We’re back in Buffalo! We made it home without losing any limbs or luggage and managed to eat only healthy, delicious meals; I call that a winner travel day!
To start the morning my aunt took me to Atwaters, a local bakery her neighbor owns, to buy a loaf of bread and some provisions for our drive.
I also picked up an iced coffee with skim milk.
Adam and I hung out with my family as long as we could (my cousin just got back from study abroad in Costa Rica and had amazing pictures!) but soon it was time to hit the road.
You know we couldn’t leave Baltimore without self-serving one more frozen yogurt.
I got a mix of cookies and cream and taro yogurt topped with strawberries, bananas, Oreo, sprinkles, and rainbow jelly.
The rainbow jelly took my joy over the top, although now I’m going to be missing froyo and bubble tea!
Typically vacation food goes downhill once you get into the car, but today we were ready and we kept things gourmet. I bought this Tofu Bahn Mi at Atwaters in the morning and it ended up being the perfect brunch.
Bahn Mi is a Vietnamese sandwich made with pickled veggies. Typically it is very spicy but this one was pretty mild (my only complaint).
Lunch was also a sandwich, but not just any sandwich.
Bee’s Knees Honey Peanut Butter (good), homemade strawberry jam (better), and Dakota bread (best).
Best damn pb & j I’ve ever had! I’m seriously amazed by how good this bread is each time I eat it.
We were pretty well prepared but sadly I spent the last few hours in the car dying of hunger. Adam had a huge bag of m&m’s that made the whole car smell like chocolate and it was all I could do not to pour them down my throat. I managed to wait, but once I picked up our dinner on the way home I could not keep my hand out of the bag of chips.
Many many (way too many) chips were consumed this evening.
We are out of veggies, actually we are out of everything, so I picked up rice bowls from Moe’s for dinner.
My bowl was rice, black beans, tofu, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed onions, sautéed green peppers, lettuce, cheese, corn salsa, and cilantro.
I scarfed that bad boy.
Time to unpack!










Hey! Now that you’re back I’d love to plan a little blogger/reader meet-up… maybe at Merge? Or we can do a picnic up at Bidwell or in the park… so many options! And I’m with you… why no froyo in Buffalo? It is a bust. The closest thing (ack, not even really) is that fro yo place with toppings over at the NF outlets. And the fruit/toppings there are of the defrosted variety. Meh! Also, I love that you went to Mr. Yogato. When I lived in DC, that was my fav. I love the olive oil as a topping! I also love the owner’s business card — under his name, it reads: “Man of Yogurt.” That’s my kinda guy!
Yay, planning a meet-up would be awesome! I might actually being going out of town again this week but I’ll let you guys know.
“Man of Yogurt,” that is awesome! I tried to stand on my tip toes with my eyes closed for 10% off but I fell over 😀
