I am way too excited about the fact that Costco is bringing back samples. I think it happens in June. The ridiculous thing is the samples are most often food I am usually quite familiar with. OH! An Oreo?? I wonder what these taste like. I’ll just grab one for me and one for my hubby, who also has never tasted an Oreo before (gets around the corner and eats both). I love that hubby doesn’t try to fake it and just grabs the taquito fresh out of the toaster oven and cut with scissors. He even shamelessly goes back for more and boldly laughs as he pops them in his mouth. Who is this man? Such confidence. I’m just going to keep faking it because that is where I feel most comfortable. I know the sample person knows I am lying, but I am sure they will forgive me. Right?
