Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s

This #thankyouthursday, I am grateful for Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s.

If you don’t already know what Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s are, imagine if Oreos and Thin Mints made a baby, except, that would just be mint Oreos and these are better, because the cream filling has actual little crunchy pieces of candy cane in it.

There is a lot more I could write about today, but sometimes it’s nice to keep things simple.

Because when I’m focused on savoring one of these seasonal sandwich cookies, I am fully in the present moment. It’s not possible for me to consider my worries or even my joys when all my attention is on what is, literally, right in front of me.

So, yeah. Thank you, Trader Joe’s, for making some truly sensational treats that I get to enjoy once a year.

And whatever the equivalent of Candy Cane Joe-Joe’s is to you, I hope you can savor it, too.

Love > fear,
