Shrinking Stella

I went to a new market this weekend, FAIRWAY !!! (I cheated on my good buddy Trader Joe’s) Let’s just say I was in shopping heaven.. When you walk in you step into a great produce section that makes most farmers markets look small (I will confess it was not cheap and I can get produce cheaper at the local farmers markets) then you move onto a very nice nut and dried fruit area, I actually picked up some dry roasted chickpeas, oohh yum! then you go onto a hot area. I kinda skipped over that area. The next amazing area was the cheese and olive area ~ OMG I could have stayed there and looked at the cheese for hours if Kassie was not with me, a 5 year old at 7pm was not fun… Then the coffee area…aaahhhhhh…… Lets just say they had a ton of neat stuff that made me want to cook for hours, I really didn’t buy much since I needed a plan and was too far away from home to really think about it but I am so going back !! I did find Kamut cakes, I tried them today and they tasted just like a rice cake. They are better for you since they do not have rice, and Kamut actually has vitamins, minerals and protein.. I slathered mine with peanut butter as my afternoon snack.

I also picked up some yellow, green and red curry so I will be coming up with new dishes soon…
