you should have just bought it and have the guy come to your house and pick it up, I doubt it'll be there afterwards when he goes.

Buy them and throw them into a fire. They ignite very well due to the fatness.

Costco's nut and seed brittle is pretty tasty. If you do not have an allergy to nuts, I recommend it.

So I'm a bit disappointed with the incompetence of Costco's tire centre, needed to rant a bit.
I decided I needed to pull the trigger on some new tires for the Sonoma. Being a ZR2, it came from the factory with 31x10.5r15LT tires (regular S10/Sonomas would have 235/75r15).
Now I get LT imperial sizes are not nearly as common anymore but they're not exactly rare either. They're still pretty mainstream in the 4x4 world, just that if you want them they're usually a special order.
So I thought I'd check Costco's website to see what they might have, and to my surprise they actually showed they had the Firestone Destination XT in 31x10.5r15 in stock. $250/tire, all-weather rated, good deal! I could have placed the order online, but since I was going to Costco on Monday anyways I figured I would just do it in person. I took a printout of the Costco website page with all the details (Model, Size, Costco Item #).
When I got to the tire centre, I handed the printout to the woman behind the counter and said "I'd like to order these tires for my truck please". She looks at the printout, and says "OK, what's the vehicle?" (Now in my mind I'm thinking "but, the item # is right there, why doesn't she just look that up?", but OK she's doing her dilligence to make sure it's the right fit for the truck, so I'll humour her).
Me: "1997 Sonoma"
Her: "What Model"
Me: "SLS 4x4"
Her: "What Option?"
Me: "Optional Chassis Package" (Costco's code for the ZR2, because fun fact they came with bespoke frames different from the regular S10/Sonomas)
Sure enough it comes up with the 31x10.5r15 tire size.
Her: "That's weird, I've never seen a tire size like that before"
Me: "Really? It's pretty common in the 4x4 world, you know 31's, 33's, 35's, etc"
Her: "Huh, well the search is not coming up with any tires that match that"
She turns to her coworker at the counter and says "Jim, do you know anything about these tire sizes"
Jim: "Yeah, we don't carry imperial tire sizes, they don't even list them in them computer, Sorry"
Me: "Really? I literally just got this from your website the other day, it literally would have let me order them to your store"
Jim: "Maybe try keying in the item# and see what comes up?
Her: "Oh yeah here they are!"
Jim: "There we go, problem solved!"
Me: *facepalm*
Maybe it's just my Costco, or it's the state of the Auto Parts industry in general where people have no actual automotive experience and all they know is what a computer tells them.
What's really annoying is that if I had been a less pushy person and just accepted the "We don't carry imperial sizes" BS from "Jim", It would have been a complete waste of time and I would have left with nothing.

So i picked up these protein pancakes and....
1) they are actually delicious! taste like mcdicks pancakes
2) they are low in calories and sugar
3) 10g of protein each pancake! (Corrected by Honda it’s 10gram for 2 pancakes)
4) easy to prep, just zap for 2 minutes and boom ready for breakfast.

More and more Costco-sold clothing is making its way into my closet. I can't tell if this is because Costco offers better options for different body types, or whether my tastes are changing as I get older. I'm conflicted about how much their clothes appeal to me now, especially the selection out of their US warehouses. I'll probably roll up to CNY meals in full Costco-sourced attire - parent's disgusted looks be damned.
Anyone here tried these Takoyakis? Saw them in Bellingham this weekend.  | |

Admittedly it may be a decent replacement for a stack of flapjacks on a sunday morning treat, but don't fool yourself to start eating these daily for breakfast thinking it's nutritious.
Maybe this is why you are having a tough time in the weight loss accountability thread
