Any goons have experience with the rope lights that are on sale? - https://www.costco.com/led-color-changing-18-ft.-rope-light-with-remote.product.100672951.html

We had a rope light on our back fence that has been there for almost a decade before it failed.

Get yourself a caseta outdoor plug and pico switch so you can control them on with a remote. It's cool as gently caress

We got the banjo skeletons a few years back and I really like them. Only bummer is they can only be outside of on a porch where they have some protection from the elements.

Really want that reaper, but the fact that it isn't 12ft is bugging me for some reason. Not that I'm likely to have a chance at getting the 12ft ones at retail anytime...

Same.

I was allowed only one additional skele this year so I opted for another 12 footer and he's sitting in my living room on the couch. Technically he's the entire couch. I'm thinking about calling him Earl.

I have too many skeletons, according to my housemate.

My housemate is incorrect, until my housemate pays some drat bills.

Church used to have a Kirkland sliced turkey lunchmeat in the cooler section but I haven't seen it for going on 4 months now. Has it been discontinued?
Or is this the dreaded supply chain issues denying me once more?


Also, curse you, Costco, for addicting me to them 4505 Chicharrones then not having them in stock when I visit!

I like 'em a lot. The beans are super smooth & pretty bland, so they basically taste like just cheese pupusas to me.

There are two separate packs of 5 inside, which is good because that masa tends to mold fast, so I once I open one, it's all-pupusas-all-the-time until I finish off five. One pupusa, 70 secs in the microwave, lunch is done.

I saw this last time I was there. I just went through a package of turkey and was reminded why I rarely buy it. It's good meat that is minimally processed and sliced thick. The side effect being its hard to get the slices apart without them falling apart. I also just don't like turkey that much.

Close. RealGood. They are keto, but also garbage as is basically everything else by that company. I did decide to buy some bacon wrapped cheese stuffed chicken breasts they put out on sale at my local Costco. I figured at $4 off, for under $10, i'll give them 1 more shot.

If they ruin chicken + bacon + cheese, they really have no reason to be a company.

Re: Keto

Please keep in mind the Realgood brand chicken enchiladas are lower in quality than cat food and are one of the most returned items at my store. I literally couldn't make it through a single one. The worst thing I've ever seen at Costco.

My church had olive salad today so I picked up some salami and I'm gonna go ham on some muffaletta sandwiches this week. I also picked up refills on my blood pressure meds so I'm gonna be okay. Plus I got Haagen-Daz peppermint bark ice cream bars for my wife and the Waterloo fall flavor seltzer pack for both of us. I'm drinking a bourbon and spiced apple seltzer right now (with Limmi lemon juice, also from Costco). PBUC

Totally, I just don’t think the savings are as grand as other items, bulk or not. I don’t have a TJ nearby but assuming you’re paying something like $1.50-$2 per bar, that’s about in line with everything at the ‘Co.
Yeah RXbars and barbells are $1.99 each which is probably me paying the Jersey tax to some extent. Perhaps I'll try their house brand sometime...

Yeah, they can be a bit soggy post-microwave, depending on the humidity. I usually just flip one onto a new plate, but I can see how frying them would help!

I forgot to mention there are also air-fryer instructions on the package, for some reason. Tried that once and did not like how it turned out at all; super dry and tough. I kinda feel like they just slapped those on there to help people feel better about owning an air fryer or something.

I thought those bacon wrapped stuffed chicken breasts were good. The enchiladas were def garbage though.

Are you microwaving them in a paper towel? That helps absorb some of the moisture

E: i bought some of those enchiladas when they were on sale and yeah they were pretty bad, but edible when i was high

The standard would be if they are edible with slathering on some 505 sauce.

Didn't have room in the fridge for the pupusas, so I tossed 'em in the upright freezer. Put them right on the rack of our convection oven (I was heating up all 5) and they warmed up nicely, but a little tough. My wife likes the insides to be melt-your-face-off hot, so she put them in the microwave for a little and it helped the texture. Obviously they can take a beating and about the only thing you probably shouldn't do is boil them.

They're wider/longer than the ones we get at the pupusaria, but less stuffed. I thought they were pretty good.

Yea I actually just made some and they are really good. I'm gonna pick up some more next time i'm at the Co. I'd definitely do some of the cooking under the broiler to crisp up the bacon. I'd recommend the grill but they pop about 3/4 through and that's no good for a grill.
