Essentials

Trader Joes is my favorite grocery store, but it's not a big-chain store. If you're looking for a certain brand of tomato sauce, you'll want to go elsewhere. If you're looking for some of the best produce and frozen/pre-made meals, you're in luck. Find the hidden Anteater stuffed animal, and get a prize.
