Whole Foods Adventures

Went to the great Whole Foods in Green Hills (mine to the left which is where Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban frequent, but I've yet to see them) again recently, it's probably a once a week trip. Since I've never been to a Whole Foods before I moved south, I told myself that every time I go, I would buy something 'new' or 'weird' and try it. Some of the things so far I bought were: Almond butter - kind of like Nutella but different taste, amaretto-ish, not a fan of the grittiness, Coconut milk - drank a couple sips and dumped it out, Rice milk - like it and still buy it regularly, Red snapper - great with just some garlic, lemon, s+p in a pan. That's all I can remember for now, but I'll post more if I remember

Marlee is also a huge fan of Whole Foods, she gets some holistic All Natural Dog Food (corn and wheat free since her food allergies acted up once we moved south to the Nashville Dustbowl), Newmans Own organic dog treats (turkey and sweet potato), frozen dog food meals, and a whole bunch of other expensive items that I buy for her and get no thanks in return for. 

My newest purchase is buckwheat soba noodles. I'm thinking about making a sesame/soy/ginger sauce to go with it I had back in Albany once at DeJohn's Restaurant (great martinis!) - probably post it when I make it, if it turns out good.

What a delicious  mess!

I'm currently making my own cucumber vodka. I was at Virago sushi bar and had a drink mixed with it, the only thing to describe it was refreshing. That should be done in a week or so and if that turns out good then I'll post the recipe for it along with the drink.

Since no food with this post, I'll post a pic of the foot-long chili cheese dog I had at the Predators hockey game the other night before I went to work, lets just say that work was shitty that night.
