Shopsin’s and Sweets!

Wednesday I met up with Pete (poor Joy couldn’t break away from work!) for lunch at Shopsin’s. I vowed NOT to get the sliders again because I wanted to try something different. Pete got the sliders tho. I ordered a shrimp po’boy and chocolate egg cream. It was quite yummy. The entertainment wasn’t as colorful as my first visit but fun just the same. The people that sat on both sides of us were very nice and friendly. One side was an older woman with his son that has been going to Shopsin’s every Saturday for brunch for I forgot how long. They gave us a few of their favorites items but of course I forgot. I was so excited to be back there again, I forgot to take photos of the food! Arggh!! Since I forgot to take pictures at Shopsin’s, I took photos of everything else I got that day. We stopped over at Roni-Sue’s chocolates (they also have bacon covered chocolate!) and I opted to get BaCorn (caramel popcorn with bacon & chile pinon nuts) and one of their homemade lollipops. I couldn’t convince Pete to go in with me on Bacon buttercrunch.

We also stopped by our favorite cupcake shop, Sugar Sweet Sunshine and I brought home a pistachio and spicy pumpkin to share with Yves.

And a stop off at Economy Candy yielded this:

And in case you think your eyes are playing tricks on you, they are not! Yes! That is Pop Rocks candy in chocolate!! I can’t wait to try it!

And yes, I do have a major sweet tooth but to my credit, that time of the month is here so I think I went extra crazy! 😉
