Hi Everyone,

2nd blog entry today.

Many of you have heard me singing the praises of Costco. Well get ready for another verse... Today, after running some errands in the area, I went over there to do a little shopping. I didn't really buy much, just a truckload of juice. Anyway, back to my point. There's something about a vendor bought hot dog that is just so much better than something that you make at home. I don't exactly know what it is. Maybe it's the foil/paper wrap. Maybe it's the huge bun that the vendors serve. Or the toppings. Or the tasty 1/4 pound of polish sausage. Whatever it is, it's very tasty. Today I had a Costco hot dog and it was excellent. And such a value - I was able to eat lunch for less than 2 bucks. It made my stomach and my wallet smile.

Finally, I want to tip my child care hat to the moms and dads that are out and about by themselves, taking care of business with their young kids in tow. I have trouble keeping my stuff together (myself included) when I'm shopping - I don't think I'd be able to work it while taking care of a child at the same time.
