T stands for throngs

Fi and I headed out for a mini shopping expedition. First up Target for a few essentials, then Barnes and Noble for more essentials ( at least in our minds) Starbucks Latte and BoOkS!! And then we headed to our destination of choice...Wegman's food store

We joined the throngs of people for the grand opening on Sunday morning, and it was jam packed. Wegmans is new to our area, and will prove stiff competition to Whole Foods and Trader Joes. So much delicious food on offer. We opted to pick up some Sushi and a bottle of Sangria...nice for a treat.  We opted for the Spicy Shrimp Po Boy.  Although pretty, we decided to pass on the Dragon Fruit..
great texture




And then we finished off with a sampling dessert tray. Yum, followed by menu planning, but it is lovely to have an occasional treat.
Delicious desserts, but not in the cookbook.
We saw this glass at The Paper Store and I think it fits perfectly with this weeks T stands for...
Just a thought...
and a big thank you for stopping by. 
Thanks for visiting my blog.
Happy T day.

  1. What a fabulous day out! I remember Target from my visits to America and time spent looking at books and enjoying a cuppa sounds delightful 😁. Sushi is my favourite and I would happily join you for the sangria and dessert selection too - yum! I'm loving your card, the blue and brown colour combination is amazing and the leaf and cone embellishments, and dragonfly papers are so beautiful - perfect! Wishing you a Happy T Day! J 😊

  2. Rochester is the home of Wegmans, and their flagship store in Pittsford is my grocery store. I never take them for granted! Great produce, wonderful baked goods, and delicious prepared foods when you don't have time to cook. Don't think I've seen a spicy shrimp Po'boy, though, but now I'll be on the lookout for it!

  3. I really enjoyed reading about your day out with Fi. You are SO lucky. We have no Whole Foods or Trader Joe's here, and I have never heard of Wegmans. Shopped at the first two in CA., though. You are lucky to have such diverse choices.

    I want to sample that dessert, too, but you can keep the sushi. Especially if it's packaged.

    I laughed and laughed at that glass. It was simply wonderful. Thanks for sharing your beautiful card, your trip around town, and the glass you found for T this Tuesday. Still laughing!

  5. No Whole Foods, Trader Joe's or Wegman's here. I envy you, Nan ;-) You and Fi put together quite a scrumptious meal. The dessert sampler looks like dessert trays in expensive restaurants. I hope it tasted as good as it looked. Thanks for taking us along on your shopping trip.

    Happy T-day! Hugs, Eileen

  6. It sounds like a great day out and the visit to the new food store sounded good.
    The taster dessert pack looked delicious.
    I also smiled as I read the words on the glass, no chance of me opting for salad if those cakes were on offer.
    Happy T day wishes.

  7. Oooh, Wegman's. We visit one occassionally in Northborough. So much stuff. Everything you can imagine. Their bakery is awesome. Be sure to go back around February or March. They will have Sumo oranges for sale. Cute and ugly at the same time, but so delicious! Love your card and envelope. You know, I never thought of lining the envelope flap. Happy T Day!

  8. I have two Wegman's stores in my area and it is my weekly shopping trip (besides some in betweens)- I love this place!! Sounds like some wonderful treats you all enjoyed. I must say I got a kick out of the dessert pic with the magazine on the left with an article on healthy and bikini bodies:):) I like that drinking glass. Thanks for sharing your adventure and food, and happy T day!

  9. We have a Whole Foods but not Wegman's or Trader Joe's. I haven't even heard of Wegman's before. Most of my shopping is done in one of the huge Krogers. Boring, but they have what I need. I'm getting a big kick out of the glass lol Happy T Tuesday!
