my random trip to the mall

i walked into the mall today and thought "mmmm smells like christmas!" like roasted cinnamon nuts. but when i walked back out an hour later, i realized the smell was not inside the mall -- it was only between the double-door-entryway. it's like the put a fake air freshener in there to get you in the christmas spirit and consequentially spending lots of money!! scam artists.

during the same mall outing i found something wonderful. there is now a TCBY at fashion place mall! and this is not your 10-year-old vanilla waffle cone type of TCBY. think: frogurt on steroids. $0.39 per ounce of any combination of self-serve yogurt and toppings. the flavors looked AMAZING and they had every topping you could think of. AND they had a digital touch screen soda machine with over 100 flavors: diet raspberry coke, orange sprite, lime fanta, etc. it's only $1.00 for a BIG soda and $0.50 for a refill. i might be taking more walks over there :)

i finally tried the gorgonzola-pear pizza from CPK. i've been wanting to try it forever! it was pretty good but could have used more gorgonzola. thanks to alisha's cousin elias for 20% off :)

i hate schubach jewelers. never buy there. the manager mike is a dick. he tried to schmooze some leftover pizza today and it took all my willpower not to say, "right after you give back all the time, energy, and tears you have taken from me over the last two years. right after you return the sales price of my ring since i went through four rings before you f***ers gave me one in which the diamonds stayed in the setting longer than 24 hours. right after you let my husband punch you in the face, which you are lucky he didn't do to you last time we were in here." but i didn't say it. i just got my ring cleaned and left :)

***x-rated bonus random tidbit: i got quite the surprise while googling "roasted nuts" to get a pic for this blog!!!!!!
