Have some more yoghurt, have some more Spam

Lots of foody purchasing stuff this weekend.
I went to Dittmer's and said "I want a little bit of this, a little bit of this, one link of that, and..."
I ended up with tasty bits of... half a dozen to a dozen meaty meats. Looking forward to full on snacking--maybe as part of my pre-work Thanksgiving holiday. Also went to Starbucks and found the sweet orange not-tea. The manager was very pleasant and helpful and said she can't find the Cinnamon Spice on her order sheet, but if I can find a SKU number, she'll try to get it. The counter girl said I should try Trader Joe's, and I was dubious because I hadn't seen their name on the Tazo website. So I went and my dubiosity was confirmed. But I ended up coming home with ummmm more of the TJ's microwave Indian meals for work, more Altoids, and more simmer sauces--Italian this time.

Yum.

Must it be Tazo??

It was nice seeing you this afternoon... ;-) It made my day.

It doesn't have to be, but I don't know as I've seen this blend elsewhere. Cinnamon teas, sure.
And oh yeah, I forgot panini with vanilla Coke. (And four star pork.)

Ah... so you liked your lunch?

It was pleasant--not great, but good. I think the company was better. The foodie part of the afternoon was wandering around Ferrari's afterward. (XOMG the wholesome high quality goodness.)

Awww :) The company was wonderful :D

I adore A.G. Ferrari's!!!

For a foodie experience to really write home LJ about, come to the city with me sometime :D

Four star pork? Is that like General Zog's chicken?

PUNY MORTAL! KNEEL BEFORE ZOG!
Um. I'm not sure. It's got lime juice and garlic and peppers and maybe some other stuff and it kicks my ass on a regular basis--it rides the borderline for my limits as far as spicy hot things that I want to eat.

A number of places on the web seem to think that the SKU is 206205, if that helps. You can also buy it on the web.

Ooo!
And I looked on the web, but they usually want between 50% and 200% of the price of the order for S&H. So I told them to sod off.

Try the Thai curry simmer sauces from Trader Joe's. Specifically, the red one is best. :)

Hmmmm. I haven't seen the Thai sauces, but I'm very fond of the Indian ones. Spinach curry, korma, masala....

The Cuban simmer sauce is also most excellent!

I liked the mojito, it was very tangy. But it was also very cilantro-y.
