We shop Trader Joes regularly. The food there is really terrific. Because they change things all the time your cooking skills don't get stale. They were sampling some soup today that they made with their canned diced tomatoes, rice, their organic chicken broth, Italian Sausage and frozen spinach. The recipe in the current Fearless Flyer. I was astounded how delicious it was. Easy weeknight dinner. Here is a link to their website and the Fearless Flyer for Southern California. Recipe on page 3

And Tueday Morning is a gem. I've purchased some household things there for cents on the dollar. I think that the fireplace screen was about 10% of what I saw it for in the fireplace store. It's a nice place for party ware and if you hit it right some giftware. They just had Anchini linens and some Lalique pieces too.
