Those evil geniuses at Costco moved around a bunch of aisles around. Which meant that I had to walk all around the store to find the things I wanted. Which meant that, even though I took a list -- mind you, a short list -- I still walked out of there $200 poorer than when I went in. Damn you, Costco!

I didn't go crazy or anything; it was all stuff that we needed. My only indulgence was a compost thing. We tried to do compost a couple of years ago just by making a small pen out of chicken wire. It wasn't a great success; it attracted wasps and the dogs got under the wire and treated it like their personal snack bar. But I hate sending mountains of vegetable scrap to the landfill. So I picked up the compost container at Costco. It's just a bin, doesn't turn the compost or anything. But still I'm excited about setting it up. Does anyone know if shredded office paper can be composted? I bet not; I bet the bleach from the paper is toxic.

Rearranging stores when I have mastered the old arrangement is a Bad Thing.

let everyone know how you like it ! I'm thinking of getting two of them; they're pretty well designed and a great price.
