Costco came to this neck of the woods!
Along with my friends, family and climate (and all that goes with those), I have very much missed Costco and Trader Joe's the past two years!
Alas, a Costco opened in Peoria (about 20 min from us) on Hudson's birthday!
It has made some things a little easier here. One of the struggles here was finding affordable healthy food. I found some places, but all things are not located in one place, so I've had to go to multiple places to get what I need. I'm starting to get used to it now, but it sure is nice to have a Costco, not only for the help and added ease it brings, but because I feel almost like I'm at home when I'm in there :). All Trader Joe's and Costcos pretty much look and feel the same inside. I think that may be part of my love for them, because I feel at 'home' in them since I frequented them so much at 'home'.
Doug is even as excited as I am to have a Costco here :).
AND! Chipotle opened yesterday in Peoria, too! We haven't been yet, but will soon :).
Trader Joe's, what are you waiting for?!
Is it sad what we get excited about here?!
Definitely helps me not to take anything for granted.

haha, yay!!!! I'm not sure what I'd do without Costco.
And Chipotle - double bonus! Our friends laugh at us because our kids think its fast food :)
Brooke this is funny! I'd never heard of it before it came to EP, and now Tim & I are executive members. Woohoo! I'm headed there to shop for the first time on Friday; I'm looking forward to getting acquainted. AND I missed talking to you at the PP party. I know you were there because you're in one of my px, but I didn't see you or Doug the whole evening! Hope you're doing well!
