It's the little things....


Today I went to my favorite place to shop, Costco! It's an unnatural obesession, one that Shayne doesnt understand.

I used to be a sample snob, meaning, that I thought people who lingered to try something out were weird. Not any more! Lentil soup, sure! Frank's Red Hot sauce in a dip, let me try that ! I have checked my pride at the door folks!
You really do get great deals on stuff. I won't say everything, because if you are not gonna eat that whole container of grapes (ha!, that would never happen here) its not a good deal. And a lot of time, produce can be found cheaper at Fry's sales.

So, today, I lived it up and found myself putting things in my basket that I normally pass up.
(to the tune of $266...this crap adds up!)

Bacon-we love bacon, but don't eat it that often...but it sure is nice to have on handFresh Mozzarella-this is a major splurge, I love most cheeses, the more expensive, the better
Matrix Hair Balm- because my hair is feeling the winter and needs some moisterizing
Popcorn- if you see these popcorn people at Costco, BUY IT! It is the most fluffy, tasty popcorn ever!
Artichoke Jalapeno Dip- I had never tried this, but I can tell you that as of 5 minutes ago, its yummy
So there you go, I am a simple girl, and a cart full of surface wipes, bar soap, and fancy cheese just makes me happy!

I have to say, I have a love/hate relationship with Costco. I love when I have enough money to throw that "extra" stuff into the cart, but hate it when I don't. Being run over by giant carts & dodging parking-space lurkers isn't any fun without something exciting to show for it!

Artichoke/Jalapeno Dip alone might be worth the drive?

Tate would eat the entire package of bacon if left to his own devices. Ok, maybe not anymore, but when we were first married...

And yep, it is the little things that make me so, so happy.

I love their jalepanio & cilantro hummis (great sandwhich spread)

As for cheese - the Cabot aged white chedder is a favorite (it's in the blue wax)
