10th Costco Shopping in 2021 – $246.63 today / $1828.31 this year
My friend was having a bad day. Death in her family was only a part of it. So, I suggested that we go for Costco shopping and I could take her anywhere for dinner. She said she would like sushi. I said “OK”.
I haven’t been to Costco for over a month. I had a long Costco shopping list. At Costco, I quickly filled the shopping cart. And she picked up a cat litter, bagels, and a pair of stretchy pants.
“I’ll pay for everything, ” I said. That would make her feel better.
As we walked out, she changed her mind and told me she would like a slice of Costco pizza for dinner. I think she changed her mind because I paid for her Costco shopping. Maybe she couldn’t resist the smell of Costco pizza (?). Who knows.
Pandemic restriction update: Tables are back at Costco food court. So, we took off our masks and ate at the table.
I went to her house, drop off her stuff, and watched some stupid movie on TV. I don’t know what it was… the movie was stupid, but she liked it. So, that was good.
I hope everyone is having a good day. No bad day, please.
I will vacuum pack and freeze hot dog buns and franks. Now I can enjoy Costco hot dogs whenever I want for the next 6 months. The BBQ baby back ribs are also going in the freezer. I can thaw this whenever I want some baby back ribs, so I don’t have to go to a restaurant for it. My visitors know how much I hate restaurants. But, I will not criticize restaurants during the pandemic. I hope the business will pick up.
Reynolds aluminum foil will be on sale next month. I shall buy it again and return it with this receipt.

CDC relaxed mask rules considerably. You can now stop wearing the mask inside your Costco warehouse ONLY IF your state government allows. For example, in California, a mask is required.
It’s very simple: if the store says “Mask Required”, then the mask is required

U.S. locations with no state or local mask requirements – revised policy
In Costco locations where the state or local jurisdiction does not have a mask mandate, we will allow members and guests who are fully vaccinated to enter Costco without a face mask or face shield. We will not require proof of vaccination, but we ask for members’ responsible and respectful cooperation with this revised policy. Face coverings will still be required in healthcare settings, including Pharmacy, Optical, Hearing Aid. Costco continues to recommend that all members and guests, especially those who are at higher risk, wear a mask or shield.
U.S. locations with state or local mask requirements – no policy change
In those Costco locations where the state or local jurisdiction does have a mask mandate, we will follow the state or local regulations and continue to require members and guests to wear a face mask or face shield. Children under the age of 2 are exempt. If a member or guest has a medical condition that prevents them from wearing a mask, they must wear a face shield.
I’ve been working from home since last March (2020). After 15 months, my body is so used to being at home. I cannot imagine going back to work.
Finally, the words came down from the management. We are going back to the office on September 2021. We are currently collecting survey data to decide how many days in a week we should work from home… or not.
As much as I enjoy office work, working from home is the king. My dream is to retire and work part-time in an office environment, preferably as an entry-level accounting clerk. My current job is heavy-duty, which is OK because that means better pay.
I’ve been working from home for 61 weeks now. I now have 16 more weeks left for working from home. It’s been a scary time. God bless everyone. But working from home was sweet. I can listen to Johnny Guitar Watson as loud as I want.
For now, I am enjoying working from home.
Talk to you later. Time for a coffee break.
Deisy is a colleague at work. She’s 15 years younger than I am, and we are buddies. “Taca” is the term we use exclusively between us. We say “Taca” as a greeting, expression (happy, anger, fear, frustration..), and we call each other Taca. Office work is fun.
Total prep & cooking time: 15 minutes.
Ingredients used:
This is one of my favorite quick dinner. It takes so little time, and the meal is fantastic.
I put the pasta in boiling water, microwave the vegetables, and fried the fish – all at the same time.
Fish and vegetables were ready when the pasta was done (about 9 minutes). So the entire cooking time was about 10 minutes. I put them on a pretty plate and enjoyed them. This was an excellent dinner.
This is yet another example of how buying food in bulk benefits single people living alone. Costco is not just for people with big families. Frozen foods and dried pasta last a long time. You buy in bulk and enjoy them for a long time. It’s like… you are almost glad nobody loves you.
This is how some single men cook. Below is my dinner from last night. The prep time was about 15 minutes.
Chicken was from my August 2020 Costco Shopping (9 months ago). I thawed it overnight in the refrigerator. I also thawed some tortillas (I vacuum packed them in single serving size). I used a Soup Mix from World Market I purchased about a year ago. It’s a dry food with long shelf-life.
I boiled the soup mix with chicken for 1 hour. I topped the soup with shredded tortillas. And seasoned it with oregano, peppers, and Tapatio (hot sauce).
It was an excellent dinner. The chicken was tender and tasty. I always keep these Costco chicken breasts in my freezer. Once I make a soup like this, I will eat this for three days.
As a single person, buying bulk from Costco works for me. I save money and time. Also, Kirkland Signature products are high quality.
Vacuum, freeze, and enjoy.
