What is your favourite “go to ” snack if you want to indulge?
I tend to be more of a chips person and try not to eat too much corn anything. Although popcorn every so often is a treat.
There have been new flavours ” World of Flavours” on the market for these snack foods and we decided to test out a couple. Doesn’t maple and bacon just make your mouth water?
So which one do you think is the best?
Maple Bacon potato chips OR Maple & Bacon popcorn?
James & I voted the chips and David voted popcorn.
So we opened the bags. The initial “smell” gave the popcorn high ratings. While the chips were nothing special.
After doing a careful taste test , the popcorn came out the winner! You can actually taste the maple and bacon separately. Each handful is a little different and very addicting.
And the chips…I was disappointed. They just taste like a similar flavour ( sour cream and bacon) but this time with a different name.
So…our vote is Bacon & Maple popcorn! A delicious Friday Night movie snack! James said too much of either would actually make him sick 😦
Abby liked the smell and was eager to try them, however, she had to settle with her own treats.
After the hardware store we went to the mall. We ended up browsing a lot of the shops and actually picking up some Christmas gifts. We got a few people crossed off our list today! Yay!!
There’s still a few more things I need to put up but alas… it’s pretty and cozy and I can listen to Christmas music in the appropriate atmosphere while sipping a flavoured hot drink and enjoy the very short season that is Christmas on the evenings (or days) that get dark so early. Now to get my outside lights up. BUT that’s a job for David 😀 (and there’s still LOTS of leaves)
Andrew’s wife pulled it off! She surprised Andrew, our oldest son for his 28th Birthday!
Happy 28th Andrew! Wait…How can my boy be 28?
…so more than likely we’ll have to do it again, BUT today we cleaned out the gardens and put the furniture away. The time goes back an hour this weekend and so days are shorter. It’s easier and we have more time to do this clean up on a Saturday. David has been quickly running over the lawn with the mower after work to bag the leaves, but the gardens needed a little extra…getting in there on hands and knees and raking and cutting off the dead stuff, and pruning a few limbs. It’s always a bit sad to put the furniture away but I really do enjoy all the distinct seasons we have here.
