I just want to say I really appreciate that you time stamp your vlogs. I don’t really ever see anyone else do that but I like how organized it makes it feel and I like reading the little captions.
Holy Moley. You are a vlogmas warrior! This is making me less embarrassed that I still wear masks into stores, because there is some nasty stuff out there. Last time I got sick, before the pandora, it turned into pneumonia. I'm not ready for that again 😬. I wish we had a trader joe's closer to us.
I just had the coco last week, so I think it’s totally a good idea to mask up if you need to because when I looked up the latest strain, it was a lot of US based stuff about it. Thankfully I’m not immune compromised or anything but it was absolutely brutal 😂
Other countries have been masking up in public for years prior to the pannie to prevent the spread of disease. I'm glad folks here in the US are finally getting with the program!
Carrie, you and Drew have the best chemistry. So cute together. Despite you being sick, the vlog was very enjoyable. Feel better. Love how you curl your hair....:)
When i went to the cancer center for my treatment this week,the doctors & nurses told me to wear a mask everywhere because there are 3 wicked viruses/flu going around...i was grateful for the heads up ...glad you're feeling better
You can use the small glass jars for your skincare/haircare products when you are travelling and only need a small amount. I have used one for my hair oil when going to the gym, and one for my babys body lotion when going swimming with her.
When you did the mystery Trader Joe's bags I thought to myself " that would be funny If they got Idaho" since we just moved here. Sure enough, first one was Idaho LOL
The garland over your windows looks spectacular. To keep it fresh and smelling good spritz it with water every day especially if you have the heat on are you going back to blonde? I love it!
Wait Carrie me too! I have literally been so sick for like a week and progressively have gotten worse. My eyes are the same, my nose is runny, and my throat is on fire. Also tested negative for Covid! Really hoping to feel better tomorrow
My cat just passed away on Saturday from a four year battle with kidney failure and I’ve been thinking about you both, Moo, and Layla and when you said Moo didn’t like the cat advent it made me remember buying that for my cat last year and she did not like it either😅 thank you so much for the content and company❤️
I always talk to our Trader Joe’s staff about Carrie influencing me to go there to try out her finds! I NEVER go to Trader Joe’s unless Carrie suggests something. 😂
I had the worst cold I've ever had this fall too. The sinus pressure was awful. Definitely some nasty stuff going around. I hope you are feeling even better by now.
I have been really sick for the past 2 was. My eyes also have been going crazy. The skins round my eyes were so raw and it really hurt. I took Vaseline ( very thin layer) and rubbed it on my eyelids and and around entire eye without it getting on my actual eye and it immediately felt better. Been doing it everyday for about 6 days now. Also, if your nose is raw use Vicks Vapor Rub again thinly and rub it under and all around your nostrils. Helps you breath better and the rawness goes away. My Mama used to always tell me to do that when I was little and it make such a difference. Hope these tips helps anyone going thru it.
My household just had to have our Spectrum serviced too because of terrible connection issues. We traded out our modem and router for the newest and had a tech come out. Come to find out kne of the main issues was the outside cables had been chewed on by critters and water was getting into the lines 😬
Colds seem to be coming more vicious, even here in the UK. I’m just getting over one here. Just look after yourself, and Drew of course 😊. Enjoying your vlogs and can’t do without the intro, love it every year. 💜
Carrie, don't feel guilty about adding sugar to pasta sauce. Not only does it make it taste even better but the sugar helps to calm the acidity of the tomato so you don't have tummy issues later. Heather xo
Lol glad it wasn't just us I got sick similar to that and have still been struggling to get over it. And now my hubby got it but different similar to what Drew had it your new video
Internet issues might be because of the plaster walls in your apartment. They can interfere with wifi signal. You may have to get mesh extenders or something! That's supposed to help.
Also, I hope you're feeling better. I just got knocked on my ass by a virus that lasted like 10 days - negative for COVID and strep. I'm so glad to be feeling better finally!
I was coming here to say this too. I hope the servicing helped, but if it didn't, here's a couple other things that you can try: 1. Keep your router as central in your apartment as possible, and 2. Enter your IP address from the back of your router into your web browser and adjust your reach down (basically in half) so it's not receiving as much interference with the other apartments' signals in your building.
We had this issue with thick walls. And plants near the router. Had to move it to be closer to the areas we used it, got a super pricey one and that worked 😣 had tried wifi extenders etc
Wait is this for real? I have internet issues with my phone in my old home with plaster. I don’t get signal at my house (unless on WiFi then I’m fine).
