You know you have a problem with food when...

You seriously considered coming in late to work to attend the grand opening of Trader Joes. Yes, the thought seriously crossed my mind and stayed there for about 30 minutes. But then reality set in, and I knew I had a bunch of work today and being late to work today just wasn't an option. But, Nashville now has a Trader Joes and I am SUPER excited. For those of you who have one of these stores in your city, do you shop there and if so what are some of your favorites?

I DO shop there, but not nearly as much as i'd like (it's across town near a mall and off of a really busy exit. I hate traffic!).

I love the meals from their frozen food section. BBQ Chicken Teryaki, frozen soups, pierogies (not healthy!), mahi mahi...but my usual staples besides a load of frozen stuff is nuts, dried fruits, trail mix, spring mix greens, roasted garlic salsa, chocolate chips, roasted red pepper and tomato soup.

Really - you can't go wrong with any of it, Sarah!

And now...I just might need to make a run out there tomorrow. Three weeks from now I will totally avoid it until January!

I seriously had the same thought when the first one in Charlotte opened. I'd been spoiled having them in the north east then I moved here and was without for so long!!! I say just try EVERYTHING. Seriously... everything in that store is amazing. My new favorite is the Turkey Meatballs... theyre in the refridge section with other 'micro meals'... they are heavenly. Happy shopping!

We have Whole Foods and Wild Oats... Wild Oats is pretty cool because they have a huge selection of ready-to-eat stuff. I used to go there on my lunch break when I worked at Archiver's because it was next door.

Hey, at least you were considering it over a Trader Joe's... not like, a Wendy's :)

TJ's is amazing! I'd have been tempted to go on opening day as well :)
