Trader Joe's

Yes, my unhealthy obsession with Trader Joe's has led me to experience all of the goodies they have to offer and my do they offer A LOT.

Here are a list of some of my favorite Trader Joe's products:


Pumpkin Spice EVERYTHING

Trader Joes rolls out some AMAZING pumpkin products for the fall!!

1. Joe's Pumpkin O's

This is my go to breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack. I have no shame. The best part? They're GLUTEN FREE which means yours truly can enjoy a box anytime.

2. Gluten Free Pumpkin Pancake Mix

Another Gluten Free favorite, I made these for my friend and he had no idea they were gluten free. That's all.

3. Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Salted Caramels

OH BABY!! I bought these today and I am so glad I did, these are AMAZING. They're nutty and sweet and then there's the salt that just finishes it all off. I have yet to try the Apple Cider Caramels but I definitely will soon.


4. Pumpkin Butter

This is probably one of the original product I've purchased from the pumpkin range at Trader Joe's. If you've ever had apple butter, this is the same thing but better. I'm not sure how they make it but they do a damn good job.


Sauce Favorite

1. Corn Salsa

If I'm honest, I don't know where I would be without this stuff. I put it on avocado toast, in omelets, on chicken, with chips and sometimes I eat it right out of the jar. I don't need any other sauces, ever.


SNACKS

1. Kettle Corn

This stuff is ADDICTING. If you aren't careful, you WILL eat the whole bag but thankfully they make little snack versions (meant for lunch boxes but shhhh) so you can "eat the whole bag" and not feel as bad.

2. Trader Joe's Contemplates Inner Peas

These are baked snap peas that are salted just the right amount and UGH are they so good. And they're healthy because they're peas.....right?


3. Coconut Granola

Okay, I guess this isn't really a "snack" but I eat it like it's one. If you like coconut, you will like this.


Dinner stuff

1. Riced Cauliflower Stir Fry

This saves me SO MUCH TIME when making dinner. All you do is toss that stuff in a pan with some chicken or even tofu and BAM you have dinner.

2. Dr. Praeger's Veggie Burgers

Yes, I know these aren't Trader Joe's brand but I live on these as well. Vegetarian or just looking for a quick meal, these are great

.

3. All Natural Ground Chicken

I make taco a whole lot, mostly because corn tortillas are gluten free and taco salad is also easy. I'm not a huge red-meat eater so I use ground chicken instead!

SWEETS

1. Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

Need I say more?

2. Dark Chocolate Covered Espresso Beans

It's like mocha in a bite.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