@@danibaby9020 yes depending on the type of plaster etc etc. You can Google for more info. My house was built in 1900 and has lots of plaster but we really don't have this issue. But I was very concerned before we moved in. So it can be an issue but also not. Just depends.
I hope you’re feeling better! My fiancé and I got hit with that awful bug around Thanksgiving (we were also moving cities and it SUCKED) and we are *still* coughing and just overall feeling exhausted. I have not been that sick in forever!
Hey Carrie! Love your videos! I wanted to say that I think it would be a very cool video if you tried/eat some things that are only available around christmas time! I am brazilian and I was very curious seeing what groceries you bought, it would be very interesting to see "christmas foods" ☺ (but maybe boring for americans, so i dont know...)
ALSO we’re obsessed with all Trader Joe’s snacks- my fiancé and I just went to Trader Joe’s specifically for the jingle jangle AND I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THE GINGERBREAD SANDWICH COOKIES UNTIL I SAW YOU HAVE THEM! They are soooooooo amazing please enjoy! Also we got the mixed pack of Joe Joes and chocolate covered pretzels and they slap
About the jams: I got one last year and I recognize all the ones you've opened so far, so your likelihood of repeats next year is high. :) Glad you're feeling better.
We could never get close to the speed we paid for with spectrum but fortunately fiber through brightspeed came to our area and we switched. If you are using wired connections and still having slow speeds it may be worth looking at other providers!
Feel better, Carrie! I’m also sick right now so I can relate 😅 I had gotten myself some apple juice and was calling it appy juice and couldn’t remember why until seeing this vlog 😂
Tis the season for sickness. I had a stomach flare that lasted 7 days and ended with me going to urgent care (only to be told "You're so brave). You have my sickness sympathies, Carrie
Also, yeah, the little jars would be perfect for art. When Im mixing colors, I do them in jars so I have the back up and can close them so they dont dry out
I live for the Trader Joe’s haul, since my city does not have one! Closest one is Omaha which is 3 and half hours away. I live in Sioux Falls, SD😢. Love the vlogmas 🤩
I had that cold in November for like two weeks and I have a day where I felt like a little bit better and then the next day and feel like shit again but I’m finally over it but it is not a fun one
Am eating the Step Up to the Snack Bar mix while I watch this, a must buy for my household every year. I wish they came in bigger containers though bc my husband could eat the whole container at once 😂 Jingle Jangle is also a holiday staple for us and we have almost finished our tin in like a week this year.
I just got Covid for the first time and thought of you. Haha because you’ve had it a few times :/ but I’m so sorry about your parosmia. I lost my smell and taste for a few days and it was really scary and I’m so glad that it came back for me and is normal, I was learning about parosmia and long term loss of taste and smell and I am soooo thankful I don’t have that, that would be awful and devastating. Oh and covid was awful, it ruined my week including my birthday and birthday weekend, and also I had already preplanned taking 3 days off work and I was sick for all of them :( but at least I’m mostly better and I’m thankful for my health now
kotatsu is the japanese table/heater thing . we did those nano blocks but they were pokemon lol pure torture, mostly because of my nails lol but we bought them at miniso so who knows if they were legit.
Omg it’s Sierra’s Rachel! What a fun crossover!
Sierra and Carrie are also friends! I wonder if they met through each other or not!?
Haha, exactly my thought 😂
Rachel’s vlogs are so fun!! I love seeing the giant girl gang vibe ❤
Omg I was also thinking the same thing LOL!!
I just want to say I really appreciate that you time stamp your vlogs. I don’t really ever see anyone else do that but I like how organized it makes it feel and I like reading the little captions.
Why is Drew saying “I need my appy juice!” Sending me hahahaha we must protect him at all costs
Same 😂
Carrie: “please don’t ever let me do that again”
Also Carrie: does vlogmas for 10 years
Love u girl ❤️
So happy to see more of Drew in your videos, he's so funny I love you both together. Feel so much better!!!
The way Drew looks at you makes my soul happy 😊 ❤
You should do a blind taste test of the jams when you are done and try guessing what they are.
There’s nothing better than shopping and finding exciting new things at the store to try.
I think it’s a hobby for many of us !
