\<Warning=“Bordering on not boring”\>  
Yep. From Costco. But I didn’t buy them while I was there. They weren’t in stock, so I came home and ordered them online.

Since then, I found out that I might get a really good deal on stuff at another store when I buy my kitchen appliances. Apparently, if you go through a contractor friend and buy high end oven, fridge, dish washer, and three to six TVs, you can get big discounts. Since Coscto has a 90 day return policy, I’m just going to keep the TVs in the original boxes until I decide if I’m keeping them.

I had “Cajun style” sausage for dinner.
