trader joe's cookies, part II



Better than Oreos, HANDS DOWN.  (Also, more fat grams and calories per cookie than Oreos, but we won't go there.)


Have you had the Candy Cane Joe-Joe's?  Better yet, have you had the Candy Cane Joe-Joe's dipped in dark chocolate?  Oh BOY!  I think I gained 2 lbs just thinking about them, but I am also happier.


Come on Trader Joe's, spread your love to Utah!  We'll love you back, I promise!

Trader Joe's does cookies!

My kids love the Chocolatey Cat Cookies (for People) and I love the Triple Ginger Cookies (also for people).


I don't like that I have to ration them.

HEY TJs--I found a place for you in UTAH!

And guess what else, Trader Joe's?  I found you a PERFECT location to put your FIRST Trader Joe's store in UTAH!  And it just might be within walking distance from my house.  And it just came available.  And there is an empty lot across the street you can buy so there will be enough places for all of your loving followers to park.


Location HERE!


Call me!

Reason #9

Oh, Trader Joe's, come to Utah.  You don't realize how much fun we'd have together.  I'd stop by your place every week and pick up some beautiful flowers and bring them to my home or to somebody in need of a bright pick-me-up.  And then we'd all say, "Oh, isn't Trader Joe's divine?"

If there was a Trader Joe's in Utah,
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum.
If Trader Joe's came to Zion.
I wouldn't have to work hard.
Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum.
To find biddy biddy good, pretty, and delicious
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle things.

What are you waiting for, again?

Reason #8

 

Trader Joe's offers all kinds of chocolatey-salty-and-crunchy goodness.  These have to be MY favorite.  I admit, though, not being able to buy very many, otherwise I would eat each and every bag that is in my home.

That's why we need Trader Joe's in Utah NOW!  So we can buy one or two of an item at a time.  

... And then go back next week for more!

Reason #7

Hummus

There are at least 10 versions of hummus.  My favorite is the plain Original Hummus (red and blue packaging--seen on the very far right).  Dip some veggies in or pita chips.  Smother on a pita with homemade falafel balls. 

HUmmmmmmmUS!

The Pineapple salsa is my favorite.  What's yours?

Reason #5

Best birthday gifts, housewarming, party favors, mother's day, father's day, thank you gift... I could go on and on.

TRADER JOE'S Pound Plus Chocolate Bars

Delicious!

Reason #4

Oh, how I miss the Whole Wheat Pizza Dough.  For only $1.29 I could use all of the extra veggies in my fridge and make a healthy, awesome pizza.

Come to Utah, Trader Joe's!  My dinner menu NEEDS you!

Reason #3

Dried fruit, raw nuts, flavored nuts, freeze-dried fruit, trail mixes.


There are my beloved Dried JUST MANGO SLICES for only $2.99.  I love those!!  Have you tried the dried blueberries?  I'm wishing I picked up a bag or two.

Special trip to Trader Joe's

I just got back from AZ and a special trip to Trader Joe's.  I was so giddy it was pretty ridiculous.  It was right before Valentine's Day so there were more flowers than usual.  I picked up a dozen long-stemmed, beautiful roses for only $9.99... the day before Valentine's!!!


I got a lot more pictures so my love letter to Trader Joe's can continue.  Here's hoping someone from TJ HQ hears it!
