UP YOUR CHEESE INTAKE!

P'tit Basque:
$17.99 for a large round piece.

Also, the Halloumi cheese is fantastic.  I need to find the info on this....
you can cook it on a grill pan.  AWESOME!  you can bread it with a little seasoned breadcrumbs & then cook on lightly oiled grill pan.  Yes.  
Can be cooked on grill outside, too.
Drizzle with a little lemon juice, olive oil & sprinkle with a little salt & pepper.  
Would be great served in a salad.  Yes.  

I'm just sayin'.....


FISH, NOT FISHY

The tortilla-crusted tilapia is really good.  I will buy this again.  Comes in the frozen section. Bake in oven for 10-12 minutes.  

try it.  you'll like it.

YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS GOOD IF.....

Your family asks you to buy it again!

THE LETTUCE WRAPS.  

(you can find more info about these in a previous post.....Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner)

MASCARA

I've been a little hesitant to try any of the Kirkland Brand makeup.  I got the Kirkland Mascara & I really like it.  I tend to be a little sensitive to eye makeup/products & I've been using this for over a week/no problems!  2 tubes for $14.

YOU REALLY SHOULD....

Try the self-checkout aisle if you haven't already.  
I'm just saying....
sometimes the folks that are checking you out get a little distracted talking to their co-workers or whatever.  

AND there is someone there to help you with the big bulky items that you can't lift to scan.

THIS IS SO MUCH FASTER, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT'S A BUSY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SMOOTHIE UPDATE

Child #2 has given a thumbs up on the Yoplait Frozen Smoothies.  Had to add more than 1 cup of milk to get the right consistency.  This will be a great breakfast on-the-go for C2.  No time for sitting down at the table for the first meal of the day.  Need to get breakfast tray installed in car....
like in this Rolls Royce Silver Cloud! 

SOMEBODY HELP!

I've had several people recommend the Lime Cilantro Shrimp.  Well what's up?? I look for it every time I go, and it's never there.  When I ask the guy (behind the counter), he says "it wasn't on our list of items to make today".  I ask, "is there a particular day I have to come?".  He says, "no...we never know when we're going to make it."  

"Bunny" said that you can ASK them to make it up for you while you're there.  I tried asking.  That didn't work, either.  

Now what?

OH ME!

Just tried the Handy/Panko Crusted Soft-Shell Crabs*.  Yes, they are AWESOME!  Sauteed them in a little oil just like "What's Cooking" mentioned.  Served them on toasted buns, with shredded lettuce, tomato, avocado & the Jalapeno Cheese dip/spread (costco).  

Woo hoo!  The Significant Other said he couldn't remember the last time I served a fried food for dinner.  This was worth it!
