Whelp, I didn’t do much cooking this weekend. I did get a new digital camera and new (free replacement) iPhone though! WOOOHOO!
I contemplated getting a digital SLR camera, but in the ended I decided to go with the Fujifilm Finepix S2550HD, which is a higher end point and shoot camera. Down the road I may invest in a digital SLR camera, but I felt I needed to learn more about photography before taking such a big (financial) leap. Ok, I’m cheap. 🙂
Here’s some random pictures I have taken so far with the camera. I’m still learning how to use all the functions but I especially liked how these turned out. I’m looking forward to my free class at Van’s Camera to learn everything!
This weekend was pretty action packed. And by action packed I mean lots of shopping, driving around, nonstop errands, and eating foods that I didn’t cook 🙂
For breakfast this morning I had a Mama Lupe’s low carb tortilla, blueberries, and Trader Joe’s Crunchy Almond Butter that I cooked up on the george foreman grill:
Tried the Vanilla Almond Luna Bar and the Nuts over Chocolate.
Both were pretty tasty (Luna never lets me down apparently), but I wouldn’t rank either of them at the top of the pack because I wished the flavors were stronger in both bars.
Also tried a Pecan Pie Larabar… I ate one small bite and tossed the rest. Bummer. I’ve got some good feedback from you guys though, and it looks like Key Lime Pie, Cherry Pie, and Coconut are the flavors I need to keep an eye out for!
After getting my iPhone replaced, we headed to Tropical Smoothie Cafe at Legacy Village for lunch. I ordered the Jerk Chicken Wrap, apple, and a Very Berry Green Tea Smoothie. Jarrod got the buffalo chicken wrap and a Muscle Blaster smoothie.
We both loved everything we ordered and definitely want to try the cafe out again since their menu had a lot to offer.
After lunch we hit up Trader Joe’s! Here’s what I picked up this time:
I had one of the chicken sausages for dinner along with some of Jarrod’s special oven baked cajun potatoes:
Delicious!
