#6-hit the slopes

Oct 19, 2020

Hi all! Hope you’ve been staying safe, making your voting plan, and getting ready for all the holidays. Sorry for the delay, having a heck of a time uploading pictures!

Hopefully ski season will still happen and be a nice way to get outside during all the COVID craziness. The warehouse really has the majority of your needs for wintertime outdoor sports! Ski helmets for kids and adults, goggles, snow pants, base layers, snowshoes, gloves, even this fancy dryer for all your gear! Stock up now, the snowshoes in my size were already sold out! Also check out these USB rechargeable heated gloves for the real snow enthusiast in your life, 99.99 and would make a great gift! For apres ski(the only thing I’m good at), how about these hot chocolate drops?

The Great Sparkling Water Debate

As a sparkling water enthusiast, allow me to tell you I have tried literally every sparkling water offered at Costco. If your warehouse offers Topo Chico(the holy grail), lucky you, but I’m here to tell you about a sleeper pick, Kirkland Brand Italian Sparkling Mineral Water. Bubblier than Pellegrino and Perrier, larger size. I don’t love the plastic but hopefully it’s making its way to a recycle bin. ~$12 for 24 bottles. What is your fave Costco sparkling water?

Holiday Happiness

Each week brings new and wonderful holiday decor. I really can’t get enough. You can truly find items to match any aesthetic, whether more neutral or traditional. This week we spotted great garlands and wreaths, both lighted and unlighted. I LOVE the red check printed ornaments!!

I made this recipe up

You know those weird self-help books that tell you that if you just think really hard about your desires you can manifest them into existence? I was standing in the cheese aisle, feeling bored with buying another bag of Mexican blend cheese, when I wished that my store carried quesadilla or Chihuahua cheese. I walked further down the aisle, and there it was! I did it guys. I manifested my cheese dreams into the universe. I had some fresh green onions that I didn’t want to go to waste so I chopped them up, added taco seasoning and mixed it all up and put it in the freezer to have ready quesadilla or enchilada filling. You can also add shredded rotisserie chicken, and pureed chipotle in adobo for some spice. Here is a great guide to Mexican cheeses, many of which can be found in the warehouse!
