That’s it…I am moving here.


Hello again from Florida!!!

Check out this dinner spread Kim’s amazing family had prepared:

We had this delicious spread which included an amazing fruit/spinach salad, as well as HOMEMADE mac and cheese.  It was heavenly.  They also had grilled chicken, which I substituted with my leftover Eggplant from lunch.

It was awful, TERRIBLE.  😉  I think if I wasn’t in the company of other human beings, I would have promptly grabbed the plate and licked it clean.  Common courtesy prevented that……..barely.

It was then time to head to Fresh Market!

Insert the biggest citrus fruit I have ever seen in my life.  Welcome to Florida, I suppose.

Bowling balls I tell you, bowling balls!!!!!

They even had FREE coffee.  This wasn’t just any coffee.  Check out the flavor, and prepare your mouth for moisture.

They also had the oddest chocolate I have ever seen.

Bacon. Chocolate.           I’m gonna let everyone think about that for a minute.  Go on, I will wait.

…..

Ok….back to goodness:

Plus the rarest dried fruit out there….dried Kiwis!

Then it was off to Publix!

Where I ran into my dear friend…

We finished grocery shopping (sad!) an headed to a fun harbor at Tampa Bay!

What a night.  Seriously best day ever!!!!!!!  I cannot wait!  Tomorrow morning I have a huge pumpkin muffin from Fresh Market to look forward to, as well as some fresh Florida fruit!  So stoked!  We also may do some shopping.  😉

G’night from down south!

P.S., how friggin cute is Kim’s nephew Ryan?!?!?

  4. There is a fresh market opening up near me and they keep pushing back the opening date! I am now more pumped and impatient than ever! lol I love how you lay on the floor for a pic in a supermarket. No shame baby! Love it.
    I hope you have fab weather the rest of the weekend!!

    I’m so jealous you are in FL with the sun, the palm trees and flip flops!

  8. That salad looked AMAZING!

    And about the bacon bar…I was at a chocolate shop that a family friend owns and she has been selling chocolate covered bacon and made me taste it. It’s surprisingly good, once you get over what it is!

    Good luck tomorrow!
