Walmart trying to be Fresh & Easy?

Fresh & Easy (located in CA, AZ, NV) is a store that provides produce, prepackaged fresh meals, and convince at decent prices. Walmart is now trying to compete with that...but at Walmart prices. Case in point:


I am pondering this....

So....is it more of a Walmart?



Or is it more of a Fresh & Easy?



Well, the store looked like both as you can tell from the photos that I took. Fresh and Easy seems to have more gluten free choices by far. I like Fresh & Easy a lot more and they have this yummy gluten free pudding and they offer So'fella cake mix. Plus, at the Walmart I saw this...
Jerks!

My 1st time at CHIPOTLE




Stephanie was the first person to tell me how easy it is to eat gluten free at Chipotle , then I saw folks on Twitter talking about it. So, when my sister, Jacob and I needed a place to go to dinner the other night, it was a easy choice. The portions were massive! I shared my meal with Jacob in half and I still couldn't finish mine! It was so yummy! If you have not eaten there yet, I suggest going.

Betty Crocker Gluten Free Brownies & Cookies!





Two reviews in one? Hells yes! OK, it is because I have been a bad blogger...a slacker of sorts. In fact, I almost slacked tonight and put this off for yet ANOTHER night. This should really be two separate posts. I have been dedicating time to my new (and 4th blog Heartbroken Confessional), so please forgive me. I am a heartbroken blogger now, but the Betty Crocker GF brownies and cookies sure helped! They were really...hum...I should set this up like my other reviews...or I am just going to slack this so much that I am not even going to do this in my traditional form? Screw tradition!

The Cookies:


SO GOOD! I loved them. I could have eaten them all up, but I shared them! After all, gluten free sharing is caring! I only ate three! Yes, a crime because they were so good. I wanted them all to myself though. This is them before baking:
Final Product:
They were moist and chewy. These were serious gluten free perfection. Awesomely gluten free.

The brownies:

Oh my gosh! I loved the brownies more than the cookies....I didn't think that would be possible. So delish! Smelled like heaven in the oven. I served it warm with vanilla ice cream on the side:
I could eat this daily if it was a health food. It should be written as a prescription when going through a breakup. I served this to my sister and my friend Melissa and they couldn't even tell it was gluten free (but they knew it was because I was eating it).

If you have not tried these, you should! You will not regret these!

Thanks Betty!


If you follow my twitter ,you would know that I was not only waiting for the launch of these Betty Crocker Gluten Free mixes, but when they came out, the gluten free community was having a hard time locating them! Just because they launched didn't mean that they were available everywhere yet. On Sunday I spotted the elusive GF mixes at my local Fry's and I picked these up! Look for reviews on these soon! I am currenly making the chocolate chip cookies! Review should be posted tonight!

GFSteph posted a great review on the white cake mix, you should check it out here!
