for the love of Joe. Trader Joe's.
Life's not fair and why don't we have a Trader Joe's in Utah?
And why did I not stock up on these bad boys while I was in California?!?!
I only got one box. What was I thinking?! If I had known how yummy and non-trans fatty they are (except I already knew about the absence of trans fats), I would have brought back a box for all my friends for Christmas. Sounds like a politician's promise, but it's 72% true.
Another discovery on our trip to California was this little bar of taste and delight.
The Blueberry Z Bar. This bad boy is deserving of a post on its own.
I buy the pack of Z Bars from Costco on a regular basis, but that only comes with 3 flavors. When I saw blueberry I grabbed one for our days at Dis (mistake #1 was to buy only one because I had to share it with Dave and he didn't think it was anything to write home about. Talk about a waste of half a Blueberry Z Bar!).
When I ate it, my mouth was in tarty heaven (tart as in food, not a promiscuous lady). And Dave made fun of me for sounding like a commercial when telling my sister, Carol, about them. But that's how good they are! And mistake #2 was that on our way home I only picked up five. FIVE! How totally ridiculous.
So if anyone reading this lives near a Trader Joe's, (ahem Carol, Kristy and Liz) please note that not only Christmas is approaching but also my birthday (okay, my birthday is two months off, but think of all the blueberry Z Bars you could stock up on in two months to send me!). Can I make your hectic lives easier by telling you that products from TJs (the ones mentioned in particular) would always be welcomed and you could score many points with our family. Well, just me actually.
Oh, and we also love garlic naan. But I don't need to remind you of that.
(I wonder how many more times I can use parentheses in this post.)

trader joe's has a special place in my heart. seriously.
ohh, candy cane cookies look scrumptious. i can bring you back some because you can be sure that my buns will be hitting up joes for some of that.
i love trader joes as well. however you should check out sunflower market, if you havent already. its basically a knock off but you can get some pretty delicious stuff there!
cori, we are kindred spirits for many reasons with this being one.
jana, i can tell you where the one in vegas is where we stop on the way there and on the way home.
karissa, i have tried to give sunflower market a chance but it's not the same. i will try again.
I think I heard something about a Trader Joe's coming here...but the memory's kinda fuzzy, so don't quote me on it. For your sake, I hope it's true. For your sake, Holly. Yours.

yes katrina, for my sake and my sake only.
