Whenever we go to California, we make a stop at Trader Joe’s. They have the best peanut butter cups since someone got peanut butter in someone’s chocolate. They have lots of delicious chocolatey snacks and cookies and chips and sandwiches and all kinds of other good stuff.
Sadly, they don’t have TJ’s here in Colorado. Liquor laws here are all old-fashinoned and puritanical and stuff, so they wouldn’t be able to sell their biggest money-maker if they opened a store here.
Much as I love TJ’s, I don’t think I love it as much as this guy:

Uh, okay. That’s…vaguely interesting.
Just a high-profile blog blogging about TJ’s the day before you did. I’m not saying it’s going to rock your faith in Charles Shaw or anything.
