  • Trader Joe's put out some great new items this week so my husband and I were thrilled to pick them all up. In this Trader Joe's Taste Test, we tried a Platinum Reserve red blend wine, caramel biscotti, a few interesting beers, caramel ice cream and much more!

    The Vino Dunk - Purists would say the only liquid to dip your biscotti in is wine. As they do in Tuscany, you can dip your biscotti into rich red wines, especially those on the sweeter side. Marsala wine and Vin Santo are the wines of choices for dipping. Most connoisseurs on either side of the pond agree that dipping biscotti into a sweet Italian wine is the perfect end to a hearty Italian meal.
    Just thought you might like this better.

    Has Tim ever considered working for a winery in the tasting department? He seems to be quite knowledgeable on the subject of wine verities
    and other selling points when buying wines.

    Happy anniversary again!! 🥂🥂 I didn't get to finish the video the day prior, but I hope you guys are having a great anniversary weekend.
    I didn't leave a comment on the life update vlog, but hang in there, Tim. I've been there before myself a time or two. The hardest was 2020, I was gainfully unemployed for a whole year, the longest I went without a traditional job and it was HARD. I focused on my home based business to help supplement my income and to stay busy and keep my sanity and stress levels down. While I'm still employed with the same company now for almost 3 years and I'm extremely grateful, I've been looking for more pay with improved benefits and doing that has been difficult. I feel the job market is definitely flooded with like-minded people. The job meant for you will come, and it'll be the biggest weight lifted off your shoulders.
    On to the food.... I've noticed how TJs loves to get on a flavor train and ride it well past the station. 😂😂😂 Sometimes, I'm down for the ride, and other times, I get off a few stops ahead of the exit. I haven't tried any of the new caramel items, but that Dulce de Leche ice cream is on my list. I love a nice Dulce de Leche treat every now and again. By the way, the Dulce part is pronounced "Dole-say" since it's Spanish. And fun fact for those that don't know, Dulce de Leche basically translates to "Sweet milk". 😊
    Have a sweet day!💜

    My favorite place with my girlfriends is Daytona Beach, FL. My favorite place with my husband is any weekend getaway!! On our anniversary in the fall we go away for the weekend somewhere within an hour - 3ish!! We live in the finger lakes area of upstate NY and there are so many beautiful places, nice wineries, breweries to see! And, on a much more replay basis, our couch!!!! Yes!! We lose to snuggle or even just hold hands while watching a good show. ❤❤

    You're right about Catalina Island; it's a fun get-away from SoCal. We used to go there often when I was a teenager. Now i love to go wine tasting in Sonoma County. It's a short plane ride to the Charles Schulz (Peanuts) airport in Santa Rosa from San Diego and LA, and so many wineries. Not as crazy, crowded and expensive as Napa, though that can be a day trip.
    Happy Anniversary!

    Gravelly Park in Washington DC/Arlington VA border. A hidden gem. It is a open public park, right outside of the National Airport (DCA/Ronald Reagan Airport). The planes take off and land from that post and it feels like you can reach up and touch them as they go overhead. You can also watch boats come in and dock. There are ducks, geese, all sorts of beautiful flora and fauna and it is just a wonderful spot.

    The look on both of your faces after trying that first sip of wine - it said it al! Now I've gotta run out and see if my Trader Joe's has it in stock. I've never been disappointed by one of their platinum reserve wines. How great to have that wine on your anniversary! 🍷
    Favoite place to go is the Florida Keys. I haven't been there is forever but it gives me such great nostalgia vibes just thinking about it. My second, more normal choice is my local library, it's totally my happy place.🥰

    Hi Katie and Tim, thank you for the taste test. I love Hawaii too! I am hoping that our trip in a few months to London and Paris will also be some of our favorite places. Also, the beach, it is so relaxing to listen to the waves. Actually California is one of our favorite places.We go almost every summer to get out of the AZ heat!

I get my Thai my man loves to get all kinds of different drinks like you he likes to try new things. We love the shrimp cocktail and their steak tacos but the view is the best and the Sandy eating area is amazing. Great we can get away if you live close enough to go for the weekend that is in California I figure you do if you go to Catalina.

I don't think I have ever tried it. The ice cream well who wouldn't love that! I have never seen that corn before. Question of the week...I love going to the beach and having a nice dinner somewhere on at a restaurant where you are on the water and you can enjoy the ambiance of the restaurant and the scenery. Have a good weekend you two!😊❤
