an incomplete wish list

I’m sure I’ve touched on my love for grocery shopping before but the truth is, give me a market/grocery store of sorts over a mall any day. What boutiques are to fashionistas, health food stores and food marts are to me.

I can’t get enough.

I could honestly spend hours in the grocery store just walking around the aisles, browsing at items, and dreaming of an endless food supply fund.

I most often get stuck in the nut butter aisle. If there was a nut butter stocker who was designated for those shelves only…well lets just say we would be on a first name basis. In fact, we would probably be on the whole “come over for Christmas dinner!” terms of friendship already. And that’s just for one trip to the grocery store. I’m not even talking a full year. One nut butter browsing and we would practically have exchanged best friends bracelets. or silly bands. or whatever it is the kids do these days to mark their territory.

So I think it most appropriate to top my Food Wish List list off with nut butter.

1. Nuttzo

Why? I’ve been dreaming of it ever since I first read about it on KERF. I have yet to add it to my love life.

___

2. Peanut Flour

Why? I can’t find it anywhere near me. I’m a tad bit jealous of all the wonderful recipes and clever concoctions going around in the blog world using peanut flour. I feel left out, to say the least.

___

3. Trader Joe’s Sesame Honey Cashews

Why? I had them once and they changed my life. Actually can I just have Trader Joe’s in general? That would be perfect.

___

4. Dark Chocolate Dreams PB

Why? Do I even need to explain this? I think you already know.

___

5. Gluten Free Granola

Why? Because it’s another thing that I love but never buy because I always say I can just make it myself. Do I make it myself? …..

___

6. Gift Cards

Why? Because so often I’ll want to buy something and I won’t. A gift card means I have to make a purchase. It’s a great incentive to get a little something special. And it’s a perfect excuse for spending without really spending since gift cards don’t technically count as money…right?

Note: You may notice there’s a trend here. I kind of really like nut butters. There are tons of goodies out there though, since I can’t tolerate gluten, any gluten-free goodies are good in my book. (Did you get that Santa?)
