I love sweets. l'll pretty much eat anything sweet that's put in front of me and while this wasn't…read morea problem during my younger days, now that I'm on the downward slide to 50, things are changing fast and as much as it pains me to admit, It's time for me to cut out some of the things which simply aren't good for me, like white flour and maybe I need to consider adding some fiber to my diet. When I was young, one of my favorite sweets to eat was my grandmas blueberry muffins. I'd spend weekends with her and grandpa and be awakened nearly every morning to the most intoxicating aroma wafting up the stairs from the kitchen and tickling my little nose. I'd began thinking alot about grandma lately after learning July 11th was National Blueberry Muffin Day (ever notice there seems to be a National Day of something just about everyday) and so I decided to take to the internet and find a healthy bran muffin recipe where I could get my sinful, yet healthy muffin fix. That's when I stumbled upon the benefits of something called Branaflax muffin mix, which appeared to be the Holy Grail of muffin mix for health enthusiast's and stay-at-home moms who as we all know take their nutrition serious. The Branaflax muffin mix recipe was developed by its current CEO, Adrienne Dubarry, who I assumed from her website picture, was a former fashion model turned domestic goddess, like Martha Stewart whose only purpose in life then was to stare back from the pages of Vogue or Harpers and make already insecure women even more so, but who now lives to make them feel like throwing themselves off a bridge because they don't churn their own butter, or has them all convinced they're going to hell for not carving museum worthy Jack-a-lanterns at Halloween. Although Adrienne did seem to posess a more wholesome, non threatening, Donna Reed kind of look, one in which if I were a woman I could maybe be friends with her, and whats more, she didn't look like she'd beat me into unconsciousness (like Martha would) for screwing up one her recipes or worse, kill me for making a mess in her kitchen, no Adrienne was more suited to grace the covers of Good Housekeeping or Womans Day. I decided to give Branaflax a try and ordered some online, the recipes looked rediculously easy and as it said on the website just by adding a few simple ingredients, I could customize my muffins for any taste I wanted, one mix - many possibilities. Now I've never been one of those guys, you know the type who have way too much time on their hands and they'll sit down and write a letter to some conglomerate whose product they tried once and had to tell them about it. But damn if that isn't just what I went and did, prompting Adrienne to call and invite me to come out and bake with her at her test kitchen in La Quinta, California. To say I was flabbergasted would be an understatement, but after talking with her for some time she was serious and since I had an upcoming trip to the desert anyway, I decided to take her up on the offer, find out the secret to her success, what it takes to become a muffin mogul and if she truly is as home-spun as she appears to be in that apron she's wearing on her website.

I usually find the customer service here quite good but today Alma was guarding the self-checkouts…read morelike a security guard. It was just a bit much; a bit aggressive. Walking around behind people, watching like a hawk- almost assuming we were all stealing. She got kinda confrontational with me about the 25 cent bags, because most Self-Checkout machines will prompt you to select how many you grabbed- apparently Sprouts dosn't. She got in my personal space and wasn't nice or helpful about it. Honey, I'm spending hundreds on vitamins, everything was rang up, I'm not trying to steal disposable bags... Another couple joked about her demeanor on the way out too, so I don't think I'm the only one slightly offended by her. It's not that serious, Alma.

First and last time at Sprouts La Quinta…read more We stopped in around 8:20 PM last night 08/16/2026 because we wanted to try the Family Meals we've been seeing advertised. We went to the deli and stood there for about five minutes before realizing we needed to press the service button. An employee came out, so I asked, "Hi, is the deli still open?" He responded with an attitude, "Yes, but I work the meat department," and walked away. I understand he may not have been the person who could help me, but a simple "Let me get someone from the deli" would have been enough. Instead, the interaction left me feeling unwelcome and embarrassed. I spoke with the manager, Steve, who apologized and offered to help, but by then we decided to leave. I really want to believe this was a race thing and I want to believe it was just a bad day for the wannabe butcher or he seriously hates his job, but regardless... that was not ok. What really stood out was what happened next. We went to Ralphs on Jefferson, where the customer service was ON POINT. One of the employees even took the time to interact with my daughter who is autistic, gave her a Pokémon card, and she gave him a high five. That small interaction meant more than he probably realized. We weren't asking for special treatment. Just basic kindness and respect. Learn something, Sprouts.

Luscious Lorraine is truly something special…read more My husband and I are tough critics when it comes to food--especially with my dietary restrictions (gluten-free, dairy-free, nut allergy, and overall health-conscious lifestyle). It's not easy to impress us... but this place absolutely did. We had the breakfast burritos, and they were incredible--fresh, perfect portion, and made with such care. On top of that, we tried four different drinks, including the skinny smoothie, green juice, matcha latte, and golden pineapple sea moss--each one was delicious, clean, and genuinely nourishing. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. The team of young women working there were so kind, welcoming, and attentive--it made us feel right at home. It's rare to find a spot that checks every box--taste, quality, health, and service--but Luscious Lorraine delivers on all of it. We'll absolutely be back.
