Over the weekend I went to a Super Hmart in Northern Virginia. This place is fantastic. Had a very delicious and affordable lunch. I ordered a soup with bits of tofu, meat and veggies in it. It reminded me of Miso but with a bit of heat to it.

Hmart is a Korean supermarket but they offer lots of other Asian groceries. My husband send me information on a few in our location. I just hope it's as super as the one we went to.

M & M's has released a coconut flavored M & M's. I do love coconut but I was skeptical. But I was pleasently surprised. I think I will stick to Mounds for my coconut and chocolate indulgence.

Recently while grocery shopping the husband noticed that our freezer section had a few containers of Turkey Hill ice cream which were popcorn flavored. Though I do love popcorn and recently did purchase girl scout cookie ice cream. But I can't stand popcorn flavored jelly beans so I sure won't be purchasing the ice cream.

I am so excited the film Julie/Julia. is being made into a film. I loved the book by Julie Powell.

I was kind of annoyed though when I saw Norah Ephron's name in big letters partly taking credit for adapting the book into the screenplay.



I hope people realize the brilliant story is because of Julie Powell's who spent a year cooking the recipes of the wonderful Julia Child.

Ever since I had my first taste of the yummy baked goods of Tim Horton's in Toronto a few years back I was hooked. I was happy to see them in Maine last summer and I yelped with glee when the hubby mentioned they have now opened 12 locations in New York city.

Their baked goods are so go good. Fluffy, fresh and clean. However they are partnering with Reise (owns Dunkin Donuts in NYC) and they're decor is a bit off putting. Hopefully Tim Horton's food will encourage people to eat there.

I recently got the opportunity to attend a Met game at the new Citi Field. Beautiful new stadium. Roomy and more importantly for me has a lot more food options.

Now I enjoy a sausage and peppers and peanuts at a game. But sometimes a person would like a bit more variety.

Citi Field now also offers, Sushi, Mexican, upscale burgers and fries and BBQ!

And not just any barbecue but Blue Smoke BBQ. We ordered ribs and a pulled pork sandwich. Both were very flavorful, perfect amount of sweet to savory for the ribs and the pulled pork had a bit of cumin in it which is one of my favorite spices.
