Happy Monday and Honey Mustard Dressing Recipe, this could actually be a Heart Tips Tuesday post as well! lol

Happy Monday Sweet Friends,

Hope you all had a delightful

 weekend!

Have to say our's was.....

We were staying with my daughter at her house

since Wednesday evening,  as her husband was

out of town working,  so we were company for

her when she was home.  We love going there 

as we love and enjoy her home and neighbor-

hood so much. It is like a lil get-away for us,

  so since the accomodations cost us nothing, 

we act like we are on vacation, and eat out 

or get take out,  which is definitely fun for

 me and for Dee too.  She and hubby did have

 to work Thurs. and Friday, so I kept myself busy

 by taking  a lil walk around the neighborhood

 (early in the morning - as it was already hot),

  had breakfast, did some reading and watched 

a lil HGTV, went in the pool for a bit, and just

 hung out with Rosie our grand- daughter dog.....

Saturday when they were both off, we planned

to relax pool side and get some sun,  but the

weather had other plans,  it was all overcast

and cloudy,  so we decided to go do some

shopping.  One stop I had wanted to make

was at a place called "Fresh Market",  had

seen it many times and had wanted to check

it out but it is about 45 mins. away from us,

so just don't go down there that much unless

we are going to see our daughter.  Dee had

been wanting to check it out too,  but just

never had.........so what a delight to all

of us......what a great store.  I was looking

for some gluten free items,  and they had

quite a good selection,  but they just had

all sorts of neat things,  a wonderful fresh

meat market and produce area,  just all

sorts of things you probably would not find

in your local supermarket.  Anyway,  our

plan was to just run in and see if they had

any gluten free bread and crackers........

Well, we were all so delighted with the

place we all wanted to stay and look around

a while,  and so we did and I found quite

a few cool new items that all taste great.

None of us can wait to go back......lol

So we were very impressed....I checked

to see if it is a chain store and it is,  they

have them all over the U.S......so if you

are interested in a healthy type grocery

store,  check online for your city and

state for a "Fresh Market" store,  I 

guarantee you want be disappointed.
Here's a few of the items we bought.

 The cereal and the crackers are very good,  but we
 haven't tried the Quinn microwave popcorn yet,  but 
will let you know if we like it when we do..........

This is something I probably never would have
gotten if we weren't a lil hungry and had more
places to go................is bagged popcorn,
but am so glad we were hungry as it is really
good,  and healthy and has the perfect amount
of salt..............not overly salty at all.
So will probably definitely buy this again.

 Have not tried this Bruschetta sauce yet, but
plan to try it tomorrow night and make Bruschetta
chicken.  This is made in Canada,  and we used
to get another brand from Canada that we loved,
but then BJ's  quit carrying it.(BJ's is like a Sam's 
club in case you never heard of them). Don't use
them anymore anyway.

Have shown you this before, but it was
in smaller packets,  this is a larger box,
and these pancakes are awesome.
They are not gluten free tho,  but they
are delicious,  and they are heart 
healthy, and all the other products
are heart healthy as well.

Oh we also found some Tate's cookies

there,  and they had her gluten free

Chocolate chip cookies,  so we got some 

and you can not tell the difference.

We returned home Sat. evening after a

fun day with Dee.........those 31/2 days

were such a gift.  It was fun to be with

our girl,  and it was relaxing and refresh-

ing and just nice to be in another envir-

ionment.  Think we get a kick out of their

house because when we were their age

our house was decorated in modern, with

bright colors (bright yellows and greens)

 with lots of white too.

So brings back old memories for us......

It always amazes me how just a few days

 out of my regular routine and surroundings

 just inspires and rejuvenates me so........
