Snap #8 – Try New Products
Last week-end I went to my local Von’s to purchase Lifesavers. Unable to find them, I asked a clerk for help. She looked at me as if to say, ‘What planet did you just arrive from?Instead she said, “We haven’t sold Lifesavers for years. Try Mentos orIcebreakers.”
Say, what?
Today let’s celebrate the best of France: Bastille Day, honoring France’s Independence from the monarchy in 1789
Mentos and Icebreakers///Walgreens
That’s when I noticed many products on the shelves that were new to me. So, every time I go to the grocery store, I purchase something new…………..and, here’s the catch, I Actually Make Myself Use It.
Spaghetti, 42″ long///Italian Speciality Shop; Soba Buckwheat Noodles///Safeway
Old-Fashioned? Snap Out of It.
Sugar, Chocolate, Coffee Bean Grinder (this is fabulous)///Trader Joe’s
I am addicted to soba noodles! Need any recipes? I love the sugar, chocolate and coffee bean grinder you gave me, it is amazing on plain Greek yogurt. The Mentos and Icebreakers, I must say “yuk”, I would continue the search for Life Savers.
How about a “If It’s Saturday, It Must Be Soba’s Soirée”, make some dishes together, and have our friends join us for the Feast!
