Christmas in August

Okay, not really.  But getting some goodies from Trader Joe’s always seems extra special because 1. I don’t go there that often and 2. the store is filled with so many things you can’t find anywhere else.

I went yesterday to pick up some goodies for my foodie pen pal, and I couldn’t help but walk out with a few things of my own (after paying for it, of course).

Because pictures of food are better than my banter, I’ll make those the heart of my post:

Alternative to potato chips

Complete impulse buy

Sauce for yellow curry with tofu

Of course I got these

And my absolute favorite thing I bought:

Frozen Greek Yogurt

Honestly, I was a little worried about this.  I got it because it is healthier than typical ice cream, but I was afraid it would taste exactly like it’s name — like frozen greek yogurt.  In other words, I thought it would have a sour cream-like taste.

Let me tell you, this stuff is fantastic!  It tastes just like vanilla frozen yogurt, with a hint of lemon (weird, I know), and it is absolutely delicious.

Because I was worried about the taste, I did buy a jar of this to sweeten it up:

Caramel Sauce

But, even though the frozen yogurt is delicious on it’s own, adding caramel doesn’t hurt :)

And now, I leave you with this adorable picture from last night — Milo, absolutely pooped after a day at daycare.

Hope you don’t feel like this today.  Have a great Wednesday!
