Sweets 100!!!
I was looking around, as I usually do, and came across the Sweets 100 list at Veggie Girl's blog. I found this one to be quite interesting because sweets are sometimes the hardest to get right going dairy free (and healthy). I like the idea behind this one because it gives me some ideas on things I need to start working on! Besides, I think it is fun to see what people have tried! So, here is mine!

First, here are the rules:

1.) Copy this list into your site, including the instructions!

2.) Bold all of the sweets you've eaten--or make them a different type color.

3.) Cross out any of them that you'd never ever eat. (I will leave mine in regular type)

4.) Consider anything that is not bold or crossed out your "To Do" List.

5.) Optional: Post a comment here linking to your results--or just post a comment letting us know how many you've tried, or what you're going to try next!

And now, here is...
