Trader Joe's Boozy Macarons have the holidays written all over them. Does anyone else remember the boozy pound cake Trader Joe's (and other places) had in the early 90s? I think it came in multiple flavors -- rum, amaretto, maybe Grand Marnier? So when I saw the macaron fillings included rum, French brandy XO and…
If I was going to put together my Top 5 list for TJ's this year, Trader Joe's Mini Chocolate Mousse Desserts would definitely be on there. Maybe even top three. I think the last time I said "Run, don't walk," it was for the Mini Cream Puffs. But these are even better.
First things…
Until I saw Trader Joe's Sweet Cannoli Dip, I had no idea it was even a thing. But a quick search around the Internet says people have been making this at home for ages. And for me, I think making it "from scratch" would probably be the way to go. Because that way you can…
I rolled through Trader Joe's today on the hunt for those felted wool wreaths (no luck) and instead found Trader Joe's is refreshing its holiday health and beauty offerings for 2022. It's good to see some brand new items as well as returning favorites in new scents. Prices weren't posted yet at my store, but…
2022 TOP ROMANCE PICK -- If you loved Seven Days in June and The Heart Principle, BEFORE I LET GO by Kennedy Ryan is a MUST READ.
It's a second chance romance for grown folks. And honestly, it's everything you could want from a second chance romance, especially one about a divorced couple with…
New for Holiday 2022, Trader Joe's Date Royale is a deglet noor date stuffed with peanut butter and "enrobed" in dark chocolate. At $8 for a box of 10, it's a little spendy. But they come individually wrapped and you could easily put them out in a dish for a little sweet treat at a…
I had a feeling there might be a few more holiday items at Trader Joe's today, but I was not expecting a virtual avalanche. With supply chains still wonky and many products coming from Europe, I just figured there'd be a handful. I was NOT prepared.
Most are returning items, but I did grab…
So are you thinking about holiday advent calendars yet? The Bonne Maman jam calendar is the one no one can seem to stop talking about. But if you're more of a beauty/skin care lover, you might want to check out Trader Joe's 12 Days of Beauty Advent Calendar. Still $19.99, it might be the one…
Get a First Look Inside Jackie Lau's Next Rom-Com: THE STAND-UP GROOMSMAN centers on Vivian and Mel who are set to be part of Lindsay and Ryan's wedding party, the couple from book one, Donut Fall in Love. Despite Vivian being a huge fan of Mel's work on Just Another New York Sitcom, these two…
If you need a little break from pumpkin desserts, grab yourself a box of Trader Joe's Italian Custard Cream Puffs. The most important thing you need to know is THEY NEED TO THAW FOR 90 MINUTES. And at my house, they took the full hour and a half. I checked at an hour and the…
