Lansing Treats

Whoopie Pies from Sweetie-licious Bakery Cafe.

Today's blog post features some of my favorite Lansing treats. I stopped by Sweetie-licious Bakery Cafe in Dewitt, Michigan. My mission was to drop off a vintage toy refrigerator for the owner Linda, but of course I got distracted by the delicious treats. I ended up with these lovely whoopie pies!

Fresh Michigan peaches.

I also stopped by the Lansing City Market. I picked up these lovely fresh Michigan peaches.

Garlic & herb cheese spread and fresh peaches on crackers.

A visit to the Market  is not complete until you make a stop at Hills Cheese. I found a garlic & herb cheese spread made especially for Hills Cheese. I also picked up some of my favorite dill flavored cheese curds.

The fresh sliced peaches were delicious on top of the garlic & herb cheese spread!
