The nearest TJ's is an hour and a half from me, so it's a treat.

I will be near one next week, and I heard something about inside out ginger cookies? Can anyone enlighten me?

yahoo article: what not to buy at trader joe's

just saw this on my yahoo homepage and had to share. do you agree with this list of what not to buy? how about the list of what to buy?

i think their produce is ok and i wouldn't put it on the "what not to buy" list.

Purple Potatoes... I am amazed!

mood:

pleased

I purchased a sack of potatoes from Trader Joe's on my last outing and was amazed to see purple potatoes! They added a fun burst of color to my mashed potatoes. I've never tried these potatoes or even seen these potatoes at my regular grocery store.
