These days, a new nail trend seems to sweep the internet every week, each more elaborate than the last. The never-ending cycle can get a little fatiguing, especially when the barrier to entry to participate requires three hours, a couple hundred bucks, and a highly skilled nail artist at the ready. But thankfully, jelly nails, the newest food-inspired nail trend taking over my social media feeds, are shockingly easy to recreate (I’m talking DIY-at-home easy).

There is nowhere I feel freer than the aisles of Trader Joe’s. I walk into those hallowed halls, and, all of a sudden, I have no budget, no plan, and no health goals in mind.

As fun (and chaotic) as this method of grocery shopping is, it often leaves me with nothing but peanut butter cups and mini ice cream cones by the time the weekend comes around.
