Frickin’ Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Stars!
If I could, I’d eat these chocolate-covered shortbread cookies for breakfast, lunch and dinner. They’re THAT good.
I suppose it’s a good thing they’re only available ’round the holidays…
Hello, My Name is Cookie Monster

November 11th, 2009 at 4:50 pmAww those are so cute =D I love TJ’s gingersnaps — last time were were in the US, we bought two containers of them just to bring home. Nom nom nom!

It’s lattice weave or something-or-other, LOL. I like white plates — they show off the color of the food well!
Can I just say, the Novato TJ’s is like heaven on earth?

November 11th, 2009 at 5:44 pmIf I am near a TJs, I will definitely look for those . . . and it’s rumored (again) that your alma mater will be getting a TJs finally. They’re working up a plan to put it into the U Mall along with a Forever 21. Keep your fingers crossed for us, please! 🙂

November 11th, 2009 at 5:52 pmHi Hyzenthlay,
Dude, I lived right down the street from that mall. I remember it SUCKING! Is The Grad still there?
*keeping fingers crossed for you*

November 11th, 2009 at 6:10 pmYUM gotta pick me up some of those on my next trip!
I am in love with their dark chocolate covered Oreo-like cookies!

November 11th, 2009 at 6:53 pmHi Kelly,
OHHH, funny you should mention Oreos. El Hub and I got into a deep discussion about them the other day. I am an Oreo purist! I like the OG kind — no bells and whistles!
Kate says
November 11th, 2009 at 6:23 pmHey, I’m off to TJ’s this minute! I love dark chocolate and anything with candy sprinkles.
Karen says
November 11th, 2009 at 6:52 pmHi Kate,
Nice! Stock up… once those bad boys are one they are GONE. Oh, if you happen to wander into the wine section and get tempted by the $3 Sangiovese, skip it. It tastes like feet.

November 11th, 2009 at 6:36 pmWhen I saw the little Daily Photo thumbnail, it made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. 🙂
Thank you, Karen, for reminding me that the holidays are around the corner and that I will get a break then.

Aww, that makes me so happy.
Hold on tight — the holidays are just around the corner. 🙂

November 11th, 2009 at 8:10 pmHi Karen,
Most definitely the Grad is still there! The Cantina is gone from downtown though. And we just got a Target last month (can you believe it?!?) just off the Mace exit.
Marisol says
November 11th, 2009 at 8:24 pmRemember when there was only ONE TJ’s in Marin? Now there are 3 of them. And they are opening the Whole Foods soon and Paradise Market opened over at Ignacio Blvd. I was in town last night meeting friends for dinner & drinks at Boca’s and saw that they had it open. It’s the same ownership as the Paradise Market in Tiburon.

Sonja says
November 12th, 2009 at 7:51 amOh I don’t know which do I like better the cookies or the beautiful table!!!
Either way, I think I finally, after 2 years, have a new desktop background, if even for the holidays!

Here it Atlanta, a few of us are addicted to the luckily seasonal peppermint Joe O’s (their version of oreos). They are sooo good. Can’t keep them in the house.

Sakura says
November 12th, 2009 at 1:11 pmDifferent gingerbread, same addiction! The soft gingerbread cookies, w/chocolate at TJ’s. I think they are called “Wassla…” something. I ate a whole paquet yesterday!
Steph B says
November 12th, 2009 at 3:31 pmCandy cane Joe Joes are back for the holidays! They are TJ’s oreos with a mint cream with crushed candy canes. Delish!
