The Ice Cream Project, part 1: Peanut Butter Cup

Welcome to The Roost. This is the house we live in, characterized by bright colors, a vegetable garden, and a fireplace that doesn't work (or so says our landlord). A new initiative at The Roost is to not reward ourselves with food. In theory this means that we won't indulge in sweets, telling ourselves things like "I went to the gym last month so it's ok that I ate an entire package of double-stuf oreos in half an hour." In reality we have merely been compelled to fabricate completely unrelated excuses to eat junk food.

Enter the Ice Cream Project. In an effort to give purpose to our near-constant craving for Ben and Jerry's (it was on sale last night), Leigh and I have decided to embark upon a treacherous and delicious journey in which we critically and objectively analyze every flavor of Ben and Jerry's ice cream available to us at the local grocer's.

This week's topic: Peanut Butter Cup. Because we can, analysis has been video-recorded for your viewing pleasure.



Overall scores: 7 from Leigh, 7.5 from Abby
We hope this sparks much insightful discussion.
