Happy Day

My lust for salt + vinegar potato chips knows no bounds. And today I found the BAKED version I so need. Trader Joes, you had me at hello.

Avocados don't freeze

Ugh. Trader Joe's rare fail this week. I saw they are now carrying frozen avocado halves, which I picked up to use in my avocado salad from Racheal Ray's recipe here. The texture is all wrong. They might be OK in a guacamole but just chopped plain? No thanks. But that's OK, TJ, I still heart you something fierce. And we all make mistakes sometime!

Noodles

Lordy loo! Today was glorious for I found the elusive sesame soba noodle bowls at Trader Joes! The are really tasty and vegan, too. (I'm not vegan but like to eat meat free lunches as much as I can). I thought these might be a west coast only item but there they were, right in front of me in Cary, NC!
