These Christmas candies are only available for the holiday season (October – December). So, I had to stock them up.

Chocolates of the World expires on June 1, 2011. So, I put one jug in the freezer and the second jug in the refrigerator. This way, I will enjoy fresh chocolate until the next holiday season. I’ll make the cookies to last several months. I couldn’t find the expiration date on the cookies. I may have to buy a few more cans of cookies. My guests love those cookies. They eat ’em up.

$80.00 for candy sounds extreme, but they will last a long time. If you look at the entire year, I spend less money on candy than most people. I don’t even drink soda too often (to save money). 

Bad pictures – my apartment has a bad lighting

This is what I did last year. I bought 4 jugs of Chocolates of the World and put “opening dates” on them. I still haven’t finished the last jug.

Jose’s Coffee came to my Costco today. I bought a bag of Butterscotch Toffee coffee.

I will enjoy this coffee throughout the Holiday season. I was hoping Jose Coffee would come to my Costco warehouse. Jose’s Coffee will complete my holiday season in 2010. I was excited.

Of course, I bought a bunch of candies. I always eat chocolate.

I bought a set of fancy soaps as a Christmas gift for my friend. I figured girls like that kind of stuff. I don’t know what I’ll do if she doesn’t like this… I guess I’ll give her some cash.

Coupon saved $6.00 (Vitamin B & Dove soaps)

As I was checking out, 2 Costco employees commented about the number of candies I had.

Costco turned 27 years old today.

Costco opened its first warehouse in Seattle, Washington, on September 15, 1983.

Happy Birthday, Costco.

They sent me a new American Express card.

The new card has a black backside, and it says “Executive”

I am getting ready for a fun Labor Day weekend alone.

I am going to have 2 friends over on Saturday, but it will be just for a few hours.

As you know, I know the art of being alone. I always keep myself entertained with different projects, guitar practice, &, etc…
I truly deserve Labor Day. I work a lot… (I love my work)

I am going to have a BBQ alone to celebrate my good year of working.
I hope I have more work. I hope I make more money.

I am just happy that I am physically able to work – being able to work is happiness.

God bless all hard-working people in the world.

I hope you guys would have a day off on Monday and take a long~~ nap like I am planning to.

 

I ate a hotdog and bought gas.
I spent over $100.00 total

Wind-breaker (jacket) is one I’ve been thinking about buying for 8 months. I had a wedding photography gig in January. It rained, and I was soaking wet. Since then, I’ve been looking for a decent-looking windbreaker. It’s not my style, but I needed one. I hope I never get to use it.

I’m still very busy… 🙁

Took this picture on August 25, 2010 – exactly 4 months before Christmas.
