We brake for date shakes!

On Monday we had to make the trek back to Yuma. 
 
We had needed groceries for days and were getting down to the nitty gritty but since we traveled on Christmas day there was no way to stock up. So we headed down to Yuma and figured we may as well do our Los Algodones trip for cigs while we were at it. 
 
The best part about the trip was that on the way down in the morning we stopped at the Imperial Date Gardens - one of the many date businesses between Yuma and Imperial Dam. We can rarely go by a date place without stopping - 
I have mentioned how much we love date shakes haven’t I
 
So for us this day it was breakfast. Dates must be well stocked in nutritional value since we did not end up eating again until we got home around 5 - which is a big deal for Derek and his low blood sugar situation. On our tight budget we also resisted the urge to stock up on the yummy goodies these places tend to have. 
 
However on the way back we stopped at another farm for a bag of Arizona oranges.
