Hello Sandy! Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed Luna's silliness.

Good morning to you and your grocery helper, love all your grocery hauls. l have been on keto for 2 months and have lost 12 pounds.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Congrats on the weight loss. Hope you’re feeling great! Thanks for watching!

Will do!! Working on it!

Thank you so much 😊

[@maggiec3366]

id love to see video of you organizing your food storage area and talking about what you think is best to have

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I am no expert but thanks for the great idea. I will add it to my list. About time for another pantry/food storage/ freezer tour!

[@loris1360]

My cat chews through the bag too if I leave it out lol.

These cats, they can be naughty when they want something, can't they!

Glad you mentioned how you liked those pupusas because they look tasty

They are good, a little plain, but with a bunch of good toppings, I enjoyed several of them. 10 minutes in the air fryer and they were perfect!

Thank you so much Lucy 😃

[@deidrecruickshank7975]

Hi there, my favourite way to eat cottage cheese is to toast some bread, spread with peanut butter, and spread the cottage cheese on to of that. Yummo! I love Miss Luna! She's such a cute tabby.

[@rhondaboggs5539]

Your eggs are cheaper than what I have to pay for them here. Five dozen eggs here are $17.99. The milk is about the same price. I always enjoy the Cotsco hauls because I love listening to Everett. He is such a joy to watch. Hope y'all have an amazing day ❤️❤️

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

That is a lot for the eggs! So glad you like to spend time with us!

[@margaretroten281]

you should send just mark n Everett to see how they make out. but u can't tell them what to get.. n see how they do it would be fun to see how they do

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

That would be interesting. I will ask Mark if he is up for it, not sure the filming and shopping would be something he would want to juggle.

Love her and all her grumpiness.

[@mariakoufalis1487]

Have you tried adding chick peas to your salads as a protein? As for the cottage cheese I love it with pineapple bits or berries. A couple of dollops on your salad is also delicious.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Great ideas! I have not added chick peas and thanks for the cottage cheese Ideas as well. Thanks for watching!!

[@donnamacleod2947]

Luna was looking for a sample. Glad Everett got lots of samples. Great haul,Lauren.

Everett is such a sweet young man! I was wondering where Miss Luna was! Lol! She was a naughty little girl getting into her food🤪but I'm sure her Mama forgave her!❤️❤️❤️ great haul!! I have to try those pecans!! Have a great week Sweetie 🙂❤️

[@jessicasweeney789]

I enjoy your videos, especially when Everett get the samples. Base on his reaction can tell if the samples are good or not. Keep the videos rolling. Enjoy

[@suzanneford2434]

You can recan the peppercinies, into pint size jars so you only use a few at a time

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Good idea!!

[@bettyruth9142]

I agree with you about trying on clothes!! I feel like it is more private to try on at home!! I have bought a lot of clothing from Costco also !! Love your weekly Costco shopping !! Everett sure likes the samples!! Can’t wait to see the video with the Outdoor Boys !! Bet your boys had a blast with them !!! 😀😀😀😀

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Exactly!! Need to be home and comfortable to enjoy trying on clothes. Thanks for watching, have a wonderful weekend.

They are very strong, but I agree they are tasty. Have a wonderful day!

“Let’s go home and do the haul”. Love it!!! 🥰

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Love it!!

[@lindahines4960]

Hey Lauren!! Hey Everett!! Loved your grocery haul♥️. I want to remember to get some of the glazed pecans they look so delicious and especially putting them on a salad like you do. That’s so funny and cute that your kiddos get so excited when people leave food at your B&B!!! The shorts you got were really cute. Can’t wait to see your clothing try on. Have a wonderful weekend!! Love you all 🥰

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I filmed my try on, not sure anyone will really want to see it. I am no fashion expert!! Thanks for watching, we are so grateful to have you here.

[@kathyjones6103]

Hey beautiful…great haul. I wish we could get the big Biscoff biscuits here in Australia from Costco ..my favourite xxx

Will you please put the asperagus salad online ??? all the best from france

Yes! Coming soon. I will have to find the link. I am in the process of making a salad video so keep an eye out !

Kaladis is the only coffee I will drink, so so good, and for those of you coffee love's in the lower 48, if you want to try the best coffee ever they deliver :-)

[@carollandrum9223]

68° would be lovely. It's going to be about 88° in my part of Georgia today. No matter how full a kitties bowl is, it's always empty. How does spinach freeze? I would think it's like freezing lettuce.

