The real star of today’s post is the addition of crispy brussels sprouts to The Cheesecake Factory menu. I received an email a few weeks ago that they were adding some new menu items and the mention of crispy Brussels sprouts was all I needed to hear. I couldn’t wait to try them!
The Cheesecake Factory crispy brussels sprouts involve maple syrup, and bacon. I didn’t bother to ask for the brussels sprouts to be cooked without the bacon (although they offered) because it’s easy enough to eat around the pieces. As a meatless eater, I don’t really care if the food is cooked with bacon and if I accidentally eat a small piece, it’s really okay.
Anyway, the crispy brussels sprouts! So super delicious. Perfectly crispy and terrifically flavored. I can’t wait to order them again.
As usual, I had my salad.
And shared Linda’s Fudge cake.
With a full stomach, I did some shopping around the mall before picking up prescription eye drops for my son (who was home with a sudden eye infection of some sort).
I’m in the market for a few new things from Lululemon for fall/winter but totally not in the mood to spend the money just yet.
My Lucky Rainbow sneakers are no longer available but from the same brand, how cute are these?!
I giggled when I saw this front tie shirt on display. Maybe they got the idea from me. 🙂
I also stopped into Henri Bendel and grabbed a luggage tag. I bought the Centennial Striped one but I can’t find the exact link online. They also sell the “bag tag” with passport cover as a set.
I’m on a mission to get everything I may possibly need before the close. I didn’t include the luggage tags in my Bendel Must-Haves Before They Close post from last week but the tag is still a must-have if you need a luggage tag! Everything is 20% off right now too!

Do you like crispy brussels sprouts? Have you tried them yet at The Cheesecake Factory?
Do you need new fall/winter running clothes? Where are you getting them from?

Minus maple syrup, I cooked my brussel sprouts with bacon for dinner last night. So good!
I love good crispy Brussels sprouts, and I have to say the bacon adds a nice salty addition to those otherwise glorious green orbs. Your meal is perfection from top to bottom and bottom to top.
They totally borrowed the tied shirt from you. 😉
I love crispy Brussels sprouts! I need to get a good pair of really warm tights for winter running, but I’m not sure from where. And I need to get running snowshoes!
