wait, you mean trader joe's does have healthyISH choices? plus 14 things you probably didn't know about TJs
sharing my ride-or-die trader joe's items focusing mostly on organic. plus some tips to shop and more.
i have been a trader joe’s girlie now for over 10 years. when i had my first job in the city, there was one around the corner. i used to go on my lunch break and get groceries and snacks to keep them at my desk (those dark chocolate PB cups omg). then fast forward to working living in princeton area and going to that location whenever i could. then when we moved back to the city, i’d go to ones all over manhattan. then hoboken and now we live a couple miles away from the millburn one! needless to say - trader joe’s is one of my happy places.
it’s always been one of my go-to spots because i love the variety of what they offer and the prices are honestly really great. it’s a super convenient store to have access to and i know many who also love their prepared frozen meals too.
today’s post is all about the healthyISH staples they have that i love and buy frequently. and 14 tips on how to really maximize your time there and the scoop on grocery shopping at trader joe’s. for example - did you know you can ask the crew member to open any item for you in the store to sample? or that if your kids go on the mascot scavenger hunt, they can get a dye-free lollipop? so many things to be in the know of and that is what this post is all about.

P.S. my holiday gift guide is LIVEEEEE!! xoxo, the girl who is obsessed with buying gifts.
the best ever hair scrunchies!! they don’t leave a crease or ruin your hair like most do. i wear them to work out, around the house etc and i highly recommend them.
these inital braclets are adorable!! i got one for our nanny to go with her holiday gift and the jewel necklace. then i ordered myself the one necklace.
these are the jeans i wore in my halloween mom reel. i got numerous DMs about them! they run true to size/even a little tight for me. i also LIVE in these jeans from the brand in the stoked wash.
non-jeans pants have been on my mind. i ordered these brava pants. they run really snug imo so size up!! then. ordered these ones in black italian wool.
rugs are on my mind for our new home project (major hint hint). i have my eye on this one for the boys and also this one for another one of the boy’s rooms. anyone have feedback on these brands?? LMK if ruggable is worth the hype!
