Okay, almost everyone I know is losing their minds over the pecan pie I shared on Christmas. I got it at Costco- it's not cheap at 16,990, but it's big and wonderful. Very Happy

Oh, and for anyone who needs to know, YES, there are plenty of chopped onions available in the dining area, but you'd better hurry if you want any. I saw a BIG line of ajummas lined up with Costco plates and foil. Something tells me they're going to eat a lot of onions. Wink

Why are the giving away chopped onions? What did they chop them for? Why didn't they slice them? Ooooh, I'm gonna cry... so many questions.

Somebody brought a Costco pecan pie at my Christmas get together and I can attest it was fantastic.

Pecan pies cost only 8k or so back in November, 2004. How much are the Key Lime, Pumpkin, and the Apple Pies cost at this time?

I am eating Costco pecan pie as we speak. It is good. I bought some for Christmas. I couldn't get pumpkin pie, though. There were plenty of pecan and apple pies.

Didn't you find the pecan pie too sweet?

To die for?

I only thought it cost an arm and a leg.

I thought it was good, but the pecans were a little overcooked.

I went in there to get the approx. 8.000 Won cookies they usually have for sale, but there weren't any. Instead they were selling an overpriced 23.000 Won tray of X-mas cookies. No thank you!

Chopped onions are only good with lots of Ketsup and Moostard! Wink

I usually see Koreans with plateloads of onions either plain or with mustard or ketchup. I wonder if that is their meal for the day. It reminds me of low-class people that can afford food but chose not to buy it.
