My Must Buys at Costco

Costco is so well known in America, and seems to have just grown in popularity with haul culture and Tiktoks! As an American who has never been to the American Costco, I have always been curious if it would really live up to the hype in the United Kingdom. We’ve got a few friends that go to Costco regularly, but haven’t had the chance to go ourselves, until one evening Dann decided to look it up (possibly due to them selling my absolute favorite American fruit snacks), and realize he qualified for Trade Member due to his job. We then got Trade cards and decided to check out this massive shop. We’ve been going for a few months now, and often only pick up one or two things (along with those legendary free samples, which you can see me enjoying on Reels – yes we have samples in the United Kingdom), and have quickly picked up a bunch of favorites.

Midweek Meal Inspo; Beef Pho, Caesar Salad Pizza, Salmon Bowl and more.

This week has been a mix of light dinners and quick dinners, along with a lot of cooking from Dann! Being back to school, after Easter Break, always comes with some hiccups, and having meals that are much faster to make is just what’s best for our family as we go back to the routine of getting up early and being back at clubs. I am so looking forward to the slower paced summer that is right around the corner.

The Bustronome experience takes you all around iconic landmarks in London, while serving very fancy looking French food! There is a four course lunch option as well as a six course dinner option, depending on what time of day you end up going.

The Veggie Cookbook – Pickled Cucumber and Tofu Glass Noodle Salad Recipe

[Ad- gifted product] We are huge fans of Higgidy and have tried out a bunch of their foods previously, so when they sent us The Veggie Cookbook, we were pretty excited to see what foods they had instore for us. This cookbook’s goal is to get people to experiment more with veggies and cook with more veggies. These meals are all vegetarian, but some play more as side dishes and others could easily have your swapping out tofu for chicken, for example. It’s a really flexible book that has a bunch of staples, bigger vegetable meals, and more.

Category Is: Cocktails – Drag Race Cocktail Recipes

[Ad- gifted product] Dann and I are a big Rupaul Drag Race fans, watching the series time and time again on WOW TV, where we have a subscription just to watch Drag Race after the series was removed from Netflix in the United Kingdom. When I heard there was a cocktail recipe book called Category Is: Cocktails, with Kim Chi on the front cover, I felt it was either going to be fantastic or terrible, with no in between.
