My current audit engagement is a pretty big job. We have a big budget so we run through pretty much all our meals and snacks. I usually don't eat a lot of snacks or sweets, but for some reason, junk is all around me these days. Maybe it's also the fact that I work with mostly girls on this job, and girls just love having sweets. I prefer salty foods, but you know what they say... When In Rome. So here's my list of things I wish I hadn't eaten this month. I swear I've gained at least 5 pounds since being on this assignment....
1. Donuts - every Friday we buy them for the client and I of course grab either an apple fritter or those chocolate glazed ones.
2. Breakfast burritos - I've probably had about 4 of these in the last month. They don't look that big, but each burrito is so dense. It's got bacon, cheese, eggs, and breakfast potatoes. Weirdest part is that we eat them with siracha hot sauce or sweet and sour sauce. LOL
Don't let this picture fool you. This isn't what my breakfast burrito looks like. I'm talking about the kind you get from a ghetto hole in the wall place.
3. Pumpkin cream cheese muffin - from Starbucks.
4. Pumpkin spice latte - also from Starbucks. Just the color of the drink alone lets you know it's not a low-calorie drink.
5. Cold Stone ice cream - we bought this for the whole team one day to celebrate the intern getting an offer with the firm.
6. Haagen Daaz bar - Dark chocolate with chocolate ice cream. Had this during a meeting in the office.
7. Nestle Toll House Ice cream cookie sandwich - Found a stash of these in the client's freezer yesterday. This is the day AFTER I had just consumed #6.
8. Caramelitas. My staff Amanda gave me the recipe for these. Excellent.

9. Raspberry Chocolate Bar - from Corner Bakery
10. Golden Spoon - yes, it's fat free, but it's still Golden Spoon. Plus I put yogurt chips in it.
11. Bacon Ranch Buffalo Fries - From
Charley's Subs. It's pretty much what it sounds like. Fries covered with ranch, bacon bits and buffalo sauce.
12. Happy hour food - I've been going to a few happy hours after work with colleagues and we eat a ton of crap. To name a few... quesadillas, $2 cheeseburgers, spinach artichoke dip, chips and salsa.
13. Starbucks. Every day. I really should stop. It's hurting my wallet too.
So, what's on your list?
ok, the bacon ranch fries look good! lol. Love cold stone, my fav, birthday cake remix! Nestle toll house ice cream sandwiches: da bomb.
What I wish I didn't eat: All those freaking ribs and funnel cake. LOL.
