This is my little haul from Trader Joe's yesterday. Pretty much the usual except in exciting news I decided to get frozen mango instead of strawberries for my smoothies! And I also decided to try baby kale for my greens.

I got this reusable bag and a few goodies for one of my coworker's birthday. Everything is vegan except for the cookie baton things which are filled with milk chocolate. She loves fruit leather or fruit roll ups so I got her a bunch of their fruit strips and the strawberry cereal bars and also the accidentally vegan caramel corn. She loved it and really loved the bag. I told her Trader Joe's makes the best reusable bags. Very sturdy and last a very long time. She even said that since it's so bright and nice it will encourage her to bring it and use it!! Less waste for the win!

I  saw these Lightlife white bean and kale slices. I've heard these are excellent.  They were right above the tofu, next to the tofurkey and other veggie meats.

One of my coworkers pointed out the I can't believe it's not Butter! vegan version at our store last night. The really great thing is that the store I work at is not super vegan friendly, but there is obviously a demand. We sell out of a lot of the gardein products we offer regularly. An almost every day people ask for vegan cheese which for some insane reason we don't carry. Anyway the demand is growing for vegan products and that always makes me happy!

I had to go buy a belt for my vacuum cleaner this morning, an when I was walking home I walked by this! Gorgeous tulips growing right next to a big pile of snow! I don't think I've ever seen that before!!

An something else that always makes me very happy. Kanye and Etta snuggling! That sweater Kanye is laying on is now a permanent part of my bed. It's an ugly old sweater I used to wear around the house, and one day I tossed it on the bed and it's been a fan fave ever since. Kanye in particular loves to lay on it!
Wish me luck changing this belt. I've never changed a vacuum belt before! I guess someone has always helped me. I don't know but I'm not really a fix it kind of person. Or maybe I am, we shall see!
