Happy Be-lated Fathers Day

Per husbands Fathers Day dinner request: Spinach ravioli’s. We cooked down Costco spinach first. Then I used my new red kitchen-aid stand up mixer I got on coupon sale from Costco to make homemade pasta.

Cheez-It Snap’d at Costco

My coworker introduced me to ‘Cheez-It Snap’d’. She bought it at Costco. So I took a few. Then I took a handful and took another handful. Before I knew it, I was driving to Costco for my lunchtime. They are very good. It’s cheesy and I taste a hint of tangy flavor.

Their TV commercial doesn’t do justice. I don’t like the commercial, to be honest.

Hemming Pants

Hemming pants is my latest hobby. I just started to sew a few weeks ago. For now, I am still getting used to my new sewing machine. I still have about 50 pairs of pants to hem. I shall hem jacket sleeves next.

I wish I can learn from a professional. There are local sewing classes, but they make pillows and decorations (stuff that I don’t need). I guess I will teach myself as I spend more time and make mistakes. But, it would be nice if somebody would give me a crash course – show me tricks.

It’s been fun so far. It adds spice to my wardrobes because I control the exact length of my pants. I’m glad I keep finding new hobbies to enjoy. It keeps me busy and engaged. It’s scary to imagine what if I run out of a hobby.

Below video is from today after work.

Update – July 4, 2019. I am here.

Oh My God.. I need to tell you about my latest obsession with my sewing machine and hemming pants. I have 60 pairs of pants in my regular rotation, and I plan to hem most of them. I hem my pants in 3-4 different lengths to accommodate different shoes/boots. Also, some pants look better at certain lengths.

I stopped sleeping in my master bedroom. Now I sleep in my guest bedroom (nap room). I have concluded that I get better sleep and have more vivid dreams in the guest bedroom. I know it sounds insane, but there is no mistaking. I get better sleep in my nap room, on the cheaper mattress.

I completely disagree with this person below. She’s supposed to be a professional. (???)

Girlfriend, I ALWAYS wake up and decide what color I will wear that day. Always. Some mornings I say that exact phrase – “I am having a purple day“. Picking the color of the day gets me going in the morning. You’ve seen my Instagram. It’s all about picking a color in the morning. If you decide clothes depend on who you see that day, you may be a prostitute or a clown.

Happy 4th of July. Talk to you soon. 🙂

Costco Shopping – May 24, 2019

21st Costco shopping in 2019 – $33.46 (today) / $1391.38 (this year)

I always buy Birds Eye’s Garlic Chicken ( 58 oz. #32919) when they are on sale. It’s a quick and tasty meal that doesn’t require side dishes. Naples Kitchen’s Hawaiian Style Chicken ( 48 oz. #37447) requires some planning. I will be eating BBQ ribs and some hot dogs on Memorial Day.

*Earlier today, 2 of my co-workers and I went to Costco for hot dogs. Feeling generous, I told them it was going to be my treat. I thought they would get pizza, hot dogs, maybe both. A female coworker was tiny, too. Anyway, Mofos ordered 2 Acai Bowls, 2 Pizzas, and 2 Drinks. I was out $18. I ate a hot dog.