Holy Moley. You are a vlogmas warrior! This is making me less embarrassed that I still wear masks into stores, because there is some nasty stuff out there. Last time I got sick, before the pandora, it turned into pneumonia. I'm not ready for that again 😬.

I went to the store today and so many people were in masks. I think it’s a good thing to wear them still!
Other countries have been masking up in public for years prior to the pannie to prevent the spread of disease. I'm glad folks here in the US are finally getting with the program!
Carrie, you and Drew have the best chemistry. So cute together. Despite you being sick, the vlog was very enjoyable. Feel better. Love how you curl your hair....:)
Literally any time I see a TJ haul I’m so excited as someone who’s never been to one 😂 hope you feel better! X
You with that cold was a jumpscare 💀 I gasped 😂 hope you feel better! ❤️
The little jars are perfect for salad dressing if you pack your lunch.
When i went to the cancer center for my treatment this week,the doctors & nurses told me to wear a mask everywhere because there are 3 wicked viruses/flu going around...i was grateful for the heads up ...glad you're feeling better
Drew is a gem I’m so happy for you :)
Hope you recover soon, Carrie. Sending healing vibes.
You can use the small glass jars for your skincare/haircare products when you are travelling and only need a small amount. I have used one for my hair oil when going to the gym, and one for my babys body lotion when going swimming with her.
When you did the mystery Trader Joe's bags I thought to myself " that would be funny If they got Idaho" since we just moved here. Sure enough, first one was Idaho LOL
You could use the jars for homemade lip scrubs, mini candles, charcuterie boards!
I hope you're feeling better! I had a horrible cold this past summer so I understand your pain.
Please tell me why I genuinely waved back to Drew like he can see me 😭
And I smiled genuinely like I would if someone waves at me in real life 😂
Jingle jangle. Oh my. Delicious and addicting. Hope you like it too
If you see the cannoli dip at TJs scoop it up! 10/10 with strawberries, biscoff, gingerbread, all of the above.
dude i’ve been dipping honey teddygrams in it & it’s soooo good
The amount of times Drew wears an Alaska crewneck, or even mentions Alaska makes me so happy. Come visit sometime friends!
The garland over your windows looks spectacular. To keep it fresh and smelling good spritz it with water every day especially if you have the heat on are you going back to blonde? I love it!
My husband grew up calling it “Appy Ju” too! So his dad still says it and now we say it in our house with our kids 😆😆
Damn Carrie. 😢 Hope you feel better❤
I love ur vlogs so much 😭😭🩷 they bring me so much peace
I live for that intro each year!!!
💜💜💜 loved having lunch with you!!
Wait Carrie me too! I have literally been so sick for like a week and progressively have gotten worse. My eyes are the same, my nose is runny, and my throat is on fire. Also tested negative for Covid! Really hoping to feel better tomorrow
Fell better Carrie! The both of you are so cute together. Thank you!
lol Drew’s “a whole forest” comment
You guys are hilarious
Hope you feel better! I got the same crap a few weeks ago and afrin nasal spray saved my life! My sinuses were on fire until I got that.
Also me every single time I’m at Trader Joe’s, “oh, i need my appy juice” It was quite out of control while I worked there 🤭
Please upload more of your grocery shops! Im from Aus and trader Joes intrigues me so much
My cat just passed away on Saturday from a four year battle with kidney failure and I’ve been thinking about you both, Moo, and Layla and when you said Moo didn’t like the cat advent it made me remember buying that for my cat last year and she did not like it either😅 thank you so much for the content and company❤️
Feel your pain. Got sick at 3am with a sore throat on Sat. Feeling a little better today
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
The concern on Drew’s face when you were eating the lollipop “WHAT IS THAT??” 😂😂
hope you recover soon! ❤
Your Trader Joe's looks like 4 times the size of ours! I'm going tomorrow. You really are an influencer. ❤
I always talk to our Trader Joe’s staff about Carrie influencing me to go there to try out her finds! I NEVER go to Trader Joe’s unless Carrie suggests something. 😂
I had the worst cold I've ever had this fall too. The sinus pressure was awful. Definitely some nasty stuff going around. I hope you are feeling even better by now.
can you update us on the TJ's garland? i've heard that it dies quickly and sheds a bunch but its SOOO cute!
What if you put it in that green boxy stuff that florists use?
