Flipping Through Magazine

December 29, 2011

in snacks, travel

Three hours to kill before our evening flight – we took the streetcar up St. Charles and walked back on Magazine Street

Love this neighborhood! Never got a chance to explore it last year.

Remember my Shaved Ice obsession? One type I’ve been curious about is the New Orleans Sno-Ball

…wasn’t hungry at all from lunch at Cochon, though….

…so Abe played guinea pig and taste-tested one for the blog.

A kiddie-sized Strawberry…

…SWEEEEET. Not his thing, and I’m pretty certain it wouldn’t be mine, either.

After our long walk, we picked up our luggage and headed to the airport.

Preflight snacks…

…1/2 this bag…

Zapp’s Sweet Potato Chips taste really different from all their other flavors – probably because they’re “all natural”

We made it home 1am Big Easy time – I readjusted to Los Angeles with my usual 11pm hot cocoa. (Haven’t had a cup in 6 days!)

Miss ya already, NOLA.

Looks like it was a fab trip! I’m still looking at the snow-ball board trying to figure out what “Hawaiian” is…since coconut and pineapple are separate flavors. And Tiger’s Blood? I had to look that one up – berries and coconut with condensed milk…mmmmm!

Welcome home! As much as I love traveling, getting back to LA always feels so nice.
I had a ridiculous obsession with shaved ice as a kid and haven’t had one in ages. Now I’m craving it!

i actually like the regular ones they sell at TJ’s the best – they are shaped slightly thicker and have better chew! but my favorite flavor is the PB…curry would be great!

Have you ever tried Trader Joe’s stevia in your nightly hot cocoa? I’m curious because I’ve never tried it before and it’s a lot cheaper than the NuNatural’s brand.

I’ve tried other brands of stevia before (including trader joes) but they all taste very bitter to me. Nunaturals is the only one I like!
