    I work at Trader Joe’s! I always love seeing videos/hauls of what people like to get & I even tell customers about that one english muffin avocado toast you make with the EBTB seasoning! It’s one of my favorite go to breakfasts hehe
    For the chili onion crunch: you can put it on chicken, add it onto tacos, eggs, grilled or sautéed vegetables, dip it in fries, I’ve heard some drizzled on Mac n cheese tastes really good too!
    Also, if you wanna spice up your artichoke and jalapeño dip, add in a jar of the cowboy caviar salsa from tj’s and eat it with some corn dippers/Fritos :)

    Hi, Tara!! Do you know if you have a carbon monoxide detector? That could've been the alarm, it's usually a super high pitched sound. They can go off when they need to be replaced!

  • @emm8997
    @emm8997 4 роки тому +25

    The alarm could have been some kind of gas detector... im not sure what they are called but if you have sonething like that in your home it could have simply been that. Some alarms like that are made for carbon monoxide which in some forms you can not smell so alarms are a good thing to have.

    Chili onion crunch is good to add a spoon onto ur pastas or plainer gnocchis, on vegis, on potatoes done kinda like fries in the oven, on toast/mixed with lil extra olive oil for dipping bread into its pretty much just a good base flavor of onion and some spice for anything savory or Italian i find that adding a lil salt to wtv u add it to helps bring out the full flavor too

    Hey Tara, just a heads up for those vitamin c shots. When you take anything over 1000 mg at one time you're not going to absorb all of said vitamin and will probably just end peeing it out. So those shots are kind of pointless if you're already meetings your recommended dose of vitamin C

    • @toriaj3572

    I honestly thought you had that epiphany already with setting a schedule for doing work, considering the kind of personality that I see you as... It is definitely a great thing to compartmentalize your work and your relax time... I work as an IT helpdesk person and I could work from home during the quarantine so I made it my mission to not let work bleed into my own hours, and if it did my boss made it clear to keep the clock running.

    you should make a video with tips on how to enjoy being healthy. I know that personally I want to be healthier so badly but can't find the motivation to do so or like super healthy foods or stuff. watching videos like this is such great Inso though and more of this would be so great!!

    Chili onion crunch on everything! Delicious in ramen and on tofu and honestly it’s good with rice.
