They seem the same in quality to me, but I always get the peanut butter ones (both peanut butter ones, the Tagalongs -- peanut butter patties -- and the other ones, I forget what they're called but the sandwich ones). I know only one company does the lemon cookies, though, for instance.

Peanut butter: cinnamon-raisin, and sun-dried tomato! I'm opening one and saving one and haven't decided which.

Also, they do samples of everything at PB Loco, so if you go and the kids haven't exhausted you, pop in. Apparently it's a very friendly place.

Right! (OMG that cookie looks so good right now.)

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

(I know! Now I'm hungry and craving them. Where are my cookies, Troop Leader who works in my office!?)

You know, I'm never really aware of how much I love peanut butter until it comes up and I realize that any time my option is "peanut butter" or "not peanut butter," I go with peanut butter.

Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:52 (seventeen years ago) link

I think the cookies arrive in March. That seems a long time from now...

I will eat peanut butter on a spoon, plain. Oooh, maybe I should make peanut butter cookies. Or chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips. Hmmmm. I'm STARVING now.

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:53 (seventeen years ago) link

I wonder if peanut butter cookies sandwiching a little Fluff would be awesome or not awesome.

Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:54 (seventeen years ago) link

I love the Tagalongs too. I always want to call them "Tagalogs."

Weird admission of eating habits: I like to scrape the PB and chocolate off the Tagalogs with my teeth first. It's a once a year event.

molly mummenschanz (molly d), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:54 (seventeen years ago) link

No, I do that too!

Tep (ktepi), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 17:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Me three.

xpost re: PB Loco - either peanut butter sounds good! It looked like a friendly store and there was even a sample lady at the front, but we'd been at MOA too long already. And A. has this flu that is hanging on and he wasn't feeling well. Next time though!

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 18:10 (seventeen years ago) link

Hi, TITTWISers. It's fun playing catch-up.

For the record, I'll be spending my Valentine's evening making (and eating) Asparagus Jack Quesadillas and cupcakes and watching Lost (with Nick - 108 days to go!).

Calico (calico), Wednesday, 14 February 2007 18:44 (seventeen years ago) link

well my valentines was nice, i got home and snowblowed while wife was on a conference call. when she was done, teh sexing commenced. after the 3 minutes of sexing we opened cards and i gave her flowers. then i cooked tagliatelle with a mushroom ragu' and we watched Eddie Murphy Delirious.

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 12:04 (seventeen years ago) link

no sexing for me as I fell asleep watching AI and went to bed early. But when I pulled back my covers I found a new pair of vans and a new hoodie, hurrah!

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 12:37 (seventeen years ago) link

vans must have been the universal valetines present this year! i got a pair too!

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 13:03 (seventeen years ago) link

hooray! what kind are yours?

I love vans and want a whole wardrobe in different colors. The other day I was lamenting not having any in solid, neutral colors for "business" wear. (since I'm crazy web developer I'm given lots of leeway in attire but feel funny going to meetings full of directors in my hot pink skull head vans.)

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:20 (seventeen years ago) link

just plain old school slip ons.

im really missing spring and summer now that i have a yard to enjoy. i can't wait to sit on the screen porch or in the hammock with a cooler full of icey suds.

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:21 (seventeen years ago) link

..and get your grilling going, huh?

I miss sweating. Weird, huh? I mean, I sweat at the gym sometimes, but I need to get my tank top and flimsy skirt sweat going (accompanied by an Icee of course).

Those sound like awesome presents. Nick and I decided not to do presents for V day this year since we're shelling out the big bucks for our wedding rings this weekend, but damn were those german chocolate cupcakes ever delicious.

Calico (calico), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I've been grilling all winter too...i just miss the outdoors. i used to despise summer when we lived in our condo. now i miss it terribly.

ah the wedding rings. its nice that mine cost $400 and hers cost $2800.

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:37 (seventeen years ago) link

xpost old school slip-ons are the best! right now I have brown with pink embrodiered dots, hot pink with skull helixes, and plain black. all canvas. Wah, only 3 pair! I want more!!

other weather has been bizarre. bitterly freezing in the morning, 60s and springlike in the afternoon. bah.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:38 (seventeen years ago) link

i would kill for 60 in the afternoon, its been in the teens for two weeks here.

