Happy Friday! Even though this was another four day week, it has been busy! My favorites are a little different this week. I only have two favorites this week. I have one book favorite because I cannot resist and favorites from a store.
Favorite 1: BOOKS!! I love when I find a book that my kids can’t put down! This week I got the Spy School graphic novel for Luke and he LOVES it!!
Favorite 2: TRADER JOE’S!! I started shopping at our TJ’s occasionally because it’s about 25 minutes away and has the worst parking lot ever! I started shopping there a bit more regularly lately because Luke’s soccer practice is right around the corner from the store. I decided to take some pictures as I was shopping this week to share with you. These are some of our favorites.
These taquitos are my number one favorite thing at TJ’s. They stopped making them for over a year and I was so excited to see them back this week!
I love both of these pastas. They are great to make quickly on a busy night!
Jack specifically requested this butter lettuce for his salad. It is delicious and so easy to throw in a salad or on tacos.
I love all three of these burgers. My family likes all three of them, so I call them favorites! I have heard great things about them in the air fryer and can’t wait to try them in ours.My guys love the mini bagels and the regular sized bagels. Jeff seems to be happy with the gluten free breads from TJ’s, too. This one is great for toast and breakfast sandwiches. He also really likes the gluten free cinnamon raisin bread.
My kids LOVE these corn dogs. They microwave them all the time for a quick and easy lunch.
We’ve tried the vegetable fried rice and the chicken fried rice and I like the veggie one better. I didn’t think the chicken fried rice had enough chicken in it. When I make the vegetable fried rice, I always add a bunch of protein to it.We tried the mozzarella sticks and mac & cheese bites in the air fryer for the super bowl and they are so yummy! They make a good treat!
We do a lot of quesadillas and sheet pan dinners with this pepper blend. It feel s a little ridiculous to buy cut up peppers but it really saves me a bunch of time. I also added about 3/4 of a bag to a dozen eggs for an egg casserole this week and it was delicious!
I love these two dips! I often eat the buffalo chicken dip cold for lunch. The green goddess dip is delicious with chips and pretzels!
These are the star of our mornings lately! They are so easy to heat up and so filling. Jack, Jeff, and I all enjoy them in the mornings. I keep telling myself that I could make these at home, but TJ’s are so good and easy that I haven’t done it.
I go through phases with seltzer waters and I really like these. They are so delicious! Flavorful, but not overpowering.We love these three things from the toiletry section. The microdermabrasion scrub makes my skin so smooth without irritating it. The shave cream is fabulous! Our real favorite here is the body butter. I loved the grapefruit last string and the holiday trio, too.These two spices are my go to spices. I add them to everything! In fact, I love that citrusy garlic so much it was on part of my favorite things gift in November.These are some of the treats that we occasionally pick up at TJ’s. Jeff’s grandmother introduced us to the mini ice cream cones years ago because they are the perfect size for the kids.
I love the plants and flowers, too. I didn’t pick anything up this week because I was hustling to get back to soccer in time. I usually take a look at everything in that section. I also love the greeting cards. They are only 99 cents and so good!
The boys have basketball games this weekend. I am going to Ikea with some friends to have a look around. Other than that, we’ll be preparing for our first five day week in a while! Have a great weekend full of sunshine and books!
So many good TJ finds. I need to buy those peppers! I will look next time. I’ve bought some of those burgers before and Travis got the mahi-mahi ones recently…my only complaint was that it stunk up the house 😂 I hope you have a great weekend
You are making me want to go to TJs right now- ha! Not possible since we are in the middle of a snowstorm but def a top priority for March! Thanks for sharing- adding a couple of those things to my list- Happy Friday!
Ok, I need to make a trip to Trader Joes. Ours is not super close…or convenient to get in and out of either. Do they do this on purpose? But you have so many yummy suggestions, I think it might be time!
All your Trader Joe finds look amazing!! Ours is nearly an hour away and on the busiest street of the city with a tiny little parking lot so I haven’t made the trek in nearly 16 years!

Thank you for all the Trader Joes finds. I love seeing what other people love. We love those mini cones too. Have a great weekend!

Yes to TJ shave cream
It’s the best
Ok – I am going tomorrow morning! Heat your buffalo dip, girl! I cannot eat it cold. I am going to get many of the same things!
I love to see a kid with their face in a book! So great.
Trader Joe’s burgers are good for lunches here!