[@curlybibliophagist]

I went to Sam's and the eggs were $9.99 for the pack of 2- 18 count packs. When I bought the same pack a couple of weeks before, it was $3.49 or so. We eat cottage cheese over buttered egg noodles. My great-grandmother was Hungarian and called it Poor Man's Pierogies.

[@marcellahicks3984]

I am going to try this. What a great idea

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

That is a big jump in eggs. WOW! Thanks for the cottage cheese idea. I heard someone recently say they make their lasagna with cottage cheese, might have to try that too!

[@charlenejones68]

I would use cottage cheese instead of ricotta cheese sometimes when making homemade lasagna. 🙂

[@nancykropf3809]

They probably made arrangements earlier since you were going to be gone.

[@maddy-i6o]

Reminds me of shopping with my youngest son

[@lindacosta3960]

[@VickiMcCormick-jf5pe]

I eat cottage cheese in my salads. I loveit. My mom used to take out the guts of the tomatoes, but leave the tomatoes whole. Mix the cottage cheese with the insides of the tomatoes. Salt pepper and some garlic salt. Put the mixture back inside of the tomatoes. Garnish with whatever is your favorite. Chill and enjoy.

[@ArinMadrid]

Their lobster ravioli in the deli/cheese section they have is phenomenal. Can’t remember the brand…but so worth it.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

YUM!

[@traceymcpherson8095]

You may want to try asparagus cooked in a skillet with dates sunflower seeds and dried cranberries. Very delicious. The asparagus should be cooked on low heat done eldaunte.

He’s so cute wanting to try all the samples. 😝 I never stop for them, but maybe I should cuz that shrimp scampi one looked pretty good.

Awesome haul! Everett was adorable as always! Looks like he didn't like some of the samples. But at least he tried them. He was all into that pasta though! 😂 My kitties are sometimes naughty too. But I always forgive them! Hope you have a wonderful Mother's Day. Going to be a rough one for me. My first Mother's Day without my mother.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Hello sweet friend. I was just having lunch with my friend and this is her first Mother's day without her mom too, I could feel her pain as she talked. I will make sure to send extra prayers for you this Mother's day, she is watching down on you. Much love from Alaska!

[@donnamorgan6072]

What a doll Everett is!! So cute snd I love all the shopping and haul videos. What kind of salad are you making for yourself? It sounds really good and I need to try it. I’m trying to eat healthier but it’s confusing; and also trying to go gluten free! Any ideas??? Have a great week!’

I am in the process of filming two videos you may find helpful. A salad video and a health update. Hopefully I will get those out sooner rather than later! Thanks for watching!

Yeah my cat that just died a few weeks ago he used to do that stuff all the time I miss my boy

[@brilliantbutblue]

You are wonderful and amazing yourself Lauren. I'm hearing you on the try on in store, l wanted to try a couple of dresses on in store today and you know l had the wrong bra and wrong shoes on, same as you brought them home to try on then see if l like them, also not sure if you are feeling like me but what is with the sizing now days? I have always been a US 8 like in forever now l seem to be a US 6 and nope lm not any smaller, wasn't just the style as l have had to downsize in my gym shorts and tanks recently also l think they are pulling one over us on sizes, hope what you get from Target is perfect🙂. Luna likes the fresh stuff tastes way better than the identical food in her bowl 🤭. Everett had a low yield sampies day, glad he got a sundae as a treat. Thanks for sharing 👍

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Hello friend! HATE trying on at the store. The sizes can be so crazy and frustrating! Even in the same style pant but in different colors.... like really?? Anyways, I filmed the first part of the try-on, not sure anyone will be interested but I'll put it out soon. Thank you so much for shopping at Costco with us, we are so grateful.

[@janicelynn3787]

Next time maybe try to get some boxes to put smaller things in.

[@racheloram]

I never understand how Americans seem to keep bread in the fridge for so long! It makes me wonder about the ingredients a bit. Fridges actually make bread more moist and can increase the chances of bread mould occurring due to the high humidity. It must be due to the ingredients and how cold your fridges are that seems to keep bread fresh. It's like how long creamers last, that really confuses me - dairy shouldn't last that long!

