Hello friends. It's been a while since I've shared some Trader Joe's items. I'd love to share them with you.
We decided to go to Trader Joe's last minute in our area. The drive normally takes about 20 minutes and this time the drive took us over an hour due to traffic, and we left late in the afternoon. I don't know what we were thinking, but since it took us a while to get there, we got dinner first before shopping. We had dinner at Bareburger. The burgers are so good. We both had a large glass of beer. My husband had an elk burger, I had a smash burger, and we shared my fries.
Here are some of the items that I'd love to share with you.
I love the price of the pasta. I think we paid 99 cents for it.
We've been trying to be good and not eat chips, but I couldn't resist the peanut butter-filled pretzels.
One of my passions is looking at the beauty items. I got two bottles of face sunscreen. One is SPF 40, and the other bottle is SPF 15. I am going to try out the Vitamin C Serum and the lip balm for the first time. Have you tried any of these items? I wanted to buy the gel face cream, but they didn't have any. Hopefully, next time they will have it in stock.
I tried this Vitamin C Serum for the first time, and I love how it soaked right into my skin.
Next, I tried for the first time this moisturizing face lotion that is SPF 15. This soaked right into my skin and made it feel soft. This will be perfect to use for the summer months.
I really like TJ's beauty products, and I feel like you don't have to spend a lot of money for beauty items to work well.
This is the first time I am trying out the mint gum and the green tea mints. I thought the mints were OK, but not a fan of them. I liked the chewing gum. Has anyone tried these items?
Of course, we bought other items not shown, such as Joe O's cereal, cream cheese, cold foam creamer, bananas, bread, and more.
Have you been to Trader Joe's lately, and what did you buy?
My blogging buddy, Heather, likes to share items she bought at Trader Joe's. You can see her latest TJ's haul here.

Hello friends, and happy June! I'd love to share with you the books I've read recently.
I loved this book set in Italy at the Amalfi coast. It's about how three people need an escape from their daily lives and form friendships while on vacation. This makes me want to take a trip back to Italy for the summer!
I was looking for a book to read and I saw that this was recommended by the library and a halfway-to-Halloween book. I started reading this, but could not finish it as it was too slow for me. I'm a little disappointed, but if I don't like the book I'm reading or I'm bored, I will not waste my time finishing it.
I enjoyed this fun read, that made me laugh at times. The main character in this book has a funny personality.
Rule #1: All important men have assistants. Rule #2: Men rule the world. Still. Rule #3: There is enough money. There is so much money.
If you have book recommendations, please let me know.
I will share this post at the monthly book link-up party, Share Your Shelf. It's held on the first Thursday of each month. Slices of Life

Hello friends and happy June! 😎
I'm joining Amy from the blog, Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa, for her Currently link-up. It's held on the first Wednesday of each month.
This month, we are sharing what we are enjoying, wearing, watching, listening to, and buying.
ENJOYING: I love using the kale and lettuce from my container garden. The kale is for our protein smoothies, which my husband makes for our breakfast. I made a small salad for lunch using the lettuce I planted.
We love using this cold foam creamer from Trader Joe's in our espresso drink. It flavors the coffee and makes it taste so good.
WEARING: I've been wearing my gym clothes on the days I go workout. I've also been wearing layers such as jeans, a T-shirt, and a cardigan or sweater. We've had some hot days already, and I was able to wear a T-shirt, shorts, and my Birkenstock sandals. If I'm staying home, I wear a sweatshirt and black joggers.
WATCHING: These are just some of the shows we've been watching lately:
- My Friends and Neighbors
- Big Mistakes
- Beef
- Hacks
- The Four Seasons
- Margo's Got Money Problems
- Search Party
LISTENING TO: I don't really listen to any podcasts. If I'm in the gym, I will listen to the instructor's playlist of music.
BUYING: I haven't bought any clothes lately. I might buy a new bathing suit for summer. I might also buy some new summer tops and dresses for summer.
What is currently new with you?
Julie
