Because I'm an adult, that's why!

Lately I have been on a huge ice cream kick. After discovering that I can safely eat ice cream again without completely congesting up, I went on a bit of a whirlwind spree of "MUST HAVE ICE CREAM" there for awhile. I've made a spoken vow that once the ice cream currently in the freezer is gone, I'm not buying any more. Well, not unless we go to a frozen yogurt place, of course - and goodness knows, Williamsburg has enough of 'em. Not for health reasons or anything, but mainly because nobody needs ice cream on a nightly basis - not even my inner child. But it seems to totally satisfy those midnight snack cravings perfectly! My favorite as of late is Turkey Hill's chocolate chip cookie dough. So, so good. I didn't even realize it wasn't vanilla flavored ice cream until I took the time to read the last carton. *facepalm*

For awhile I was also on a huge nacho kick, too. I love nachos, and I don't even know why! Maybe from watching too much Beavis and Butt-head as a kid?

(For the record, I totally used to own this shirt.)

It bugs me that so many brands of tortilla chips are SO salty, though. I don't need the combo of salty chips and spicy salsa to burn my mouth in two ways, sorry. I finally got to the point where I was eating them as a taco salad with more lettuce-to-chips ratio to tone down the saltiness a bit. But there's something about tortilla chips smothered in a variety of toppings that makes me a happy Cara... especially when the boyfriend is pretty much the King of Nachos. He works magic with food, that one.

Here are a couple pics of some impressive plates:

Can you tell I like sour cream? I've since learned that it's easier to put the toppings in a bowl and scoop them out with the chips when eating at the computer... which I do without shame. I have a washable keyboard, after all. ;)

This post is sort of a memorial to the two. I think I'm about done with the run of "OMG I WANT TO EAT THIS EVERY DAY" for both. Of course, I wouldn't say no if a giant plate of delicious nachos magically appeared in front of me! *waits for nachos...* Darn.


My question to you: Are there any foods that are totally jiving with you lately, that you just can't seem to get enough of?
