onto today’s topic: i love trader joe’s 🍎 

trader joe’s is a girl’s ideal grocery store. there is so much variety to the inventory, but still not too much to the point where i’m panicked by all the options.

it’s all branded too, so the grocery trip seriously feels like its own experience. what i appreciate most is that the products are actually all of high quality — i suspect this has a lot to do with trader joe’s branding their own products. other large grocery chains probably don’t care as much because the blame can be put on the original sellers.

everything is so yummy. i had low expectations for their chai bags, but was impressed by the taste when i brewed a few cups with my friends last night. i can say the same for a lot of different items i bought too. everything i buy at trader joe’s is just better.

i went yesterday after not having visited since the fall and rekindled my obsession .. 😇 i didn’t buy much because i didn’t want to let myself (and my wallet) go completely, but i did treat myself a little:

why go to the dining hall at all? 😋 i forgot how much i like putting together my own snacks or meals. perhaps a trader joe’s run will be more regular now.