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:44 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, couldn't deal with that. But wait a few months and I'll be bitching about 30 consecutive days above 90. I should really move to Hawaii or something.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I want to move to Bermuda. Our Bermuda cab driver had us convinced to move there last May. This wanker that used to live above my best friend in college lives in the Bahamas now..he was a prepster lacrosse trustafarian who we hated. He used to come down to T's room and tell him to turn his bass down. We would tell him to fuck off.

thebingo (thebingo), Thursday, 15 February 2007 14:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Ms Misery, that mooninite plush toy is awesome. Great job.

After two days in hospital I took a turn for the nurse. (Fluffy Bear Hearts Rain, Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:20 (seventeen years ago) link

thank you! It's going in his cube.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:22 (seventeen years ago) link

We would tell him to fuck off.

Unfortunately, it seems he fucked off to the Bahamas.

Michael White (Miguelito), Thursday, 15 February 2007 15:32 (seventeen years ago) link

I want to move to Hawaii; no one I know is willing to go, though.

Sam, your robot guy turned out really cute! The termite damage... scary.

A. gave me some books and some chocolates (no vans) for Valentine's Day. Very good stuff!

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 16:02 (seventeen years ago) link

This year, I'm just glad the whole vd thing is OVER.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Hey!

Tep (ktepi), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Chocolate half off now, like I was saying yesterday. Go nuts.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:22 (seventeen years ago) link

What? I went home to an empty house, got five phone calls from various drunken revelers which included three marriage proposals and one pregnancy, there was nothing on tv, and I went to bed with my dogs. Woo.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:25 (seventeen years ago) link

(THat sounds bitter, doesn't it? It's not meant to, I'm just tired.)

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Wait, these marriage proposals were announcements to you, not requests, right?

Ned, I'm thinking seriously of going to the store to buy more chocolate. We wouldn't want our supply to flag before Easter...

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Mmhmm, announcements. It's good, though - all three of them were surprises (to the chicks - I knew two of them were happening, and in one case, helped pick out the ring) and everyone is blissfully happy.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:37 (seventeen years ago) link

Damn! So some people had a good V day!?

Michael White (Miguelito), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:38 (seventeen years ago) link

(xpost to luna) Well it was nice that they thought to call you; it sounds like you had a calm evening. (It wouldn't have been so calm if three people were proposing to you; that would be awkward).

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

so much proposing! I think proposing on v-day would just be too much.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Most everybody I know, really!

I didn't mean to imply mine was bad at all, I just had a little too much to drink myself and got a little 'gosh I wish my Valentine wasn't so far away...'

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Two of the girls were also born on VD, so I think it was kinda 'what the hell, we'll go for broke.'

Three bridesmaid's dresses people. Three.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

make them all choose the same color.

Ms Misery (MsMisery), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:44 (seventeen years ago) link

That would be so, so good.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:46 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm with you Sam; Valentine's Day proposals would be too much. (A. asked me to marry him in a dorm room and I had a paper due the next day. That also might not have been ideal.)

Long distance relationships are difficult, I think; good for you for keeping one up, luna.

There's a woman at my son's school who is pregnant with her fourth baby; she's excited because this one *wasn't* conceived on Valentine's Day. (Mommies tell each other weird stuff, don't they. I don't even know this woman's name!)

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:46 (seventeen years ago) link

luna, you have to... er I mean get to be in all three weddings? Wow!

Can you talk them into black bridesmaids dresses? (My bridesmaids wore black!) My sister made me wear a sage green dress with spaghetti straps and an empire waist. I looked like the Statue of Liberty.

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Yep. Two as maid of honors and one as bridesmaid.

One already decided she wants black (she's had her entire wedding planned for the last 5 years), and the other two I'm not sure of yet, but Jill's favorite color is hot pink, so I'm not holding my breath.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Black for a wedding?

Michael White (Miguelito), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Of course.

luna (luna), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Okay hot pink... good luck with that.

Also having a wedding planned for 5 years?! That is some obsessive organization. Maybe I just think that because I hated wedding planning and mostly let my mother take over (which was annoying in a lot of ways, but it kept her happy).

Black for a wedding is great! Very elegant. The bridesmaids at my wedding had black velvet dresses and carried red roses.

Sara Robinson-Coolidge (Sara R-C), Thursday, 15 February 2007 17:52 (seventeen years ago) link

ew. I love pink but hot pink. . .on formal dresses. . .

I've never been a bridesmaid. :(
