I hope my last thought when I die isn't, "Jesus, that was stupid. Why did I do that?"

I could do worse than having mine be, "Wheeeeeeeeee!" For instance I was just making a sandwich and booty dancing to They Might Be Giants. I was multitasking and on a rug, it could have gone badly. But no sharp knives involved and now I am happy and have a sandwich.

That said, watching the BIG storm waves? A bad idea in general. That's not a wheeee moment.

I have to say (confess?) that I mind TJ's prepared foods extremely hit or miss.

I am TJ's bitch but I agree. I love them for ingredients. But I am wary on their prepped stuff. I do LOVE that they demo so much. For every couple things I realize I don't like, I find seven or eight that happily enter my tummy.

But the ones that are good are worth the hunt.

Totally.

Trader Joe's Orange Chicken

That is the best-selling food item. Best overall is Charles Shaw wine. See? I love the demos! It's something to try and sometimes interesting facts too.

I love that stuff, and it makes my gluten-free heart cry bitter tears that it's breaded. I mean, I *can* eat a little of it and be okay, but I *hate* having to assess every possible gluten ingestion. Have I had gluten this week? If so, how much? How recently? And regardless of the answers to any of those questions, how does mah belleh feel right now? Can I risk having some Orange Chicken, or spanakopita?

I'm usually copacetic with the GF stuff, but sometimes it drives me batshit crazy. Sometimes I just want some goddamn Papa John's pizza.

I am big about not going out to watch weather phenomena. This comes from having been in multiple tornadoes. If it's at all cool to see, it's probably not a good idea for you to stand out in it and look at it.

I do like the spanakopita. Very non-greasy, for that. And the chocolate crosissants. But most of the lunch stuff I haven't thought great. They used to make a walnut-gorgonzola tortellini that was awesome, but I haven't seen it in years.

TJ's is my go-to for cheese though, and their crackers are cheap as shit.

And the maple syrup. God damn, that is some good syrup. (And ita, it is from Quebec.)

I have never done the orange chicken, or the spanakopita. I will have to look at both.

(good, Brenda. I worry about you)

They used to make a walnut-gorgonzola tortellini that was awesome, but I haven't seen it in years.

Oh! And an artichoke-heart tortellini that was ALSO awesome!

Still not as good as that damn chocolate-filled cereal. PURE CRACK, I tells ya.

Oh, I miss that too.

I just ate a TJ's Fiberful bar. For mah belleh.

When I first moved to Cali, TJ's had a "women's" cereal that was absolutely delicious but they discontinued it shortly after I got here. I'm really cereal picky, and was very disappointed.

Was it made from real women?

Water can be sucked too, actually. The dynamics of pressure in the pipes are important.

Hey, I told you I was ignoring physics. Weird stuff water does under pressure comes under the power plant lecture.
