As I said on another thread I started, I got kringles today at my local farmers market for 3.99. Chocolate pecan. Same size as TJ's at 6.99.

My Trader Joe's meets most of my needs. Once a month, I'll go to a larger grocery store or Target for things I can't get at Trader Joe's. But that's not nearly as much fun!!!!! The TJ's workers are the absolute best! And never long lines at the checkout! One bell!!! Two bells!!!!, etc. And best of all, my TJ's is about a half mile away from my house!!!!

Special delivery of a bouncing baby 7 plus pound Brussel Sprouts stalk. The lil darling was quite an armful so my other goodies were pared down.There is a long subway ride home.

No Kringle at the sample station but pumpkin ravioli. I had a sample, seem kinda sweet (could be whatever sauce they served with). I found the dough skin a bit thick and not a lot of pumpkin. For those that purchased the ravioli, your thoughts pls. I also saw Buttersquash ravioli. Which one do you prefer?

Picked up pumpkin yogurt and cookie Speculoos chocolate cups.

Thanks so much for the list Katey!! I got the TJ's newsletter featuring all of the pumpkin extravaganza items but haven't had the time to sit down and read it, your list makes it much easier

I've actually been wanting to make pumpkin raviolis and have been considering making my own (pain in the rearend) or going to a local, expensive, pasta shop, so this makes me really excited. I'll have to take a look for them when I go next week.
