Friday Favorites ~ volume 2 ~ Food Edition

Cotton Candy Grapes

I first heard about these from my husband.  Then I saw them at the grocery store the other day and I HAD to get them.  I personally don't think they taste like cotton candy, but they are very sweet and have almost a vanilla cupcake aftertaste.  My husband says they taste like Cotton Candy Bubble Yum.  I've never had that flavor of Bubble Yum so maybe that's why I don't see it (taste it?).  Nevertheless, I enjoy the sweetness and ate a third of the bag on the drive home from the store.

I didn't make it out to the beach this summer, so i didn't get to buy any fudge from Candy Kitchen.  I know, it's sad, right!?  But while I was at Fresh Market buying cotton candy grapes, I stopped by the bakery and they had this delicious fudge.  I may not have gone to the beach this summer, but at least I got some fudge!

My husband and I went to Starbucks the other day and they didn't have any cake pops!  I was pretty bummed about that.  Today I stopped in to grab a quick coffee and they had cake pops!  I usually get the pink one (Birthday Cake) but today I got the yellow one (Sweet Lemon).  It wasn't as lemony as I had hoped, but it's still a cake pop, and it's still amazing.

I'm so excited for Fall and pumpkin flavored everything!  But also, apple flavored everything!  A couple years ago my husband and I went apple picking and got all kinds of apple flavored treats.  Then I made a caramel apple cheesecake.  Today I saw caramel frosted apple cookies in the store and it immediately reminded me of Fall and apple picking.  It took everything in me not to buy them, but I know before the month is over, there will be a box of these in the cupboard.

I'm not usually a fan of carbonated drinks, but I love the appley goodness of this one. You need something to wash down the cookies, right?
