Trader Joe's Haul January 2023

It’s a two hour drive to the closest Trader Joe’s, so I don’t get there as often as I’d like. Last weekend we made a quick trip to Florida for my cousin’s wedding and on the way back to Virginia we stopped at a Trader Joe’s in Charlotte for a few things.

I love the felted wool decorations from Trader Joe’s and I was never able to find them at the Winter Park store when we lived in Florida. I was stoked when I saw these Valentine’s garlands and the heart wreath. SO CUTE!

This is an interesting new spice blend, and I am not at all sure what we’ll do with it, but I just needed to try it out.

These were my brother’s picks on this trip. I’ve seen people cook these noodles on Instagram and they look really good.

We like the original naan crackers, so garlic has to be even more delicious right? In true Floridian style we love citrus and Sumo Citrus is my favorite. We also got these heavenly oranges and they went bad really quickly (like 3 days) and weren’t that special. The bitters, rosemary crackers and seedy cheese crackers are all new to us, so I’m excited to try those. And most importantly the milk chocolate covered peanut butter pretzels, one of my very favorite TJ’s items.

We couldn’t forget Lucy, so we got her two new treats to try. The Reef n’ Beef treats smell SO BAD, but she loves them. And how cute are those Chews Me Valentine’s treats?! I love that I can always include Lucy in the fun when I go to Trader Joe’s.

I wish Trader Joe’s was closer, but I am always excited when I get a chance to stop by.
