ode to food

i don't know what it is but i really love going to the supermarket. even if i don't really need anything in particular i still enjoy strolling through the aisles. ever since i was a child, i got so excited to take trips there. of course as a tiny tot the supermarket is a glorious mecca for nummy treats and trying to sneak things into the cart without mom looking (which i still do, to this day) but anyway, last week on one of my frequent sojourns, as i was perusing the perimeter of the store i happened to pass by a huge display of peeps since easter is just around the corner. it got me thinking that it would be a delicious idea to make s'mores with peeps instead of regular marshmallows!
to my dismay as i was doing my google images search for the above illustration, i found that someone has already beaten me to this discovery!!! oh well.. i still think it will be fun and delicious to try making them.

tonight after dinner with a friend in the city, i finally got a chance to try the famous "red mango". i just happened to be passing through the neighborhood and my friend was a fro-yo virgin so we ventured inside. i forgot to mention pinkberry was right across the street! but since i like to go against the grain and since i think pinkberry is teh yuck, red mango was the obvious choice. the interior was very very clean and modern and RED. but onto the taste test which is the most important. the reason why i don't like pinkberry is because the yogurt is so icey. i like my yogurt to have a nice creamy texture which red mango's did. however i also like the yogurt to have the subtle tartness that regular yogurt has. red mango lost in this category. however, the fruit toppings were plentiful and it was amusing to see the over-achieving attendant flaying and fanning out my choice of banana over the swirl of yogurt. in conclusion i must say YOLATO STILL RULES SUPREME!


last but not least, bitnubz suggested that we take a trip out to the city this week to try out this great little cafe that she loves. cornershop is supposed to have the bestest corns ever. so i asked her if it was like the mexican corn that is showcased in one of my favoritest movies of all time, Nacho Libre.
it better be goooood bitna! hehehe
