Three most dangerous places to work when you're trying to lose weight:

1) A donut hut

2) A Baskin-Robbins

3) An educational institution

If love=baking, teachers get a lot of lovin'! 

Here is the list of things I've been offered this week:

Every variety of sweet roll, muffin, bread and bagel

A bag of homemade chocolate chip cookies

A gourmet welcome-back-to-school smore (which I took one look at and threw at a grateful yet unsuspecting student like a hot potato...I couldn't even hold it for more than 5 seconds!)

And an overflowing bowl of York peppermint patties

I refused them all. And now, one week and one pound lighter, I am a woman superior to all temptation. Hear me roar...rrrooooaaaaarrrrrrr!!!

I worked at Dairy Queen one summer -- thought I'd gain a ton, but after a week of making dilly bars and having all the ice cream I wanted, I quickly grew sick of it. To this day, ice cream is my least favorite sweet -- a pint of it can last a year in my fridge. On the other hand, have you tried the Chocolate Lava cake from Trader Joe's? They are my weakness and I stay away from that section of the frozen food knowing if I go by, it'll up in my cart and on my hips! Working at Trader Joe's would be the ultimate disaster for my diet.

Cooper, nice try but, alas...no. My first job was working at Baskin Robbins as an ice cream scooper. It took about a year to love ice cream after that but I love it even more now!

Sorry :(
Ice Cream does go well with the Chocolate Lava cakes!
