Ah, what a beautiful few days we’ve had here. Sunny and warm, though certainly fall!
(FYI that pumpkin is massive! can’t wait to carve it and roast up the seeds!)
This week has been pretty mellow, a little yard work but otherwise nothing crazy. Dexter has been getting used to his harness and enjoying going on a few walks around the house, and that’s been fun watching him sniff out the new area… Though walking through the woods with him is slightly awkward, too many branches that he walks under and gets his leash all tangled up.
I prefer him on the deck.
So does Ewok.
Costco was pretty busy today, and I took full advantage of all the samples! Usually I don’t eat all of the samples but today I just grabbed one of everything! (Though I think the guacamole was my favorite.)
There were lots of great sales happening, so I had to try hard not to go too crazy. Especially when the Starbucks Cafe Verona coffee is on sale, that’s a big stock up item.
I’m sorry I didn’t get any pictures of our Thanksgiving dinner, but I have some from the other night.
Baked Potatoes, roasted Squash with maple syrup (YUM!) Chicken and a delicious salad. Also provided leftovers for tonight which is never a bad thing. I love that kind of meal, very much a fall/winter type of dinner, probably my favorite kind of cooking. Rich, warm flavors that you can toss in the oven at the same time on one pan and come back to it 45-50 minutes later and it’s done. Gotta love it! (and it smells so good!)
Speaking of good smelling I grabbed a bag of grapefruits at Costco today, and whenever I buy a bag of them I love to get my face as close as I can to them and take a big sniff… Oh they smell so good! I hope I’m not the only one who does that??? Anyone else? Please tell me I’m not alone in this….
Anyhow, weirdo or not; I love grapefruits and the tasty juice within them. So I got home ripped the bag open and juiced 4 of them (half the bag)
I wound up with just shy of a litre of grapefruit juice, which isn’t too bad! (also probably won’t last long) I know I could probably buy grapefruit juice, but I love fresh juice!
Ok, I think I’ll leave it there folks. Tomorrow is inching closer and closer and the soundtrack to this week’s writing is running out.
Therefore, time to depart.
Good night all. See you next week.

Any guesses on when formula will go on sale ? Looking ba k on your archives it looks like maybe next week, but was just wondering what your opinion was ?
Thank you !
Hello Meagan, I can’t say %100 that it will, but Costco has been known to be very consistent with sales like that. Best bet is to stay tunes to the blog next week to see if it is!
Cheers and thank you for reading!
Thanks a mil for all that you do. Quick question (anyone..) last week I bought the wrong manufacturer of underwear.. can I return them to Costco? Will they take a return in underwear?
Hi Louise, that’s a tough question to answer! Mattress comfort is highly subjective. That said, I bought one from Costco.ca, didn’t like it and they picked it up and gave me a complete refund! If it’s for your spare room, go for it! They’re as good as anywhere else and much better priced imho.
I bought the twin Sealy mattress for my daughter. It’s quite firm and not as plush/pillow-top as the more expensive ones you’d find elsewhere. Since then, we’ve had to buy a mattress topper to add some plush to her mattress. It’s a good mattress but is quite firm. If that’s what you prefer, then it should do fine! The weight of the mattresses is also very light, I can pick it up and move it around with no problems. It’s not as heavy duty as the more expensive ones. If I could do it again, I would have bought the mattress elsewhere with a pillowtop. If you’re looking for a nice pillowtop mattress, the twin one from Costco wouldn’t be the right fit for you. Hope that helps!
We bought one in store for our son and he really likes it. It is really firm which is his favourite kind of mattress. I find the edges a little on the hard side for sitting on the edge of the bed but the sleeping part is actually really comfortable
Nice pics of your yard & kitties & food yummm. Don’t you just love that gorgeous euonymus burning bush? I have one beside my deck too. So what did you do with your chicken breast? I’m always looking for something new.
So I’m sitting here on a dull rainy morning with my coffee and wrapped in a blanket reading your blog 😬. Guess I should do something?! Cheers & big thanks from Waterdown! 🍁🍂
Thank you Jan, I do love that bush and I didn’t know it was going to be so vibrant! I love it!
The chicken is usually pretty simple with that kind of meal, just some neutral oil, salt and pepper, oregano, thyme, dried parsley, chili flakes and that’s it. (I add my homemade hot sauce to it after for a bit more heat though!) In the oven at 400 for about 20-25, checking with a thermometer after 15 though. (164 is good to take out and let rest)
Cheers as always Jan, have a great week!
Thank you very much Jennifer, yes I agree the yard is beautiful (though I need to rake, or leaf blow or something!) As always thank you for reading and enjoying!
Also yes, my favorite chocolate bars don’t stay on the shelf… They are cart bound!
I love sniffing grapefruit! Unfortunately I can’t eat it as it reacts with one of my medications. Major disappointment. 😥 But at least I can still sniff it!
Thanks for shopping for us. I love the pictures of the yard. It is gorgeous and the cats too of course.
Save some coffee for me . Kingston Costco here I come.
Your yard is lovely—so colourful! I have a burning bush too and they are exquisite at this time of year!
Thanks for all your hard work as always!
Now I need to go snack on something. 🤪

