Maple Sugar & Cheater Indian Food
Hubby and I started off our morning with some cheater Indian food from Tandoor Chef. I usually make oatmeal but I wasn’t feeling it since I didn’t have any bananas and we were in a time crunch as my ‘rents and G-Ma were on their way to pick us up to go visit a few sugar houses. So thanks to Tandoor Chef who generously sent me a few samples to try we had pocket sandwiches which were yummy and had a really nice spice to them.
One feature I love about this product is how I can say everything that is on the package and how Tandoor Chef uses all natural ingredients so you can eat yummy food with out the gross additives.
The ‘rents and G-Ma finally showed up and we headed out to Morse Farms to see some sugaring and taste their maple syrup. Unfortunately they hadn’t really started cooking the syrup when we arrived so we took a few fun pictures and headed into the store to taste the various syrups. Before we left we went back to the sugar house to see the sap boiling.
After visiting Morse Farms we decided to stop for some lunch at Julio’s Cantina in Montpelier for summer yummy eats. I got the veggie tacos which were filled with grilled mushrooms, onions, peppers, zucchini and summer squash and hubby got the veggie burger with his favorite fiesta fries. After lunch we headed to Plainfield to visit another sugar house- Braggs. This is my favorite of the two because it is smaller and I love their sugaring house. Neil and I went to get our yearly maple steam facials (haha) – it smells crazy good in the sugaring house and the steam is fun to bask in.
Once we got home Neil and I headed out to AT&T to pick up a cover for my work iPhone (per request of my boss) and I got a really fun dark pink one. Then I cam home and had a great elliptical sesh and then a short power yoga sesh from yogadownload.com. I had worked up a mini appetite after my workout so Neil and I shared a Jazz Apple sprinkled with a little cinnamon. I decided that this was a perfect opportunity to try out my Biokleen Produce Wash which is great not only for washing produce but for cleaning your cutting boards. I will be hosting a giveaway for this product soon! I really loved it and to my surprise did not leave any residue on the apple.
Tonight we decided it was time to relax on the couch with a little bit of TLC’s Hoarding which my nice daddy recorded for us since we don’t have cable. That show is crazy I couldn’t imagine living like that! We sipped on some new spring beer that I found at the Co-op Anchor Steam Brewing’s Bock Beer. This beer was so tasty I think a new favorite. We also decided to make dinner easy and had some more Tandoor Chef this time Pakora’s and Dal Rajastani. They both were tasty however the pakoras were a bit dry for us. Overall yummy though!
Question: What did you do this weekened? Oh and what is your favorite cheater meal?
