I've worked at Costco for 20 years. Here are 8 of the best things I'm seeing on shelves right now.
I've worked at Costco for 20 years and love searching the aisles for new items each month. This month, Costco is getting a head start on fall with Halloween costumes and cute accent rugs. I'm excited to try the Bakery Street Dubai-style chocolate cakes. I've been a Costco employee for 20 years and am always looking for interesting new items to add to my cart. This August, the warehouse is stocking its shelves with fall-ready finds, yummy treats, and beauty essentials. Here are eight of the best things I'm seeing at Costco this month. Tame stubborn flyaways with the Nexxus Slick Stick. Summer is in full swing, which means frizzy hair and flyaways can be an issue. This month, Costco is carrying two-packs of the Nexxus Slick Stick — a hair wax that claims to target flyaways and frizz without stickiness or residue. The packaging says it provides 72-hour humidity protection and 48-hour frizz control, which is perfect for creating smooth and polished looks. I love that the sticks are compact, so they'd fit nicely into a purse. Get a head start on Halloween prep with Marvel costumes. It may only be August, but Costco is making it easy to get a head start on finding the perfect Halloween costume. At my store, I saw a variety of Marvel Spider-Verse options for characters like Spider-Man, Miles Morales, and Spider-Gwen. Enjoy your favorite coffee at home with the Starbucks by Nespresso capsules. If you're looking to get your morning coffee fix without leaving the house, I recommend checking out the Starbucks by Nespresso capsules. Each box contains 68 pods in varieties like espresso roast, Pike Place, Café Verona, and blonde double espresso. However, it's important to note that the capsules can only be used in Nespresso Vertuo machines. The Bakery Street Dubai-style chocolate cakes look delicious. The Dubai chocolate trend isn't showing any signs of slowing down, and this month, I spotted mini cakes from Bakery Street that are inspired by the craze. Each package comes with four mini treats layered with dark chocolate cake, pistachio cream, crispy kataifi, milk chocolate ganache, and pistachio pieces. These festive accent rugs are the perfect way to prepare for fall. The Staheekum women's slip-on shoes are perfect for indoor or outdoor use. The Staheekum women's clogs are perfect for lounging around the house or attending casual gatherings. I love that these suede slip-ons have comfortable padding and a stylish buckle accent. The Apple AirPods Pro 2 bundle caught my eye. The Pure Protein snack pack makes getting your protein in more fun. The Pure Protein snack pack — which includes cheese crackers and two varieties of popped chips — caught my eye. These satisfying grab‑and‑go options include at least 10 grams of protein per serving and are each 150 calories or less.

15 Movies to Watch With Your Family to Celebrate 'Summerween'
Fact checked by Sarah Scott If Christmas in July exists, who says we have to wait until October to celebrate Halloween? While you might not be able to go trick-or-treating dressed in adorable matching costumes, you can buy your favorite candy, order an iced pumpkin spiced latte, and have a "Summerween" movie marathon for you and your kids. While we recommend saving the big thrills for October, there are tons of age-appropriate "Summerween" movies that are fun and not too scary. So, light your favorite fall-scented candle, blast the AC so it sorta feels like autumn, and enjoy our picks for family-friendly "Summerween" movies you can watch right now. Pre-K 'Summerween' Movies 'It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown' (1966) A Halloween classic, this animated film follows Charlie Brown and friends as they prepare to go trick-or-treating. Meanwhile, Linus has chosen to skip the festivities and wait in a pumpkin patch for the mythical Great Pumpkin. Snoopy also has a cute side-story in this film where he acts as a World War I flying ace. 'Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie' (2005) Winnie the Pooh and the rest of the crew in the 100 Acre Woods want to make Lumpy's first Halloween extra special. From adorable trick-or-treating adventures to not-so-spooky ghost stories, this pre-school friendly film is super wholesome (and has tons of good costume ideas for October!). 'Hotel Transylvania' (2012) Although not technically a Halloween film, Hotel Transylvania features tons of our favorite supernatural myths (Dracula, Frankenstein, etc;) in a way that's fun and approachable for kids to enjoy. In this animated film, Dracula's daughter falls in love with a human, despite his best attempts to scare him away from the monsters-only hotel. If your kid loves this movie, there are three other films they can watch on repeat until Real Halloween rolls around. Elementary Summerween Movies 'Nightmare Before Christmas' (1993) A classic film to watch during Halloween and Christmas (or Summerween and Christmas in July), this Tim Burton animated film follows Jack Skellington as he tries to bring the magic of Christmas to Halloween Town. Naturally, things go a bit awry for the Pumpkin King. 'Scooby-Doo! And the Witch's Ghost' (1999) Centered around Autumn Fest in a small town, Scooby and the gang come across an unexpected haunting and must solve the mystery before it ruins the celebration for everyone. While the movie doesn't focus on Halloween specifically (although there are plenty of Scooby-Doo! movies that do), it perfectly captures the fall atmosphere and includes some of our favorite Scooby-Doo! characters, The Hex Girls. 'Double Double Toil And Trouble' (1993) Ask any '90s kid, and they're sure to tell you that this Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen film is a must-watch during Halloween. The story follows the Farmer twins who realize their family might lose their house and decide to use their aunt's supernatural powers to try and solve their parents' money problems, only to have to defeat the forces of evil instead. 