I’m sharing a roundup of my favorite healthy Costco foods!
Hiiii! How are you; I hope you have a wonderful day! I have an exciting Zoom call this am, and then we’re taking Liv to her first contact lens class. He’s been wanting these for quite some time so I hope he loves them.
For today’s post, let’s talk about the club.
The only club I’ve been doing lately lol.
I really love Costco, which is one of the most adult things for me. I can go there for five things and spend a thousand dollars though, so I don’t go very often. When we go, we stock up on our favorite favorites, and it’s so fun to see what new products and brands they have. They’ve really upped their game on organic and minimally processed options in recent years, so I wanted to shout out some of my favorites.
I would love to hear about your Costco products too!