Hi Megan
FYI Kirkland formula is on sale this week
Thanks a mil for all that you do. Quick question (anyone..) last week I bought the wrong manufacturer of underwear.. can I return them to Costco? Will they take a return in underwear?
Yep, no prob at all!!
Yup! They will
Yes…. they will, even opened packages if you tried one on!
Thank you for this. I don’t head out to Costco until I receive the secret sales.
And no, you aren’t the only one who sniffs at the grapefruits. 😁
Hahaha, that’s good to know Kathy. I won’t feel as bad now. Cheers and thank you for reading!
Thank you so much 🙂
You’re welcome Dee! Thank you for reading and enjoying (and hopefully saving!)
Are the itunes cards on sale this week in store? they are online but the deal is usually better in store. thanks!
Yup 79.99 in store yesterday
Hello Lisa, I didn’t see them this week but I’ll likely take a spin by on Thursday to see if I missed them… It can happen sometimes!
Thank you a huge bunch
You’re welcome Lorraine, thank you for reading and commenting!
I returned underwear last week. No questions asked
How are the mattresses they sell at Costco? I am looking at buying one for my spare room. Are they comfortable?

Hey Louise, my partner and I (and her parents) love the one we got in July. Nice and firm but still comfortable, not stiff at all.
We bought one in store for our son and he really likes it. It is really firm which is his favourite kind of mattress. I find the edges a little on the hard side for sitting on the edge of the bed but the sleeping part is actually really comfortable

thank you!!
You’re welcome Patricia, thank you very much for reading and enjoying!
HAHAHAHA I love how the picture of the box of chocolate bars is taken in your cart!!!
The colours in your yard are beautiful! One of the few things I like about this time of year 🙂
as always, thanks for your post!

Hahahahaha I died laughing when I saw that too Jennifer.
this is really great, thanks for doing all this!
Now we can sit and make our shopping list, before we go!!
Thank you fairchild! Always good to have a plan in place!
I love sniffing grapefruit! Unfortunately I can’t eat it as it reacts with one of my medications. Major disappointment. 😥 But at least I can still sniff it!
As long as you can still sniff that’s something! I used to love the smell of zesting oranges at a previous job… So fragrant!
Has anyone tried the chicken balls?
I haven’t… I was hoping they would have samples.
Thanks for shopping for us. I love the pictures of the yard. It is gorgeous and the cats too of course.
Save some coffee for me . Kingston Costco here I come.
Better get ready!
Thank you so very much for all you do 🙂
Thank you Layla Bay, thank you as always for reading and commenting!
Has anyone seen the japchae potstickers in Quebec ? They didn’t have any in Terrebonne. They look delicious !
These were from Kingston, ON. Katia.
I know. That’s why I’m asking if they are available in Quebec.
Your yard is lovely—so colourful! I have a burning bush too and they are exquisite at this time of year!
Thanks for all your hard work as always!
Now I need to go snack on something. 🤪
Thank you very much Carla, though right now everything is gray and rainy. Ewok and Dexter are not happy about that!
