The Costco in Pentagon does not carry the much Kirkland wine. I usually go to TJ but last trip, I bought their Asolo Prosecco, brought it to a party but they did not open it. I still have a bottle in the fridge but for $7.00, what the heck. I also bought the Concha y Toro m 6.99 and KS cabernet for $7.99
Yesterday, found new allergy to the spent flowers of lamb’s ear. Was harvesting it for my friend who went to Costco with me yesterday. I had to travel to Va as I like Pentagon best. She has a home in SF too She says the Pentagon branch does not have as much Kirkland brand as SF branch. Tough as it was very very hot and humid, and my son who. had to go to Dulles Airport for his trip was kind of late. It was MN before I returned home as I brought crabs ( from restaurant , not ours as my son is too busy to leave crab pot in river and I am too weak to pull it out this year), so, its 2 Pomeranians with me, it was kind of tough shopping. The male supervisor at Pentagon absolutely adores my moms while the female supervisor does not allow them. I took a chance if she is there, my friend’s husband would take them to the mall. They love shopping and love the attention that they get from customers there who ask to pose pictures with them, for th eir children to pat them, etc etc. I even had offers to buy them! My wolf would dance to cha cha cha if given treats from vendors!
I was only able to buy the same wines I purchased before bec they were good price, and did have on my list the Russian River Chardonnay but could not find it, Pauillac, their chianti. Next time perhaps.
I had to buy loads of kombucha which were on sale ( son drinks two bottles a day ) and they had to be refrigerated. Still have 3 cases on fridge but lagging it home in freezer chest is no fun
So, let my friend had the crabs, bought Chinese take out chicken chow fen( their treat) , made a salad from garden of cucumber with sesame oil, soy sauce , mirin and cider vinegar ( it was not good to my taste as they do not like to have
too much soy sauce, refused for me to add pepper and red crack vinegar.)
I also bought an apple pie for dinner
So, for next two weeks , I am not cooking. For starter, I bought a rotisserie chicken and when son comes back, his GF will be visiting from Amsterdam for 3 weeks, so a lot of cooking except on days when they head for beach (Outer banks or M vineyard)
