I really want to make Pandan-flavoured milk but I don't know where to find it... Any ideas?
PS: Pandan smells like a rustic wonderful variant of natural vanilla. Vanilla essence just doesn't reach the subtlety that is Pandan.

Wegmans on Prospect Avenue?Category: grocery
Really? Is there a Wegmans on Prospect Avenue as Google Maps seems to think?
Why have I never seen it? This is the parking lot at the back of the Tops Building. Maybe Weggies has a storage unit there? Does anyone know?

these were fabulous to watch and listen to. My ears love classical music and as much as I don't care to watch people dance, the period pieces of dress and dance style was way too much fun to not love. Great find!

Hook, Line and Sinker.Category: eating in
Went shopping with a friend recently (you know who you are and I know you are reading, heheh) and somehow this ended up in both of our groceries...
All I can say is. OH. MY. This thing is DELICIOUS! Gulped it down in two days flat. Needless to say, I won't be buying it any more because if I did I won't fit through my flat door in approximately a week or maybe less, who knows...

Soy milk + Cinnamony oatmealish stuff* = Heaven
I drink close to 2 gallons of milk every week to get the requisite amount of calcium, protein and fat-soluble vitamins in my diet. I am not lactose-intolerant or overly convinced about the apparent ill-effects of milk - so however much I like this soymilk, getting hooked to a non-dairy product like this is a bit of a concern.
This particular brand of soymilk is equivalent to 3% milk. However, the calcium in it is supplemented calcium carbonate - not the best bioavailable form of calcium. The protein in it is a complete protein but I am not sure how it stacks up in comparison to the animal-sourced protein from milk - I am guessing not very well.

- I think some Kashi stuff meets the criteria. Pity, I hate the sugar in cereal enough to avoid all cereal. But really, if you eat cinnamony cereal, you need to try the combo. I think they would go smashingly well together!

I've been making soy chais. F Spot and their $5 pricetag! I really don't think I'd ever pour this stuff over cereal, however. I'm not so much of a non-dairy nut that I can't enjoy a little lowfat milk.

But it already has sugar - organic cane sugar and vanilla... Maybe you haven't tried this brand? I can almost swear they put some addictive drug in it because it made me walk all the way to the grocery store directly from work in the horrible muddly slush - before I could shake its influence off and double back home.
If you saw someone bundled up in a snowcoat swearing at all the puddles running about in circles around Delaware and Elmwood today evening, it was me. And trying to avoid buying another box of the above was the primary reason for the craziness.

I WANT to like soymilk, but the only way I've been able to enjoy it is with thoroughly unhealthy amounts of sugar added to it.

Pandan milk actually tastes like vanilla flavoured soymilk. Since I decided that my unhealthy obsession with soymilk (e:tinypliny,50430) needs to be killed mercilessly, I want to make skim milk taste as fabulous, if not better and Pandan is the only way to go...
I have never seen fresh pandan leaves anywhere. I bought some canned pandan juice stuff once to flavor a cake that didn't turn out :::link::: I have never specifically looked for the leaves but I would check a chau or the cambodian market on niagara st, that was where I found the canned stuff. They have lots of different fresh and frozen green things at a chau. Best thing to do if you are looking for something specific is to find the vietnamese name for it and ask them. :::link::: Good luck I wonder what pandan milk tastes like
