hope you have a nice holiday and can find something in the sales tomorrow.
we're not doing the traditional foods (except for the turkey, my brother hats it & we would get ham) this year. didn't do them last year either. it's just such a hassle to make up all that stuff & then have leftovers for like 4 days.
it's a reese's peanut butter cup with some kind of chocolate goo layer on the bottom. in their larger than normal size.
noting special. and nothing to get again.
we had some 80 degree days & the start of the month. with 30 or 40 degree nights.
it's in the 60s now, but it would be in the 50s at least. normally i would be getting out my fall/winter stuff by now. instead, i just take out pants when i need them.
we need to be kept away from the aldi fancy cheese section. the last time we went, we got 5 cheeses.
coca cardona; goat milk cheese w/coca powder rind. mild coca flavor, mild cheese flavor.
mobay; layers of sheep & goat cheese w/grape vine ash pressed together. no ash taste, mild cheese flavor.
sage derby; mild derby cheese w/dried sage. unfortunate looking (looks moldy), sage give a medium-sharp flavor. some kind of limited halloween themed cheese.
1,000 day aged goulda; very dry, sharp flavor.
fontina de provence; fontina cheese rubbed w/savory herbes de provence blend. mild herb flavor, mild cheese flavor.
we also got aldi 6 cracker assortment (other stores call them entertainment crackers), which is still some good crackers. we went to target on the same day & got their version of entertainment crackers, because we're not sure if we had them before. and they have a few crackers that are a different variety then the aldi one. we will probably have to get more cheese for that.
we had seen this thing at wal-mart for awhile & finally tried it.
it's 3 desserts in 1; new york-style cheesecake, vanilla confetti cake & blondie with toffee pieces. each layer was nothing special, and the icing was way too sweet. we like sweets, but this was too much.
if you licked some of the icing then breathed on a diabetic, you'd put them into diabetic coma.
it's something new my brother spotted at wal-mart. i don't know if it's a limited time thing or not.
it was very meh. not as good at the almond one, which is just OK.
they've had their original peanut, almond, creamy peanut butter, a white one (limited time) & now pecan. what's next? walnut? macadamia?
