Costco Finds - August 2021

August 30, 2021


Hello blog friends.


We did a Costco run last week.  The refrigerator was so bare you could see tumbleweeds blowing in there.  Lol! 😉  I'd love to share with you some of my finds.




I found these Danskin leggings that are just perfect for exercising and working out.  I have them in the camo color and they feel so comfortable.

I saw this black sweatshirt that will be just perfect to wear for fall with my jeans and leggings.

I was so excited when I saw these Adidas sneakers for only $29.99.  I think they will be just perfect with jeans and leggings.

We have been buying my daughter's glasses in the eyeglass department for years.  They have a huge selection of designer frames at a great price.

I love this hibiscus tea and I was so excited to try it out.  I made a pitcher of iced hibiscus tea and it's delicious tasting.


I love adding feta cheese to my salads and in an omelette.

We love the unsweetened almond vanilla milk and the oat milk.  It comes in cartons that don't need to be refrigerated until you open them up.


I have been pretty good about snacking but I couldn't resist these PopCorners in the white cheddar flavor.  

We like the Tonkotsu ramen bowls.  When I make it I usually take out the spice packet, and I like to use half a packet of the pork flavoring.  This ramen is perfect for a quick lunch. 

I've bought the stuffed peppers numerous times and it's a favorite of ours.

We always buy the Ceasar salad and we're able to have it at least two times for lunch or dinner.

Have you  bought anything from Costco lately?

Let's Make Starbucks Iced Shaken Espresso at Home

August 24, 2021



Hello blog friends.  

I can't believe it's been six weeks since my last blog post.  I'm back from my blogging break with a yummy iced coffee recipe. 
 

We love making Starbucks drinks at home.  You might remember this Starbucks Copycat Red Eye Drink I shared a few years ago. 

Well, making this Starbucks Iced Shaken Espresso has been our favorite drink this summer.

It's so easy to make and tastes delicious.  This drink, a Grande Iced Shaken Espresso costs about $4 at Starbucks.  You can have this drink made in minutes at home. 

My Iced Shaken Espresso Drink!

I used oat milk for my drink but you can use any kind of milk that you like.  I added ice cubes to a large cup with a lid.

I made the espresso using one capsule in our Nespresso espresso machine.

I added the espresso to the cup.

Next, I added the oat milk to the cup.

Next, you shake it up.  

The drink is done and so simple to make.

ICED SHAKEN ESPRESSO


INGREDIENTS:
  • ice cubes
  • espresso - made with 1 capsule in Nespresso espresso machine
  • milk of choice - I used oat milk
  • sugar of choice - I did not use any sugar

DIRECTIONS:

Take a cocktail shaker or jar with a tight lid and add ice cubes.  Next, pour the espresso over the ice cubes.  Add your milk of choice and sugar, then shake it all together.  Next, pour the shaken espresso into a large glass.

NOTES:  For my Iced Shaken Espresso drink, I like to use oat milk and no sugar.


YUMMY ICED SHAKEN ESPRESSO!


I hope you enjoy making your own Iced Shaken Espresso.  😋
