Where are the grits? 😂
My husband walked all the way through this Costco store looking for me to come and get me to help him find the grits. I don’t work at Costco so now we both have to walk all around the store of finding grits so I stopped somebody to ask and it was just a simple. They don’t sell grits .

Some meals don’t just feed you… they calm you down. Making shrimp & grits tonight felt like slowing my brain down one stir at a time. Creamy grits, seasoned shrimp, warm buttery flavors; the kind of meal that makes home feel softer after a long day. Cooking helps me reconnect with myself