I have been really sick for the past 2 was. My eyes also have been going crazy. The skins round my eyes were so raw and it really hurt. I took Vaseline ( very thin layer) and rubbed it on my eyelids and and around entire eye without it getting on my actual eye and it immediately felt better. Been doing it everyday for about 6 days now. Also, if your nose is raw use Vicks Vapor Rub again thinly and rub it under and all around your nostrils. Helps you breath better and the rawness goes away. My Mama used to always tell me to do that when I was little and it make such a difference. Hope these tips helps anyone going thru it.
oh no, I sure hope you are feeling a million times better!
The race car and the corn are on point for Indiana
Girl! I had the same thing this past week, cold/flu. I had a fever too though. But terrible sinus pain and my eyes watering. It’s been miserable
Hope you feel better soon! 💕🪴💐🎄
Omg your hair looks flawless!
Omggggg Rachel! Can Sierras channel have you as a special guest for a video please?! 🤩
I am obsessed with her clothes 💕💕😩
Drew is the cutest!!
ok stop- I want the TJ bags!!! Dang it now I have to go!!
My household just had to have our Spectrum serviced too because of terrible connection issues. We traded out our modem and router for the newest and had a tech come out. Come to find out kne of the main issues was the outside cables had been chewed on by critters and water was getting into the lines 😬
I look forward to the intro song every year 😂
Feel better Carrie, I feel so sorry for you, you look so sick but you are still beautiful.
Maybe you could plant seeds in the little jam jars and then repot them when they get bigger 😅
Rachel is good fun!!
Not sure if anyone has said this or not, but the heated Japanese table from Drew's advent calendar is called a Kotatsu.
So sorry you are sick! I’m just getting over Covid now.
Colds seem to be coming more vicious, even here in the UK. I’m just getting over one here. Just look after yourself, and Drew of course 😊. Enjoying your vlogs and can’t do without the intro, love it every year. 💜
Hope you feel better soon!

Feel better! I love your vlogs!
I love how much Drew is in the Vlogs! Merry Christmas guysss!!
We don’t have Trader Joe’s, so I love living vicariously through your taste tests. Hope you are feeling better!
I haven't tried the Jingle Jangle, but it reminds me of Riverdale and then you called it crack lol😂
Internet issues might be because of the plaster walls in your apartment. They can interfere with wifi signal. You may have to get mesh extenders or something! That's supposed to help.

The spicy TJ mix is indeed delicious! I’ve been snacking on it all week!
My cat doesn't like the Trader Joes advent calendar treats either. I wanted that pretzel bread pudding and it was all sold out yesterday
Trying every snack the min home is what TJ's is made for hahahaha
We could never get close to the speed we paid for with spectrum but fortunately fiber through brightspeed came to our area and we switched. If you are using wired connections and still having slow speeds it may be worth looking at other providers!
Warm apple cider with cinnamon sticks can be really good for a sore throat!
Feel better, Carrie! I’m also sick right now so I can relate 😅
I had gotten myself some apple juice and was calling it appy juice and couldn’t remember why until seeing this vlog 😂
I was a little too excited when you pulled out the Indiana bag 😂
I call the see's candy boxes with the assorted chocolates a roulette box, you never know what you will get or if you will like it.
Ah yes my favorite state, Atlanta!
Not me being momentarily confused/irritated at the bags because Atlanta isn’t a state 😂 It’s cute though!
It’s funny you said you add sugar to the TJ marinara
I just had it the other day and HATED it. I thought the sauce was way too sweet.
The sweater in the beginning 😍😍
Hope you’re feeling better now ❤❤❤
I'm behind and i mean this in the kindest way but that cold really had you looking like Spongebob with the suds 😭😭Being sick is the worst
Tis the season for sickness. I had a stomach flare that lasted 7 days and ended with me going to urgent care (only to be told "You're so brave). You have my sickness sympathies, Carrie

WAIT can you, Rachel, and Sierra all do a video together omg
I just went and ordered the Jingle Jangle candy lol. It looks so good. 😍
I love your look/outfit at the start of the vlog!
OMG! Just watched the Squid Game: Challenge finale last night!! It was soooo good, I need to know your thoughts on it!
Oh yea I’m going to Trader Joe’s today after work!! This influenced me fr lol
Is the orange for an orange garland, or did you mean to say orange garnish, or am I totally wrong? 😂♥️😂♥️😂
I just got Covid for the first time and thought of you. Haha because you’ve had it a few times :/ but I’m so sorry about your parosmia.

I'm from the UK - what makes Trader Joes so special? Is it like an American Wholefoods?
