valentine's day 2024

 

hope you had a nice holiday, even if you spent it alone.

hopefully you can get some discounted candy tomorrow, before all of the easter stuff is put out. even tough some places have had a section of easter stuff since the beginning of january.

strawberry shake* M&Ms

 a limited time flavor thing for valentine's day we got from target.

not good, as is the case with most strawberry-flavored things. i should've said no when my brother suggested them. but he never agrees to it when i suggest getting limited time flavors of M&Ms.

 

*they can't be called "milkshake" because that  requires there be milk in them.

two more little debbie ice creams

 found apple pie & turtle brownie at wal-mart in the discounted frozen area. we had never seen them before, so i don't know why they were discounted. wal-mart will do that sometimes. you see stuff you never saw before in the reduced/discount areas and it's nearly expired, but you've never seen the product before in the regular prized area.

apple pie tastes cinnamon-y & no apple taste to be found.

turtle brownie is a nice chocolate-y ice cream, but i didn't notice any caramel & there were very few nuts.

cheesecake factory brown bread

 we've heard about this "famous" bread for years. wal-mart sells it and after years of going back and forth on getting it, we decided to try it.

nothing special. it really is just pumpernickel with a bit of molasses.

Chocolate Frosted Donut kit kat

 the latest kit kat flavor discovered at wal-mart.

not really good. kind of smelled like coffee, as happens with cheap chocolate.

they keep trying with these flavors & none have been that great.

it is cold!

 winter is finally here.

freezing temperatures with either snow or sleet.

it might warm up next week, but not as much as it has before.

Veggie Blends Cheerios

 a new cereal we discovered at wal-mart. we got the blueberry banana one.

it has a 1/4-cup of added fruit and vegetables per serving. and it doesn't taste good.

but if you're looking to eat more fruit and vegetables it might be helpful.
