Hey peeps!
I have some sad news…
For the first time ever, since my little broccoli blog found itself into this world 10 months ago, there was no celebration for Pancake Sunday.
Butttt, it DOES have it’s very first piece of memorabilia! 😉
To say this weekend has been busy would be an understatement. Allow me to play it back for ya!
Prepare yourself for a photo montage…
Wait? What’s that?
Oh, just FIFTEEN cans of pumpkin…that’s all! 😉
Oh and speaking of pumpkin,
I finally made it into Starbucks for some pumpkin spice crack ala an Americano with steamed soy milk.
Hmm, who could that be in the hiding behind my cup??
I kid (shameless pun) you not, Nicole Kidman was right next to me in line at Starbucks this morning…and I now realize that I have some mad paparazzi skills…I really should think about taking up a second job! 😉
After my celebrity spotting, more excitement awaited…
True story: I’m on the interstate and I just happen to look over as I pass an exit with a Super Target. I pulled off at the next exit and turned around JUST so I could finally say that I’ve been in a SUPER Target!
And of course I managed to find some goodies!
I had to get my hands on some of the Dunkin Donuts pumpkin spice coffee since I’m squash junkie I saw it on Katie’s blog last week and well, the other items just “magically appeared” in my basket 😉
Christmas decorations in September I have a problem with…Celestial Seasonings sugar cookie sleigh ride, I do not!
Though I’m still kicking myself for not grabbing up that cranberry horsey mustard…
“Great with turkey or ham”…Ha! If it’s as good as it sounds, you can put it on a stick for all I care!
Ahem, WHY did they not have this stuff when I was a kid?!?
Then, after I finished frolicking up and down the aisles like a kid in a Goober factory, I continued on to meet my good friend Christine and her husband Donny for pizza and pottery painting. Whew, say that three times fast!
Nevermind, I just tried it and it’s not that hard;)
Mmm, gotta love Mellow Mushroom!
Even though I totally suck at math! :-/
Though this was my first painting experience, Christine and Donny are frequenters to Brushfire and are starting a little collection. He does Broadway themed pieces for her and she makes retro comic book/cartoon characters for him.
Anyone out there remember Earthworm Jim?
(yeah, really telling my age on that one!)
And the best part about Brushfire studio? It’s right across the street from Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s!
Hmm, just how many things CAN I buy with pumpkin in them?
Reminds me of this post!
Two new flavors of Power Crunch to try!
Hopefully they’re both better than the peanut butter one.
Bulk bin loving: Quick oats, whole wheat pastry flour, oat bran, and rolled oats
And I found Biscoff!! Is it sad that I’m kind of scared to try it?
Actually, I was a little worried I would be pulled over and get caught with it on the way home.
“Officer, I swear, I didn’t know when they said it was ‘like crack’ that they meant it literally!”
Oh, and not all my shopping, frolicking, and obscene amount of picture taking was foodie based…
This is what happens when you go to exchange a pair of flip flops at Old Navy and they send you out unexpectedly into a den of hungry wolves storewide weekend sale.
Both tanks were under 10 bucks and the cropped cardigan was $14.50!
Am I the only one who gets an adrenaline rush when something says 50% off? 😉
And last but not least, after intense scrutiny, the New Balances have been benched and there’s a new all-star player on the scene…
The same Asics that I had before only in black and a new pair of compression socks…hopefully I’ll be running again before too long!
Whew! I think I just made myself tired from recapping all of that! Good thing I had leftovers to fuel me through this post!
Oh and by the way this epic pizza goodness would be the “Magical Mystery Tour” from Mellow Mushroom: pesto sauce, mozzarella, portobello mushrooms, spinach, feta, and jalapenos! Mmm! Spi-saaaay!
Well, I’m off to bed (probably to have some weird jalapeno-induced dreams)! Be sure to stop by tomorrow as I make up for missing Pancake Sunday with an even bigger celebration:
Are you going to celebrate with me tomorrow?
Have you ever spotted a celebrity in public? What did you do?
