Kudos to my BB :)

I've been going to Smoke (the modern barbecue) a lot. First, it's right by my place and second, the prices are right up my alley, and lastly the food is deeeelish. I went to another ladies' brunch and had this humongo plate of pulled pork salad. Can you see the crunchy fried okra bits?
Then a side of their famous macaroni and cheese...
Then a few nights after the brunch, I went for dinner where I had a giant plate of barbecue (brisket and chicken), and we shared the nightly special mac n cheese, chicken and mushroom Tuesday. I didn't care so much about the side mac n cheese, but this special mac n cheese was absolutely out. of. this. world. YUM.

All these photos are taken by my good ol' Blackberry Tour. Didn't it do a good job? Oh, and check this Mr. Scruff after sniffing through the snow:
Speaking of snow...we are expected to get about a foot of snow from Sun-Wed! Two of our mountains open up Thanksgiving Day, the town is slowly waking up from the dreadful off-season! Aaaand another reason to be more excited? We have our food tasting for the new menu items at work today, yippeedadoo!

My newly found sweet tooth & a four-legged furry baby

Today's post is short and sweet. Let's begin by taking a glimpse at how better of a dog Yoshi has become (not to mention adorable...at times)!

Moooovin' on!... I've always been a savory gal, I always reached for a bag of chips rather than a candy bar, but recently I've had this sweet tooth that I can't seem to shake off! So when I went to the store yesterday, not only did I buy oatmeal butterscotch cookie dough but more importantly... the Peanut Butter & Co.'s "White Chocolate Wonderful!" 
I'm not a big white chocolate fan, but this peanut butter is the king of all peanut butters. My best friend from college Sam turned me into this bad boy junior year at NYU. I still have a vivid memory of us reaching for thirds and fourth spoonfuls from the pantry.
I love this so much, I took a spoonful with me on my commute to work! But no guilt, no shame- I can justify myself at least for a bit since this PB has "No Hydrogenated Oils" and "No High Fructose Corn Syrup." You see?
Then another loaf of the store's multi-grain bread...
 For only $1.69 (!!), you get this grainy and soft goodness! 
Perfect for a strawberry jelly sandwich- no need to be toasted, it's so nice and fluffy!
I suppose it's ciao for now! I have an awesome meal post coming up soon, but who knows when that's to come because I have my fingers crossed for Matt's visit! :)
