Last week, Adele kicked ~Sad Girl Autumn~ up a notch and released her highly anticipated fourth studio album, 30.
Of course, it's an incredible, heartfelt album that I personally cannot stop listening to. So in celebration of the absolute icon that she is, let's take a look back at 17 of Adele's very best moments:
1. When she was identifying classic British dishes while blindfolded and got understandably excited:

2. When she shared the special thing she always carries with her in her bag — Heinz ketchup packets:
