Lunch at Costco
Every time we go shopping at Costco, my kids beg me to eat lunch there — I ALWAYS veto this request.
Today we spent a good hour wandering around, picking up things on our list and a few things that weren’t. As we wandered around, I thought to myself, “I should suggest picking up something to take home and cook for lunch, that way I can avoid the whole, lets eat a Costco, issue all together.
NO!
We checked out and sure enough my daughter was right on cue, “daddy, daddy, please can we eat at Costco?” I couldn’t say no. I wandered over to the food counter, placed our order — 2 hot dogs, 1 cheese pizza, 1 combo pizza and two fruit smoothies.
We sat and ate and laughed and smiled. Wow. That felt…AMAZING.
