Welcome to Adulthood

Since I turned 27 a month ago today, I have been thinking of things that I now have to do, that would classify me as a true adult.
Buying my own toiletries (contact lense solution is expensive)
Paying for my doctors appointments
Paying for my car insurance (thankfully I switched to Geico)
Paying for my car tags
Paying rent and other household expenses
Paying for my hair appointments
and so on...
But the real thing I purchased that made me feel like a real true adult was my very own Costco Membership. Yep, that's right, no more waiting for Jojo to be in KC to take me to Costco. I can now go on my own to buy toilet paper, eat samples and check out all of the clothes and books! It's great! Let me know if you ever want to join me. It really is a fun afternoon excursion!

"That's a Costco No No"

This evening SG and I braved the icy roads and made our way to Costco, for our second or third trip this week, but who's counting? (I'm turning into my mother who seems to go to Costco on a daily basis)
The purpose of our trip was to price out snacky foods for a Junior League event that SG has to help plan. We did that, but also had some fun and took some pictures along the way. On our last photo, which was the Baja scooter, similar to a Vespa, a man came up to us and said, "That's a Costco NoNo", so we had to put the camera away.



I would not consider myself a food critic, but I would like to criticize the fruit on the bottom right of this fruit tray. Honeydew, seriously? It's a waste. It taste like watermelon rind and is disgusting. Please leave it out of any fruit salad or tray that is ever brought to me or if anyone is planning on sending me an Edible Arrangement!

Next up, I really wish I could eat peppers because they really are pretty and colorful and it seems like there are lots of different kinds, and all sorts of recipes for them.

Last up, the most exciting item we purchased tonight. That's right, pancake/waffle batter in a spray can! We sampled it from the people in hairnets, and there were only two packages left, so we had to buy one. SG has 2 and I have 1!

HeatDish

I apologize for the second post today, but I had to.

As I may have mentioned, the roomie and I are trying to cut costs, so we have not turned the heat on yet. We are going to try to hold out til Nov. 1. (my fingers and toes are numb as I sit here and type)



The HeatDish has changed my life, and can change yours too. For only $50 at Costco! Thanks Mom!
