And now for this week's feature:

Joe knows dogs!

 OK, Shrimp Corn Dogs?

Oh yea!  They're awesome and come with a sweet chili dipping sauce. 

I HIGHLY recommend them!

 

And the Turkey Corn Dogs

I've been looking for more substantial after school snacks for the kids.  They seem to come home ravenous these days and an apple or cheese and crackers doesn't cut it.  I saw these at Traders and thought I'd give them a try.  As I was checking out the clerk said, "this is a superior product."  Who says that about corn dogs?  So I knew I made a good choice and sure enough, they are a huge hit!!!

 

What fun things have you tried recently at Trader Joes?

What Does Joe Know? Give Away

So it’s been brought to my attention and my shock, that many of you do not have Trader Joe’s in your area and don’t even know what it is!  This is tragic – you must write you cityman or citywoman and petition!  Trader Joe’s is a wonderland of gourmet culinary delights from around the world.  They are a little grocery store of love where magical items seem to be less expensive and far more delicious than other markets.  Trader Joe’s carries loads of organic produce and foods with no preservatives, artificial flavors or colors, has a crazy wine and cheese selection, and when you go there – everyone is laid back and happy.  Like, I want to hang out there and be friends with these people.  They’re laughing, ringing bells, handing out delicious bites of love in their sample stand and wearing Hawaiian shirts!  What more could you want?

 So, in honor of you poor folks that are void of Trader Joe’s in your life, I want to send you a care package of TJ love!  Sadly I cannot ship their frozen shrimp corndogs or rosemary assiago cheese, but there are plenty of dry goods to make you smile!

 Here’s the deal – if you do not have a Trader Joe’s in your town, leave a comment on this post and on October 22^nd, I will randomly select a winner who will receive a little taste of Trader Joes!  The give away is open from October 8^th – October 21^st.  Leave as many comments as you’d like!  Good luck.

And now for my pick of the week - it's a 2fer

These are light, crispy snacks that scream Fall!

The apple taste is not super sweet like fake apple candy.  Oh no, it tastes like

apple sauce, but crispy!

I'm not going to lie - only 1 out of 3 of my children like them, but I'm sure

all other children will love them!  Like I do.

 

And another little bite of Fall - the Pumpkin Bars.

These are great snacks for kid's lunches or to grab when you're

running out the door.  The pumpkin is jut for Fall, but

during the year they have fig, apple, blueberry and strawberry.
