Filling the Larder

Last night, we went to Costco to restock our pantry for the holidays and beyond.  Surprisingly, the store wasn't too crowded for a Friday night in Winterpeg.  We suspect that was because the crowds were at the new Ikea store that opened here on November 28th.  It'll be a while before we darken the doors of that store.

We didn't get any Christmas gifts at Costco.  Our cart was full of food (mostly human and some dog) and a few toiletries.  I won't say how much we spent.  That would be embarassing.  Let's just say 'a lot' or maybe two or three times 'a lot'.

But we did have a cheap supper there before taking the cart to the car.  Polish sausage in a bun with all the fixings, an order of fries (boy, were they ever good!), and diet colas (because we were counting calories after all).

I took this photo from our plastic table, on my iPhone 5, as a souvenir of our shopping adventure.

It's not the greatest shot.  Probably because my hands were shaking a bit because I was so hungry and the food hadn't arrived at the table yet.
