Costco Cherries

Plump, firm, sweet and juicy, the best cherries that I've had in a really long time.  Maybe ever. 

I-don't-care-for-fruit Landon said that they were "frickn"good.

The description on the top of the container says "10 row & larger".  According to Google:  A 10-row cherry means exactly 10 cherries fit in a line across a standard 10.5 inch box, making it roughly an inch in diameter.  Cherries that are 10-row and larger command premium prices, offering a meatier, juicier bite with a higher fruit-to-pit ratio. 

According to Wendell the cherries were only $3.69 for a 2-pound tub.  Can that be right?  Don't go buy yet.  Wait.  I want to get another container (or two) first.  

Costco Blueberry Cheesecake Croissant

As soon as Wendell busted this out from his shopping bag I said, "Oh no!"  

And yup, it was "oh-no-licious".  I cut one into four pieces thinking I'd just eat a fourth.  But nooooo, I went back for another piece.

 

It's so cheap by today's standards.

Landon came into some money (poker winnings) so he treated us to some Chinese food with a few $$upgraded$$ versions from what we usually order.

Salt and Pepper Squid ($22.95).  I really liked the onion-garlic topping.  Wish they had put more.

 

Singapore Chow Fun ($20.95)  Curry-flavored hit that Wendell looooved.

   

Dried Scallop Foo Young ($27.95)   Not worth the additional $10 for the dried scallops IMO.

 

Honey Walnut Shrimp ($23.95).  Ono as usual.

   

Crispy Garlic Seafood Fried Rice ($28.95)  This was really good, but don't think I'd order it again.  Unless Landon is paying again 😂.

  

Bubble Blower

I got a small bubble blowing contraption from the swap meet for $2.  

No Gasoline in Russia

Oh, boo hoo.  "When will this end?"  Umm . . . maybe when YOUR country stops trying to invade YOUR neighbor?

DNA Kit

We recently did a DNA test on Kai and found out that he is 5% poodle!!  Kai is a Goldendoodle!  No wonder he's so smart.

I got this Ancestry DNA test kit for myself. I always assumed that I was 100% Japanese, but who knows, maybe I could be 5% Korean from way back, right?

The kit is on sale on Amazon for 67% off right now.  It's $39 instead of $119.  Doubt I woulda paid $119.  

I'll let you know the results.  It could take up to 6 weeks.
