I know it seems unlike me but I really don't like to have conversations on the medical area shuttle bus in the morning. This is my "play with my new phone time". However, this girl got on the bus last week with about a million bags, a cup of coffee and a big platter. There were no seats so she asked me to hold her coffee while she reorganized all of her stuff. I was not feeling generous enough to offer her my seat (let's be real) but i did offer to hold the platter...which meant that she then felt comfortable telling me about how she made this dessert for her coworker. HOLY. It sounded so good. I just found it online and I swear, one of you needs to invite me to a summer BBQ so I can have an excuse to make it.
FROZEN BANANA SPLIT
24 (3.5-ounce) ice-cream sandwiches, unwrapped
6 medium bananas, peeled and thinly sliced
1 (12.25-ounce) jar hot-fudge sauce
1 (10-ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained and finely chopped
1 (8-ounce) package milk chocolate covered toffee bits, divided
1 (12.25-ounce) jar butterscotch ice-cream topping
1 (8-ounce) container frozen nondairy whipped topping, thawed
Line a 13 by 9-inch baking pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place half of ice-cream sandwiches evenly over bottom of pan, completely covering bottom, cutting sandwiches to fit, if necessary. Top evenly with banana slices. Pour hot fudge sauce over bananas. Top with cherries and 1/2 of the toffee bits and pour butterscotch evenly on top. Layer with remaining ice cream sandwiches and spread whipped topping over sandwiches; sprinkle with remaining toffee bits.
Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours. Remove from pan, using foil handles. Cut into squares and serve.

And because everyone likes to go from thinking about ice cream to thinking about my feet, here's a swelling update - my feet/ankles/calves are looking somewhat normal again. Basically I drank a ton of water, stopped having any artificial sweetener, had a little bit of salt (seems counter intuitive but does help), ate a ton of asparagus, ate a ton of non-processed food, etc...I still appreciate CCBL's reaction. :)
