With summer being in full swing here in Lubbock I have noticed that people are working closer and closer to meet certain personal health and fitness goals. Some are trying to find the perfect workout or diet to get that summer body fine tuned. While most are finding the perfect kale to smoothie ratio I will be indulging in the finer things in life. These are the 10 foods I WILL NOT be giving up this summer.
1. Coffee.
Give me the biggest, meanest, sweetest cup of Joe you have Starbucks. If I am going to drink a gourmet coffee, I might as well rake in all the calories.
2. Queso.
A Tex-Mex staple. Give me all the cheesy goodness this summer. Throw out the kale chips and hand over the corn chips.
3. Donuts.
What better companion to your coffee than a fried piece of dough covered in sugar?
4. Chocolate.
Any and every type. I LOVE Chocolate.
5. Fried Chicken.
I love any type of chicken but fried chicken happens to be my weakness.
6. French Fries.
Whats my favorite kind of fry? Well, french fries of course! These guys will be sticking around this summer.
7. Steak.
I love me a good steak. Be like Ron Swanson and indulge in that red meat this summer.
8. Snow Cones.
The summertime is snow cone season- end of story. With Lubbock being the birthplace of Bahama Bucks how could I turn a snow cone down?
9. Ice Cream.
I love this sweet treat on a hot summers day. How could I possibly say no?
10. Watermelon.
Yes this may be a fruit but it still contains a whole lot of sugar. Watermelon is a summer staple. What else would I be eating on the 4th of July?
