Good evening Lauren and Mark and family and thank you for sharing your beautiful day 🌞

[@mandyhopkins9027]

Everett is so loving and thoughtful, not many 4 year olds would think they wanted to get flowers for their mother. He really has a big heart, also love his chain of thought about the safe to lock his snacks in hahaha

[@ThisAlaskaLife]

He was so sweet! I will make sure to let him next time he asks! He is so funny about snacks, they are his love language!

That “vanilla bean “ by Everette sounded southern. 😂 I’m from South Mississippi. That was cute. I just started watching your channel. I’ve enjoyed it, I’ve learned a lot about Alaska. It’s crazy for me to get my mind around the weather and prices. Mississippi very rarely gets snow, (last time was in 2017) it doesn’t even get to cold here. It’s very hot and humid. The cost of living is much less, in a lot of places the quality of living matches the cost. (Not every where) I love learning differences in law, regulations between Alaska and other parts of the US. It’s such a gorgeous place. I’d love to visit in the summer.

[@carolwhisenhunt7504]

Sampie sampie. It has been a long time since I bought animal crackers. Loved buying all the extras. Lol tell Everett I liked and subscribed. Lol. Love that sweet boy.

I try to go during the senior hours either Tuesdays or Thursdays we’ve had that since 2020. Raos is the best sauce.

Another great Costco Haul!!! I have to get Gary in there. When he was able to walk, I would get so frustrated because I would ask him a question and when I turned around he wasn't there. I would find him getting samples. He is so much like Everett. I wonder on Saturday's if they have more samples. Weekends are much busier. I cannot wait to see what's on the menu, for your cooking vlogs. I made the Mexican Lasagna, it was so gooood!! Lent is coming up soon, can you make some fish recipes, Catholic's don't eat Meat on Fridays. I am always looking for ideas. Lip Balm, bathroom, dining room, desk, wallet, car, office desk, massage room, coat. GARY said just like you. BURTS BEE has a variety pack at Christmas. They have a pomegranate and a mandarin. Love them. But my favorite is Aveda. Gas here $3.45 today. But I bet it will go up .10 over weekend. Illinois taxes and so does local. Natural gas went up 2x's. We might have to get a wood stove for supplement heat. It is getting to be to much. Thanks for taking us along. Gary loves shopping with you and Everett. You cannot know what a joy this brings to the homebound. To see inside a store, and putz around with you. We catch ourselves talking to you both. Big hugs Hamm Family

I've been able to buy (beef) skirt steak on "manager's special" @$4.99 for 1 lb. - 1 1/2 lbs.; I cut it up into fork-size pieces, and it makes very tender meat for stews and Swiss steak.

I would 100% be looking for meat deals like that if we didn't have a freezer full. The price of meat is so crazy!

[@DOSBoxMom]

@@ThisAlaskaLife I remember from reading former Gov. Palin's memoirs that it seems like a lot of Alaskans stock their freezers with meat & fish that they've hunted or fished for themselves. I got the same impression from an Alaskan cookbook I read once, which contrasted pre-pipeline and post-pipeline grocery shopping habits in Alaska (among other things).

I recently bought a jar of the Rao's pasta sauce at my local supermarket for $4.99 -- just before the price went up! I've seen the 2-packs of Rao's @$9.99 in Costco haul videos from the "lower 48." How much are those 8-packs of the 3-bean blend? I like making slow cooker chili a lot during the cold-weather months, too. (And I'll have to remember those 4 x 1lb. packs of hamburger for the chili, too!)
