I love Trader Joes. Living in Florida without easy access to a store (the closest is in Atlanta) has made me sad on more than one occasion. To that end I am putting together a wishlist of their offerings for which replacement are hard to find so when those of you in close proximity to a TJ’s begin to feel guilty you will have all you need to ease your conscience :-)
all guilt easing gifts should be directed to:
Giving Trader Joes to Friends Without, Makes Me a Better Person
1003 Arlington Avenue N Suite 1

Much thanks to all who have sent some Trader Joes goodness my way. It’s like hugs for my tummy!
And now the list:
- Go Raw Trail Mix
- Flattened Bananas
- Dried White Peaches
- Creamy Corn and Roasted Red Pepper Soup
- Iced Cranberry Dunkers
- Marinated Bean Salad
- Steamed and Peeled Baby Beets

I’m not a big fan of Charles Shaw wines… I much prefer choosing from the rest of the selection in the store… however if a case of Charles Shaw were to show up on my doorstep I would gladly accept and throw a party to introduce my Florida mates to one of the icons of Trader joe’s goodness!
I was first introduced to TJ’s when I worked in Los Angeles once a month. It didn’t have the cult following then, I just thought it was a neat neighborhood grocery store. I would stop on Supulveda Blvd on the way to LAX and load up; of course that was when you could bring all kinds of stuff on the plane.
I have friends in my cooking group who send me TJ’s care packages now and then. I tricked my husband into going to the grand opening of TJ’s in Roswell, GA a few years ago.
I was going through quite a drought while in Florida… much better now that I’m in NYC with TJ’s a 10 minute walk away.. though the lines can be crazy long at times
How far are you from a TJ’s?
I have been surfing online more than 4 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like
yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be a lot more useful than ever before.
