So last night I braved the crowds and made it to Trader Joe's for some last-minute foraging. Basically, if it said "peppermint", "holiday", "cozy", or some combination therein, I bought it (this is how I wound up with gingerbread flavored croutons). Since I was literally run over by a shopping cart for this food, you guys are invited to drop in whenever in the next few days to help me eat it and celebrate. I'll even disable the trap on the welcome mat. :)
