Chattahoochee Bend State Park and hanging out with Gayle and Danny - 2024/11/15

Continuing our visit to Atlanta, after our morning lunch at Truett's Luau, we hopped in the car and headed South West to Chattahoochee Bend State Park! There, we get to meet up with our friends Danny and Gayle! We first met them in Minnesota a couple summers back when we were both RV road tripping and happened to be staying at the same Boondockers Welcome. 

We've since stayed with them at their place called Sunset Holler in Alabama, but they're making an hour drive to come meet us at the State Park!  

Visiting Truett's Luau - A Hawaiian Chick-fil-A Experience - 2024/11/15

Theresa, the kids, and I are big Chick-fil-A fans. Last year, right around this time, it was such a fun opportunity to get to visit the very first Chick-fil-A ever in Hapeville Georgia. The Chick-fil-A Dwarf House! I was telling someone at our local Chick-fil-A about it and they asked me if we'd ever gone to Truett's Luau. Truett's Luau? Yes, a Hawaiian themed Chick-fil-A restaurant! I've never been, but now I want to!

And so, we planned a fun weekend in Georgia! There's lots of things going on this weekend, but our first stop is Truett's Luau! 

2024 Summer Trip - Rhode Island - 2024/08/04

Jumping back to our summer of travel, it's time to continue on! We got all packed up and left our friends the Coutures, and headed out. 

2024 Fall Foliage Trip - Apple Cider Donuts, Six Flags Lake George - 2024/10/04

Let's continue our visit up to New York and our time checking out the fall foliage and all the other offerings! 

Pringles Mingles - A New Offering from Pringles - Taste Test

Something new from Pringles? How can they do something new?

Usually it's just new Potato Crisp flavors from Pringles, but today I found something that is all together different than their usual chips. 

Pringles Mingles! 

Pringles Mingles are a puffed corn snack, versus a potato, and it's seasoned with two different flavors! 

The colors are throwing me off a little bit. 

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dessert Taco Shells taste test

It's Taco Tuesday! A very exciting day! But what's this? Never did I ever think that I might be combining one of our many Cinnamon Toast Crunch taste tests along with Taco Tuesday. But, as I was wandering around Walmart, I noticed these next to the regular taco shells. 

Cinnamon Toast Crunch Dessert Taco Shells! I mean, obviously we've got to give them a try. 

The box says that they've partnered with Old El Paso, who already make really good taco shells. These shells are blasted with Cinnadust to give them a Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavor. Let's try them! 

Lays Canadian Salt and Pepper Chips Taste Test Comparison

During our visit to Canada, I picked up a lot of different treats to try. One of those was these Lay's Sea Salt and Pepper chips. Now, I've seen Salt and Pepper chips before, but only in the Kettle Cooked style. How different will these regular Lay's be? Let's find out? 

And to compare them, of course I grabbed a bag of the Kettle Cooked Salt and Pepper chips. Actually make that Sea Salt and Cracked Black Pepper flavored chips. 

Dot's Pretzel Taste Test Addendum

Earlier this year, I had a big Dot's Pretzel taste test with every pretzel that Dot's made! Original, Southwest, Honey Mustard, and Cinnamon Sugar! So, of course, imagine my surprise when shortly after having that taste test, Dot's announced a brand new flavor! Parmesan Garlic! Oh yeah, we have to try that one too!

So, I picked up a bag and held onto it until I could get the original crew back together! Will this be a new favorite? 

Dot's Homestyle Pretzels. Parmesan Garlic Seasoned Pretzel Twists. Rich 'n Savory. 

I like the green bag. It goes well with the rest of the line-up's Blue, Red, Yellow, and Purple. 

2024 Neighborhood Trick or Treating

After handing out candy to Disney cast members all morning and afternoon, it was time to do some trick-or-treating of our own! 

Our RV park already did a Trunk or Treat a few days before, so we weren't expecting much to go on there. Instead, our friends Nicole and Alfredo invited us to come visit their neighborhood for trick or treating on Halloween night!

The kids would have worn their big Pikachu costumes tonight but someone (oops) forgot they weren't in the bed of the truck anymore and by the time we arrived at our friends' house it was too late. Good thing the clothes they were wearing still count for costumes! Ian is Pikachu, while Alli has her Nightmare Before Christmas Sally dress on.
