Trips to Santa Cruz religiously ends with a stop to Marianne's for only one thing, the best candied ginger ice cream shakes ever! This ice cream is loaded with small pieces of candied ginger that get sucked-up through the straw with ease. My boyfriend and I keep our fingers crossed each time that the ice cream barrel is almost empty because at the bottom is like a gold mine (of ginger)! The ratio

These chocolate covered candied ginger pieces are my favorite! It is the right balance between dark chocolate and that spicy kick of ginger. I find these at natural grocers.

I just bought this cute lemon character, Lymon, a Mimobot designed by Friends With You from Mimoco. They also have food characters such as strawberry, eggplant, pea pod, and mushroom. But watch out, there are also non-foodie ones as well since it is a blind box edition. What I like even more, is that each one comes packed with wallpapers and folder icons for your smartphone, laptops and iPads.

Back to Nature is my new favorite brand of cookies! They taste like Kiebler's, but with natural ingredients. I am a fan of their version of the "Thin Mint Girl Scout" cookies.  The only one I am not a fan of so far is the "Nilla Wafer" style. They are packed with vanilla and seem a little gritty. I bought these at Whole Foods and highly recommend them!

When you're traveling on Highway 1, it is worth a quick stop to  Swanton Berry Farm. It is about 10 minutes away from Santa Cruz. We stopped here to sample some of their delicious jams and  strawberry chocolate truffles. Get your baskets ready because their U-Pick strawberry season hopefully opens this month! (Look for the yellow truck with a giant strawberry near the road.)
