What's on your Photo Friday Menu?

Excuse me while I'm here in my corner!!

We gotta move to a big metropoli so I can have these things.

LOL!! I can relate about a metropolis. Madison isn't very big (about 250K), but it's close enough to Chicago that it's an easy weekend trip. We stock up on certain things whenever we go there..

Sugar free baklava? OMG, I"m going to have to try to find that when I'm there in May.

I get it at the Pita Inn (a regional chain in the Chicago area), but I'm sure they get it from a wholesale bakery - which means other places probably have it as well. I know they get their cookies from Hassoon Bakery, but I just got on Hassoon's Web site and I didn't see it on there. I'll try to find out where they get it. Pita Inns are only in the 'burbs, I think - so if you're going to be downtown, I'll see if I can figure out where to get it down there.

if you have time, and depending on when you're there, it'd be fun to meet up -- I'm not all that far. Maybe we can meet up with Greateight, too! And Artchik!!

That would be awesome! A midwest meet up!

Honestly, it never occurred to me to even look for sugar free baklava just because it's all honey nut goodness; now I"m going to have to find a source for sure.

if we end up being able to arrange a Chicago meet up, another option is for me to pick some up at a Pita Inn while en route downtown. But I'll see if I can figure out who the wholesaler is, too. Now I'm curious...

I just did some googling. Not sure if this is where Pita Inn gets its sugar free baklava, but lookee here - in the city, too!

I really like the coconut ones, too. I wasn't crazy about them at first, but they've really grown on me. They have a "rich" taste - I feel like I'm drinking something caloric, but I'm not. I esp like the coconut mango one.

I really like the pomegranate one, too....

they're kind of pricey, but a nice change sometimes - convenient first thing in the morning or in the middle of the night. Plus sometimes I get really sick of water and Crystal Light - so i'll have one of those instead. At least it keeps me drinking..
