A couple of weeks ago, I said, “That’s enough, Duff.” But I’ve changed my mind. I want to know how extensive this baking mix line can go. (Spotted by Jacob at Walmart.)
Do you know what’s awesome to eat during these summer months? Not stew and not chili. (Spotted by Carla at Walmart.)
People dunk their donuts in coffee, but does anyone dunk their cupcakes? (Spotted by Devon at Stop & Shop.)
Cookie Monster would eat a Monster Cookie. (Spotted by Amy at Target.)

Why does a cake mix called “Lemon Sublime” contain a packet of lime gelatin and have a lime slice on top ?
Well, the name could be a pun… Lemon Sub Lime. Sub lime for lemon!
Right, I get the “sublime” play on words…but if it is indeed a lemon cake there’s no mention of it anywhere on the box, thus my confusion
Lemon cake, with lime hints. Lemon, sub lime.
Was totally on board for those Monster cookies until I seen raisins. 🙁 WHY?!
Check the bakery if you have a SuperTarget or in the cafe in a regular Target. Those do not have raisins. They’re really good.
The Monster cookies have been around for years now, both the box in the picture and a mix. And if you have a Super Target, the bakery sells them too, but without raisins (which I prefer).
