One Little Problem

OK, there seems to be a bit of a problem with the name of my website URL.

I named my blog "Favorites Exchange" and that works well except that when Blogger created the URL it became favoritesexchange!

Do you see the problem here??

So the blog is Favorites Exchange, not Favorite Sex Change ... let's keep it clean please!

:-)

Second-guessing

After thinking about this blog a bit more, I remember that you are always encouraged to pick a subject that you are PASSIONATE about. I am embarrassed to be passionate about COSTCO. Can I erase this and start over??? Oh, yeah, there are definitely worse things to be into .... but wow! All I could think about to share with the world was my feelings about grocery shopping? Now that is sad. I always thought I was all about important social events, heavy duty issues, grand insights and wonderful hobbies. I guess everyone now knows that groceries are a major highlight of my life. Hopefully I'll have a chance to explore a few other areas in the near future, and the world will have the chance to know the deep and substantive person that I truly am.

Costco!

Lately, we've become big fans of shopping at Costco. Of course you always end up spending twice as much as you planned and getting twice the amount you need. But great products, the best prices, unique items that pop in and out, and fun taste test opportunities = required once-a-week shopping spree. Grabbing a quick hot dog dinner also makes it nice!

Here's my family's favorites. I tried to limit it to top 5 ... FAIL!

Totally hooked, gotta have ...
  • Ling Ling Potstickers
  • Tortillaland Uncooked Flour Tortillas
  • Kirkland Chinese Style Chicken Salad
  • Joan's Broccoli Salad by Souplantation
  • Kirkland Rotisserie Chicken
  • Santa Barbara Mango Salsa with Peach
  • Stacy's Pita Chips and Sabre Hummus
  • Aidells Teriyaki Chicken Meatballs
  • Julie’s Organic Raspberry Sorbet Bars
  • Pirate's Booty White Cheddar Cheese

And these Kirkland brand products make too much sense/cents not to buy -- even in the large size ... all excellent!
    • Kirkland Signature Eco-Friendly Laundry Detergent
    • Kirkland Daily Facial Cleansing Towelettes
    • Kirkland Signature Whole Grain Bread
    • Kirkland Signature Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar
    • Kirkland Garbage and Kitchen Bags
    • Kirkland Signature Butter


    What's on your Costco shopping list???
    I'd really love to hear what are your favorites!
    Please share right here on the Favorites Exchange ...
