When you let a 15 year old pick a movie and thoughts on Icelandic Yogurt.

I ran a bunch of errands last night. One of them being to this great place called "Cheese Traders & Wine Sellers". They have cheese and other goodies on the main level and wine downstairs. It's an amazing place. The cheese & goodies are reasonable. The only thing (and reason they're cheap) is because they're about to expire....but it's really like a giant treasure chest--you never know what they'll have. They've also got a huge bulk section. Jon, I think this is where I got your chocolate creme brulee.

Dialing back a few weeks, I was reading an article in Real Simple. But I was more looking at it, because I've realized I don't read magazines, I look at them, I study the photos, study the layout, the design, etc. I have piles of magazines that I've looked through, but haven't actually read yet. Anyway, this photo caught my eye..it was a still life, and one of the elements was a cup of yogurt. I mean wouldn't you be drawn to something called "icelandic style yogurt"? After a little research I found out that it's called Siggi's and made in NYC, and only sold there, or at Whole Foods.

So, back to Cheese Traders, I open the door to the cooler..and much to my surprise, there is a pile of Siggi's staring back at me. I was so excited. I had some with my waffles this morning. It is amazing! Three times thicker than regular yogurt, no artificial stuff, no high fructose corn syrup. It was so thick i could spread it on my waffles. It took my longer to eat the 6 oz cup, than it takes a fijord to melt....ok maybe not that long..but it was a commitment to get thought this...yum, so good.

Also, I went to see "The Secret Life of Bees" with Tonya last night, and it was amazing! I'd definitely recommend it. I'm still trying to figure out why she picked that over "High School Musical 3"....I mean I'm more than okay with it..but slightly puzzled.

Oh and on our way to the theater, I changed the radio station from the top 40 channel (which she always wants to listen to) back to something a little less scandalous, and we found ourselves singing along to "landslide" by fleetwood mac....awesome.....
