Any suggestions between cordless cellular shades, wood blinds, and roman shades for living areas? We have toddlers.

cordless non-slat shades are supposed to be the safest if you have little kids

Well, none of you were joking about the cinnamon loaf. It's like the perfect amount of moistness in a bread/cake I've ever experienced.

Thanks to whomever was working the bakery that saw the previous person barely dusting the loaves with sugar and decided to make it rain on all the loaves they were packing up.

They are very comfortable and nice. Sizing seems accurate, with a little bit of room to spare.

They just built one 12 minutes away which is finally why we got a membership. The only other ones in the area are 30 and 35 mins, respectively. We used to have a membership a while back when I worked around the corner from one of the stores and could go at lunch but up until today we just had my MIL get stuff for us at the store down south where she lives.

I throw some Cajun seasoning on the motor city pizzas and they are great.

Have you tried the Motor City cheesy bread? I think it's better than the pizza itself.

also same.

3-pack of butter loaf just sounds like far too much food for a 2person apartment. the best thing that used to exist about having a big office job was being able to bring in extra costco muffins or costco cake and leave it in the breakroom and not feel bad about wasting a bunch of food. i'd prob get it if it was a single loaf.

you should have thought about that before you moved out to fucksticks, missouri :mad:

. and is that 1.5 each way?? because yeah no, i'd maybe do that once a year to stock up on bulk rice, flour, butter, salt, canned beans, sugar, paper towels, etc, but no spending 3 hours out of my day driving to a costco and back just sounds awful.

maximum i'd say is 45-minutes each way; unless i also had reasons for going out further. i'm ~10-15 minutes from a costco and it still feels like too long.

In Iowa it was 2.5 hours to Des Moines or 3 hours to Minneapolis to the nearest Costco. We took a truck and went about once every 3 months.

I love being 10 minutes from costco, it's literally closer to me than the nearest mall.

Downside is that there is currently only one Costco in my city of 3million people. Can't wait for them to open the second one which should calm down the chaos on weekends.
