The frozen chocolate croissants. The mini plain ones are good too. And oh how I miss the walnut gorgonzola ravioli they used to have.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
See, a lot of what I get at Trader Joe's is frozen, so recommendations for those aren't going to be much help to Dana and DH.
I made the weekly Trader Joe's run today, actually, and here's what I got:
sushi
mango berry muffins
english muffins
string cheese
"Pub cheese" (spreadable cheddar in a tub, like kaukauna cheese)
strawberries
blueberries
spinach
pistachios
frosted mini-wheats
chocolate-filled cereal
1/2 & 1/2
Joe-Joe's cookies
frozen vegetarian corn dogs
frozen veggie burgers
baked cheese crunchies
So, a lot of it is stuff I could have gotten at any grocery store (berries, spinach, 1/2 & 1/2, nuts), but I buy it at TJs because the prices are generally better, the quality of the food is generally better, and I'm already there so I might as well grab the blueberries while they're in front of me.
All that said, there is some damn fine TJ-specific stuff to be had.

So I'm freaking out about $$, and I think I'm about to be hit up for more by a friend. Of course.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is how I feel about them. And, mind you, I won't move because I am across the street from Trader Joe's. It's just great food at great prices.

Or maybe not. I dunno.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I am eating TJs taquitos right now, AIFG!

My dinner: TJs sushi (lobster roll -- new!), followed by blueberries from TJs, and baked cheese crunchies (my new downfall) from TJs.
Watch me as I whore for TJs.
