Thread: The semi-irregular "Cool stuff at Trader Joe's" thread

I should have phrased that question differently

Ok so a Novella is a red with

45.7% Petite Syrah, 33.1% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Sangiovese, and 5.2% Petite Verdot.

My wife likes Cab and Sangiovese. I don't think she has ever had a Petite Verdot, but I know she doesn't like Petite Syrahs.

Should she try this. She likes Zins, Cabs, and Syrahs, just not Petite Syrahs

Think Ill try the Novella this evening. Ive got Joel Gott's the Show on schedule for tomorros annual thursday BBQ.

There's about a 46% chance that your wife will not like this wine.

Which might be just enough to irritate her.

Would love to see TJ's open in Boise, if only to take away business from the Boise Co-op. (same type of stuff TJ's offers, but the prices are twice as much!)

TJs frozen section is awesome..

from time to time, they have these honey/seseame seed hard candies that rock.

I drink jars of their regular red salsa on a daily basis.

The Green Salsa Verde is pretty good as well.

There is a whole fodos there too, isnt there?

I had some customers from Boise about two weeks ago that had the whole "we need one! we buy stuff down here to stock up!" thing going on.

It was cool, because so much of my family is from Twin Falls/Jerome area, that I had plenty to talk to them about.

For those of us that are at least a bit healthy conscious, the frozen $2.79 99% fat free bean and rice burritos are amazing, smother them in our plain yogurt as a substitute for sour cream and the salsa verde. holy crap, heaven.
