This is in a more densely populated and lower property value part of town, and it was like Thunderdome in there. People cutting you off, Instacart shoppers pulling around two carts and blocking flow, shelf stockers blocking entire aisles with inventory. Never again.

Slumming with the peasants is really a drag, huh?

In this case, yeah.

Instacart shoppers are the fucking worst.

still have only been to TJ's like 3 times ever. there is one where i live, but it's a solid 25 minute drive one way. although there's a solid liquor store near it so maybe i should kill 2 birds with one stone. i have no idea what to get there (TJ's)

when we were visiting our friends in Seattle a couple of months ago, they had these. I don't know that I've ever seen them at our TJs, but I'm also hyperfocused on what we typically get - artichoke dip, a few bottles of wine...but these were a nice little snack. I've not been to ours since we've been back to see if they carry them, but now I've got a nice reminder to go this weekend.

gross, dad

hey!

at least we know who will eat the skin at the cannibal party

i don't know why i said that

haha wtf

this certainly took a weird, dark turn . . .

yeah thanks dad

i'm vegan, you ghouls.

anyway, back to Trader Joe's..my lovely wife picked me up 2 bags of the salted macadamia nuts and a few bags of their beef jerky that I love so much..and a bottle of laphroiag

is there a specific wine one should look for at TJ's?

Trader Pierre’s Chablis
