    We don’t have Trader Joe’s in my neck of the woods so I’m so curious, is this actually a thing that their cashiers are trained to do? Give commentary on clients’ purchases? I’d hate that so much. I don’t want to know what the cashier’s thinking as a buy a 6-pack of beer, chips, and veggie chik’n nuggets at 9:47pm on a Tuesday.

    (As for perceiving giant piles of clutter as furniture after some time, I’m glad to let you know you’re not alone. I have a pile of scarves and gloves that has become an art piece in my bedroom.)

    • It’s really more of them commenting on individual items that they like or are new. Think, “oh man, have you tried these chick’n nuggets yet? We just got them in a flavor and I’m so addicted.”

      Now… if they commented on entire purchases I would probably have died of embarrassment in the Trader Joe’s line fifteen times over. (Yes, this cheese is all for me and no, I am not throwing a party.)

      Also: your glove-scarf masterpiece brings peace to me and also my one ski glove that permanently lives next to my clothes hamper. Thank you for sharing.
