I used to work at Trader Joe’s and we were definitely taught to make friendly conversation with the customers while ringing up their groceries. We were also encouraged to comment on the items they are buying. 😆 I really enjoyed my time working there. It was a fun environment.

You have no idea how happy the little hand makes me…and the polished nails bring it to a whole new level. 😃💅

Hey, I‘m German and our vanilla mostly is „Boubon Vanilla“. It“s just the type of vanilla. There‘s definitely no alcohol in it. You can use it just as any other kind of vanilla paste. It just has a slightly stronger flavor!
Greetings from Germany ;)

I found this on
People online often ask if TJ's Bourbon vanilla tastes like whiskey. But no, Bourbon vanilla extract does not have a strong whiskey flavor—there is no bourbon whiskey in Trader Joe's vanilla! “Bourbon” in this case refers to the kind of vanilla, not the alcohol, used to make the extract. Now you inspired me to go to trader joes and for a bonus IDEA lol

[joyfullyminimal]

Good morning! 🎉 Happy Saturday, everyone. WE MADE IT! 😂 I am all for a coffee and Wads video ❤

[klmjtr]

Yay! The baby hand with nail polish! 💅 Funny how something so silly brings such joy! 🤩

[jennifergross]

Just so you know, all vanilla extract and paste is made from either bourbon or vodka. It is used for cooking and baking in such small amou ts and the alcohol will bake or cook off. If you look at the packaging you will see the alcohol content listed. That is why some people buy imitation

[Layniebug]

I am dying over the little hand. I just can’t even stop laughing 😂😂

[radhasircar]

The little hand is back! Yay! Don't know why... but I enjoy watching the haul even more with it...😊. Thanks Kim for being an inspiration. Love from India. 🇮🇳

[donna]

Great video Kim! The tiny hand is back 🤚🏻😂😂. Have a fantastic day today. 🕊️

[PixieLovesItAll]

That Vanilla Bean Paste doesn't actually have Bourbon (the alcohol) in it, the Bourbon Islands is where they grow the specific type of vanilla bean they use for it. It's on the Trader Joe's website if you were curious ☺

The Temp-Tations oblong dish is their version of a bread basket, but perfect all around dish for anything/everything.

[sarahrichards]

This makes me so happy. You are the first American family on you tube, that I have seen using recyclable shopping bags. Most people in Uk used recycle bags. We have to pay around 50p for a plastic bag

[paulaphillips]

I also accidentally bought the bourbon vanilla bean paste from TJ’s, and I love i! I cannot taste any bourbon flavor in my baked goods at all. I encourage you to try it before tossing it out…I really can’t tell the difference. 😊

[rhondabozeman]

Kim every meal you make looks amazing!! I know it has to taste amazing as well. I love when your kids hang out I’m the kitchen while you’re cooking. I bet there’s some great conversations going on. I promise, they will always remember that ❤

[brandeegoodnight]

That is a good cobbler. It’s my quick go to. Just make smaller crumbles on top. I have never scooped it. I agree with alex

[jenniferkennedy]

Growing up in South Carolina, we are well acquainted with the differences between crisps, crumbles, and cobblers. Very different!😄

[carolynrathbone]

Your videos make me so happy. 🥰I look forward to TThS!!!🤗
Your “influencer” stance has never changed.
You live life like I wanna live; you live life like I sometimes live…you are the “woman across the room”, for me! I love how you love your family❣️

[amandadavispomeroy]

I think the main difference between Aldi & TJ’s is cost. Aldi’s is a discount store. They are able to keep the items discounted is by removing the unnecessary frills (cart returns, baggers, music, decor) & keeping it simple. TJ’s goes hard the other way. 😂It’s less than Whole Paycheck but the prices are definitely nowhere near as affordable as Aldi.

I love you shopping haws and food prepping and I'm most excited that you started posting what's for dinner and recipes again❤
