Costco Disconnection
If you asked my family, they may describe my relationship with Costco as a special one. I do most of the grocery shopping for our family and I do most of it at Costco. I have belonged to our local store since it opened many years ago and even have a favorite parking spot (though I rarely get it). My youngest often goes with me and we enjoy snack-shopping (being fed lots of samples while we shop) and having lunch together after we shop. My chili recipe ingredients starts with two big packs of Costco ground chuck, a big pack of red peppers, a huge can of whole tomatoes, and a huge can of tomato paste (I should explain that we have a huge freezer and this recipe makes enough for about ten meals).
