Trader Joe's = A Bad Idea

in Maine Nesties

I came home on Sunday with:

Sea Salt Brownie Petites
Sea Salt and Turbinado Sugar Dark Chocolate Covered Almonds
Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwich Mouthfuls

Bad, Bad Idea.

    Haha!  I was just eating some TJ's white bean and basil hummus, and thinking what a good idea that trip was - I just about licked the bowl when the carrots were gone :)  I didn't get any sweets though...I couldn't get through the swarm of moms and kids at the candy aisle.

    Oh I'm totally going there this week. I keep forgetting there's one in Portland, now, I've never been to one.

    And that is what I SHOULD have gotten!

    We had a friend bring those Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream things over the night of the Oscars...yum...but those Sea Salt Brownies sound AMAZING.

    I always hit TJs right after school in the middle of the week to avoid the rush. The last time I did it that way I parked right away and only have one person in line to wait behind. I drive 30 minutes (or more) to get there, so my bill is always huge. Ok, so maybe that's because I buy a case of wine/champagne just about every trip...

    Ooh I want the brownies and champagne!!! Stick out tongue

    There's a TJ here over on the mainland that I'm thinking about hitting up in the next few weeks, and I'm going to do my best to be responsible, but with all of those amazing sounding treats, it's going to be hard! Just need to make sure I don't bring DH, because he has ZERO will-power, and is a jerk that can eat whatever he wants.

    I got a bunch of yummy treats that are healthy too, so it can be done! I love their dried mango, mango butter, honey wheat pretzels, and roast seaweed snacks.

    I definitely love their healthy treats as well (agreed their dried mango is AWESOME!), but this pregnancy has awakened a long slumbering and very evil sweet-tooth within, so I have to practice reserve! Smile Good thing I'm still craving lots of veggies and the like as well- the roasted seaweed snacks sound awesome, I'll have to keep an eye out for them!
