We stopped in Trader Joe's and did a little shopping.
I bought a few things I don't normally get...a few
nice treats. This Italian Blood Orange Soda looks like
it will taste yummy with my blue corn tortilla chips
and pineapple salsa. :) I bought some flavored teas
for The Mister, too, along with his favorite dark
chocolate covered caramels.
And I got my usual ahi tuna steaks.
Someone recently recommended I check out
Jungle Jim's in Cincinnati. I hear it's like a huge
Trader Joes...actually, it's a 6 acre grocery store!
Sounds like an all-day adventure!
I wonder if Joe and Jim are related!
That sounds like a fun adventure! I have yet to go to either place. I have a hard time seeing Dayton as a place to go to on my day off. Someday I would like to check it out...
ReplyDeleteIt is always fun to by some new food item and I often try to avoid to go grocery shopping when I am hungry. I end up buying half the store.;)
ReplyDeleteI like the design of the label on the soda bottle.;))
I know this is sad but I have never been to a Trader Joe's. I wanted to. It sounds like they have some great selections.
ReplyDeleteA 6-acre grocery store... it's the Ikea of food! I love Trader Joe's, alas there is not one anywhere near where we live.
ReplyDeleteI discovered Italian soda at our local Safeway .... I love it!!!!! We also have a fairly new Trader Joe's in our little city ... I will look for their soda on my next visit. I must purchase my $2 buck Chuck ($3 bucks now) wine as well.
ReplyDeleteLove this soda! And the dark chocolate caramels as well. I use the dark chocolate covered raisins in my trail mix. If you have a Costco near by, try the chocolate covered macadamia nut caramels, oh sooo good!
ReplyDeleteI wish we had Joe or Jim in Arkansas,,,,sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteI get italian soda at target.
I adore BOTH Joe's and Jim's! I frequent Joes much more often but we do drive to Jungle Jim's and shop here and there! The kids love to go to Jungle Jim's as it is a bit of a field trip and it is fun to try the foods from all kinds of countries!
ReplyDeleteWill have to try that soda...I love their pomegranate soda.
Sounds like my idea of heaven! Point me to the cheese aisle.
ReplyDeleteCheers
I don't think you'll be disappointed with your new drink, it's sublime! The Promegranate one is delicious too, enjoy! Hope you have a great holiday weekend!
ReplyDeleteOur Trader Joe's is small. I've only been once and wasn't impressed. Are they all small? I had to laught at MG...the Ikea of of food.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had an orange soda in decades! I used to adore orange Crush when I was a teenager.
ReplyDeleteWe used to go to Jungle Jim's when I was a kid! I loved it. It seemed so exotic to me with all of the different fruits.
ReplyDeleteOk this post is making me pea green with envy! I used to LOVE Trader Joe's when I lived in the States! I was quite obsessed with the spicy burritos! Pineapple Salsa sounds especially divine!
ReplyDeleteSo, did it taste as good as it looked.
ReplyDeleteVery inviting and lovely front door entrance, btw. Love it.
I miss living next to Trader Joes. A 6 acre Trader Joes-like store sounds heavenly.
ReplyDeleteJammie ~ yes, it was delish!
ReplyDeleteNatalie ~ come on up and we'll explore it together! Sounds like we could get lost in there!
