Trader Joe’s Korma Simmer Sauce

It’s been too long without an update! I haven’t abandoned the blog, but the last week has been a whirlwind. I had my orientation for the nursing program and registered for classes and then went to Chicago for the weekend for a family wedding and some bonding with my friends. I’ll provide a few photos [...]

Quick and Easy

This week has turned into a busy one. A co-worker of mine had an emergency appendectomy so I have been covering for her at work from 9-5 each day through the end of the week. My meals have been pretty boring, mostly just repeats, like some stuffed shells from the freezer and some channa masala, this time with [...]

Kashi Product Review

Hello all. I’ve had some seriously crappy deep chest cold symptoms for the past few days, but I’m feeling quite a bit better now. I appreciate all your “hospitality” to Brent while I was gone. He is a sweetheart isn’t he? As he said, he did all the grocery shopping and planning, while I tried [...]

Oikos Review

A few weeks ago, the nice people over at Stonyfield Farm asked if I would like some coupons to try their Oikos Greek yogurt. I happily agreed, because I love Greek yogurt, but often have a very difficult time justifying the price.
Whenever the option is available and money allows, I like to try to buy [...]

“Lunch”

It’s really nice out! I said that this morning to Brent, as I was forcing him to get out of bed and walk the dogs with me. It wasn’t exactly accurate at 7am this morning, but this afternoon the sun made an appearance and it’s nearly 60 degrees!
My “lunch” was kind of pitiful. I had [...]

Back to Nature Maple Nut Medley

As I’ve said before, Brent and I like to check out the clearance rack at the back of the grocery store when we go. More often than not, it’s a bunch of junk, like completely pulverized tortilla chips and whatnot. However, occasionally I spot a gem. Last week was one such occasion, when I found [...]

Product Review – Quaker Mini Delights

Yesterday I received a free sample of Quaker Mini Delights in the Chocolatey Drizzle flavor. I’ve tried a few of the Quaker rice cake products and liked them, so I thought these might be good. Not so much. The rice cakes themselves appeared unflavored, and thus had a cardboard-like quality, and the chocolate “coating” was…. chocolate [...]

Product Review – Finally!

Congratulations President Obama! My office actually hooked a laptop up to a projector showing on our break room wall and watched the inauguration live and ordered pizza for everyone, so the office pretty much shut down between 12-1. It was one of the cooler things any of my employers has ever done and I’m glad [...]
