Today was our “field trip” to Whole Foods. It was a great time with great friends! Our day began with lunch at Seasons 52. Our table was arrayed with garlic chicken flatbread, buffalo- in the form of a burger and in a bowl of chili, and spinach salad with raspberries, pine nuts, and gorgonzola. Lunch was finished with mini indulgences of chocolate peanut butter mousse and rocky road.

After a shopping opportunity at IKEA, we headed over to Whole Foods. It is a much more productive and enjoyable experience when you are childless for the day! I was able to pick up some old favorites like Pirate’s Booty, Larabars, and, my personal addiction, cornbread from their bakery (see picture below- ahhhhh!). I also picked up some new items to try including Kashi’s latest additions, Indigo Morning cereal and Simply Maize cereal. I bought a box of 365 mac and cheese. This must be tested and approved by the kids before I purchase it again. Tonight we tried Stonyfield Farms’ Minty Chocolate Chip frozen yogurt- yummy!! Because this day was such a success, trip #2 is already in the works. So if you missed this one, we will be heading back over sometime this summer.
