Oh good, those girls gave me hope. I was going to say @MrsVoorhees that being a New Englander I only buy Cabot cheeses, but I wasn't sure of your listed grocers who would carry it. The pepperjack and habanero cheddar are both tasty!!
I know someone was asking about when the Reese's PB Cups stuffed with Reese's Pieces were coming out, but I'm not sure who was asking or which thread. Anyway, my local grocery store (Jewel - it's a part of the Albertson's chain) had them yesterday and they were buy 2, get 2 free...you know I did. Haven't tried them yet though...only because I forgot I bought them, not like I'm showing restraint or anything.
ETA: Just in case you try to find them...the PB Cups had their own special display just before the cash registers.

I will be buying both of them at lunch! I've been craving pepper jack for weeks but can't find one that has a kick like I want. They're all too mild for me.
@LizC216 - hip hip hooray! I was one of them, among a few others awaiting the new cup's release. Will be getting one later this week for sure! Then again.. I have a lunch break in 45 minutes and walmart isn't too far, wonder if they have them...
@AmMcc12 I LOVE Tillamook cheese! We used to stop at the factory on the way back from Girl Scout trips growing up, and grab samples every time. @LizC216 I will now be stopping at the grocery store on the way home to look for those. Thanks! I'm noticing a food theme with my thoughts today. Perhaps I should go eat something healthy.
I am such a great mom, DD had 2 oreos for breakfast this morning before going to daycare. DH side-eyed me when he saw her running around with one and all I said in response was "not my hill today" and we left.
I was being a total cranky pants this morning but I just had a breakfast sandwich from Tim Hortans and now I'm a happy camper lol it takes so little to please me
@Steephers123 - my 1.5 year old ate at least 20 raspberries when we went picking last night and it was very close to his normal dinner time. When we got home I slaved over the microwave for 45 seconds and produced 2 chicken nuggets, some corn and some shredded cheese for his dinner. He ate the corn and the cheese and I said "would you like some cookies???" My husband looked surprised as we usually offer dessert on nights that he eats a little better, and I said "hey.. he's been good, lets give the kid some oreos and go read some books before bed" We've certainly allowed cookies before daycare as well.
@LizC216 - ok! I have a gas station closer to work, I'll stop there first.. and onto Walmart if I don't find them. Husband is off today, if neither store carry them it will be his mission to locate the cups!
@LizC216 I was one of the ones wondering as well!! Thanks for the heads up! It's my birthday today, so I think that will be my birthday treat tonight!!!!
The fact that daycare feeds him healthy foods all day AND doesn't allow any screen time, means that cookies and TV when offered at home are already in great moderation. I love you daycare.
I hope you can all find the PB Cups. I edited my original post to say that they had their own special cardboard display. They weren't with the regular candy at my store. And I will also say that I checked Walgreens on a whim yesterday and they did not have them. Hopefully this helps in your search! If not, I'll start mailing them out to you guys.
Thanks, ladies! I've gotten to that age where I forget how old I am! I had to figure out whether I was 29 or 30 this morning...I'm 29...pregnancy brain!
Happy Birthday @Sbrown721 - you're about 2 months older than I am and I feel the same way! I was also surprised to see "age: 28" on my form at the doctor's this week.. like, aren't I 27? No, no I'm not. And soon I won't even be 28. How??
@LizC216 - Thank you thank you thank you!! Hopefully that'll cure my sweet tooth! Now I'm crossing my fingers that one of the local grocery stores has them.
I can't remember if/when/where people were talking about sharing/oversharing on Facebook, but I decided to create a password-protected blog for family to see pictures/stories when LO arrives. Not searchable, only visible to those I want, and greatly reduced chances of my kid having embarrassing things turn up once they hit middle school and peers start scouring the internet for dirt on each other.
@Jabreen - Omygoodness! What a fantastic idea! That solves a number of potential privacy issues while still allowing you to share with everyone who you aren't in face-to-face contact with on the regular. Love it!
@Jabreen Nice! We've taken the low effort approach of using iCloud photo share with family and close friends, but I always kind of wished we'd done a similar blog. Just for digital documentation of milestones and such. I've shared a few pics of DD on FB, but only 2-3 per year. Maybe can try a blog during maternity leave...
@AnnaS930 BUMMER!! I love that you sent your husband out on the hunt too!
LOL! he happened to text saying he was going to Target do I need anything "Why yes, yes I do as a matter of fact" he said he'd keep looking, not sure where his other stops are today, but also possible the cups haven't made it up to Maine yet.. we tend to be a bit behind! hahaha
Jabreen I did something similar with blogger (which is intergrated with google). It isn't password protected but it is not searchable so someone has to have the link to get it. I haven't been the best at keeping up the last 2 months but my family loves to read it.

I got added to my coworker's Google+ group for pictures of his twin girls because I showed a lot of interest early on. Then he, his wife, and his in-laws all started posting multiple pictures a day.. I just don't need that many updates on someone else's kids and turned off notifications. Now when he asks if I've checked Google+ lately I tell him that I have not, but encourage him to pull up some pics and show me.
All of that to say.. as adorable and amazing as you find your baby, don't have your feelings hurt if coworkers/friends aren't dying to see every time they blink. Some relatives/friends are absolutely going to want pictures all day every day, others won't.. but they don't love your babies any less!
@Annas930 That was another of my reasons to want to create a private blog vs. Facebook/Google+ updates. I have a lot of friends who post obsessively about every detail of their kids' lives. I like them, I like their kids, I don't need to know every time they say "pasketti" instead of spaghetti or have a runny nose. Now, my family can check in as often or as little as they want, and they can skim past the posts that don't interest them!
I'm using an app to location stalk my husband's phone to see if he's picking up post-appointment cookies from my favorite latin bakery since its near his dentist. He's there. Can't wait!
I have been off for a couple of days, this thread moves supafast. I'm with people who are feeling blah, I just feel dizzy and out of it and like I can't muster up enough concentration to finish a sentence. Blah.
@Megan324 man I love Tim Horton's! I am from a state that has them but now live in a state that does not. Such a bummer. I would shank someone for a Timmy Ho's breakfast sandwich.
We used to have lots of Timmy Ho-Hos here in Maine, but they all seem to be closing down. I really liked their muffins, and the Tim-Bits weren't bad either. I'm not a coffee drinker (other than as a laxative at work, heh), so I'm not sure how that ever was.

I was out of the office this morning and came back in time for pastries from an Amish bakery. Oh hell yes.