[@racheloram]

I'm not saying this to be mean or pass judgement etc, it's just odd little things that are different between the US and UK that really stands out to me

[@curlybibliophagist]

Heavy cream, half and half and some milks are ulta pasteurized, which really extends the life of them. If I buy regular bread like Wonder, etc, I keep it in my pantry, which is dark, cool and dry and it'll last a couple of weeks. No-preservative bread, like an all natural bread, goes in the freezer and I take out pieces as needed. It lasts until we eat it all.

[@marcellahicks3984]

Garden Centers have good Straw Hats, you have to tell us more about Hunters Pioneer Adventure. I am so interested. Wanted to get that out of the way before I forgot. Lauren, I love shopping with you, you always find the greatest stuff. If you like creamy cheese try Burrata Cheese for on top of pasta. It is a Fresh Mozzarella but creamy. On top of pasta, it makes it taste like Lasagna it would taste good on the Purpusa? The bread from food truck. Those look so good. I bet your guys are gonna love that. Do they have alot of Food Trucks in Alaska? Traveling restaurants greatest freshest Food, such talent. Let me know about those Shorts. I am on the hunt for some new ones to my knees. I sometimes wear biker shorts under those shorter summer dresses. If you find a place that sells mid length dresses please share. I am always looking but never have time. That water table looked awesome. How fun. Happy Mothers Day to the World 's Greatest Mom to your Son's and All Your Viewers!!! I hope you have the Happiest of Days.

Yes we do!

[@jaybee608]

I am always surprised that the prices at Costco in your part of Alaska seems so reasonable. Especially the clothing. Oh Lauren, it's a reason why Everett loves that particular cereal. It's addictive and it really sticks to your teeth. I stop buying it for my daughter when she was young. Lots of cavities. I literally had to brush for her. Luna had something to say about the haul. Did she get everything she wanted?😊

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I know, the cereal is so bad. We only get that type maybe once a year! Luna enjoyed getting into everything for sure! Have a wonderful weekend.

[@TheAmydowell]

Is there a lid for the cat food trash can? Her food could be going stale and she may prefer the fresh hence the bitten bag 😂

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

The food is good but I have thought of a lid. She just loves to eat through bags to get food and treats!

[@wildaboutalaska3833]

What food truck did you get the Pupusas from? I bought the Costco ones and my husband loved them. Another great Costco vlog!

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Mochileros it was in Girdwood at the time we had it

[@ArinMadrid]

Oh nice. I was wondering if they had plants yet. Were there hanging baskets yet?

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

The hanging baskets seem to fly off the shelf. I haven't been able to snag any flower ones yet

[@mandywhitton]

[@krystynaieromina343]

Do you have local Alaskan food at Costco? (like famous Alaskan berry jams maybe) My husband and I are traveling to Anchorage next week and we are wondering what would be a good place to get some local delicious presents that are not too expensive.

Is that peanut butter powder any good? Do you mix it in protein shakes?

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

Yes! I love it in my protein shake

[@ArinMadrid]

Churro strips….sounds like cra€k for adults. I’d eat it in one sitting I’m sure. You must be doing keto because it looks like you’re buying several things I would that are low carb. I also several months back tried the Kirkland brand Irish butter that is supposed to be comparable to kerrigold and I like it just as much…and it’s cheaper. And I love how he asks what he’s eating as he’s chomping down on his cauliflower bite and he says he doesn’t like it but he continues eating it. Made me laugh. I’m also totally with you on the whole self-control thing with sweet and salty stuff. I have to just not carry it in my house or I will devour it. No self control with that

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

I am not doing Keto but am willing to try different things that sound good, even if they are low carb. Snacky things are so dangerous. I will be doing a health update really soon to explain my plan right now.

[@jamiepalmer9316]

The Churro Strips are VERY good. Not super sweet.

[@trong-tinnguyen1962]

Debarr Costco

[@ArinMadrid]

I’m not a fan of those albanese gummy bears. I still have half a bag sitting in the cabinet at home. The ones that they sell at the gas station I think have different flavors and there’s two of the flavors in the big bag that you get at Costco that I just don’t care for.

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

They do have different flavors in different packages. We love them but I can see how they wouldn't be for everyone.

[@cathybennion6070]

Love the striped shorts because they are not black. Lol.
