This morning I worked at the Huntington Learning Center out by Jordan Creek. Afterwards, I did my shopping at Costco, and you can't go to Costco without stopping in the food court afterwards. It's hard to beat $1.50 for a hot dog and pop!

I bought these beautiful strawberries at Costco, and they are just as delicious as they look. The only problem with buying fruit at Costco is you get a lot of it. I hope I can eat them fast enough to use them all.

Stopping at the snack bar after I finish my shopping is a regular ritual when I go to Costco. It used to be the hot dog and pop for $1.50 that was my favorite, but today I tried the Hand Dipped Ice Cream Bar which is also only $1.50. It was a lot of creamy vanilla ice cream enveloped in chocolate and chopped almonds. I'm sorry, but I had to take a few bites before I could take the time to photograph it. It was delicious!

My only outing for today was to drive out to Costco. Most people know that I love Costco. When I go in, I always take a few bags with me. These are special Costco shopping bags, large enough to hold the larger packages that you find at a shopping warehouse. I always take two or three in with me, but it never fails. The clerk always piles all the groceries into one bag. Just because it will fit, doesn't mean I can actually lift it! Why do they do that? First thing I always have to do is repack the bags when I get to the car.

Today's challenge: "Make a photo that you think would work well as computer wallpaper, and try it out for a week!"

My chive plant has beautiful blooms this year. I see baked potatoes and sour cream in my future. Yum!

I worked this morning at Huntington. I've been working there about a month, and I really like it. It's going to be a great summer job. At this time of year, however, with all the stresses surrounding the end of the school year, things are a bit overwelming.

This afternoon Jacci and I met for coffee and then I went out to Costco. I hadn't been there for a while, and I always love shopping there, until I get to the check out that is. You can get in serious trouble in that store if you're not careful.

TV Shopping at Costco

I just love shopping at Costco! It's like a wonderland with it's great expanse of alluring merchandise. I always look forward to going there, even though I must go with a list, because I am always on a tight budget. The very first thing that you see when you walk into Costco, is all these great TVs. Usually I have to walk right on by, even though my television in the living room flat lined a couple months ago. I promised myself then, that when I got my income tax refund, I could buy a new television set.

Now that time has finally arrived. I started shopping this week. Unfortunately, I still have to walk past these big screen TVs, to something that is a little more modest in both size and price. But it will be new, and I'm very excited about that.