'The Little Vampire' (2000) Part comedy, part child-appropriate horror, this early aughts film documents the friendship of human child Tony and vampire kid Rudolph. Together, the duo must save Rudolph's family from a vampire hunter who is trying to track them down. 'Casper' (1995) When an afterlife therapist and his daughter, Kat, move into a haunted house in Maine, Casper the friendly ghost forms a friendship with Kat. Together, the two must navigate the differences in their relationship while warding off not-so-friendly spirits that also share the house. 'Monster House' (2006) In this animated horror, three friends decide to enter a haunted house to defeat the evil lurking inside. The house, which does not like children, especially not trick-or-treaters, does everything in its power to deter the kids before Halloween night. 'Spooky Buddies' (2011) One of the many spin-offs of the Air Bud and Air Buddies franchises, this Halloween film follows five puppies on a Halloween adventure to stop the evil warlock and save the town from inevitable doom. The plot sounds a lot scarier than it actually is. Tweens and Teens 'Summerween' Movies 'Halloweentown' (1998) When the three kids learn they're from a family of witches, the siblings decide to leave the human world and enter Halloweentown, where supernatural beings can live a 'normal' life. The first of several films, the story primarily focuses on Marnie, the eldest daughter, who must help her grandmother fight evil threatening to destroy Halloweentown once and for all. 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' (1997) While we're certain the 2025 version of this movie is just as good, nothing will beat the classic horror film starring Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Jr., Jennifer Love Hewitt, and more '90s stars. The slasher flick follows a group of teens as they try to survive a hook-wielding killer with a grudge against them. 'Hubie Halloween' (2020) Noah Schnapp, Peyton List, and Adam Sandler star in this Halloween comedy set in Salem, Massachusetts. The plot follows Halloween Helper, Hubie, who is often bullied for his eccentricities. Despite it all, he discovers a true crime and must try to solve it to save the town from any more future horrors. 'The Addams Family' (1991) While there are many renditions of The Addams Family, including several that are age-appropriate for younger kids, "Summerween" wouldn't be the same without a rewatch of the 1991 version starring Anjelica Huston, Christina Ricci, Raul Julia, and more. The film follows the story of the creepy, kooky family as an imposter infiltrates their home in an effort to swindle the Addams fortune. 'Haunted Mansion' (2023) A new take on the famed Disney World ride, this live-action film follows a woman and her son who hire a team of ghost experts to help rid her new house of the evil that resides within it. The film stars Danny DeVito, Jared Leto, Owen Wilson, Rosario Dawson, and more A-list actors. Read the original article on Parents Solve the daily Crossword

Rice Cakes Can Do Anything
is a senior reporter at covering restaurant trends, home cooking advice, and all the food you can't escape on your TikTok FYP. Previously, she worked for Bon Appétit and VICE's Munchies. In 2023, the Los Angeles izakaya Budonoki, then just a few weeks old, decided to 'dress up' as a different kind of restaurant for Halloween. For one night, the Japanese restaurant transformed into an Italian trattoria with Negroni slushes, arancini, and checkered tablecloths. Someone on staff offered the pun 'Budo-gnocchi,' recalls co-owner Eric Bedroussian. 'We were like, wait, that's actually really good.' Nobody in the kitchen had expertise in making pasta and no one had much interest in making gnocchi from scratch, so the team reached for something more convenient: Korean rice cakes, also known as tteok. Like gnocchi, rice cakes offer a bouncy chew, especially the long cylindrical rice cakes that the restaurant uses. (Tteok can also be found in flatter rounds that are sliced on the diagonal.) The team steamed the rice cakes to soften them, then seared them to create a crisp outer layer. Sauteed mushrooms, a dashi-butter pan sauce, and Parmigiano-Reggiano rounded out the pasta-like vibe. The Budo-gnocchi was 'so incredibly well-received,' Bedroussian says, that it had to become a part of the permanent menu. It hit the notes the restaurant was going for with every other dish. 'It's comforting and it fills you up if you've been drinking a lot,' he says. Once a happy accident, Budo-gnocchi has since become a signature dish at the restaurant, which was named an Eater Best New Restaurant in 2024. The dish has since evolved into a loose template, changing with the whims of the kitchen. The restaurant might upgrade it by finishing with black truffle shavings, or bringing in corn and tomatoes in the summer. 'It can be whatever we want it to be,' Bedroussian says. As Korean cuisine gains popularity across the United States, rice cakes — a popular street food — have established themselves as a promising ingredient for chefs cooking both inside and outside Korean cuisine. While you'll find them cast as other types of noodles (Sunny Lee's baked ziti-like rice cakes at New York City's Sunn's, for example, or chef Beverly Kim's tteokbokki pad Thai at Chicago's Parachute HiFi), chefs especially like the way their playful, chewy texture makes them a natural substitute for gnocchi. This idea isn't entirely novel; in a 2006 New York Times review of New York's Momofuku Ssäm Bar, Pete Wells recommended the rice cakes topped with Sichuan pork ragu and whipped tofu as 'dead ringers for gnocchi.' Chefs in Korea have been working on a similar culinary track for a little while now too. Traditionally, restaurants and street stalls generally use tteok to make tteokbokki, in which the rice cakes are simmered in sauce that's slightly sweet, spicy, and fiery red from gochujang. In recent years, they've been riffing with rosé tteokbokki, which adds cream to the typical tteokbokki base, inspired by both the Italian rosé sauce and Korean-style carbonara. 'Italian food in general has become more popular in Korea,' says bar owner and forthcoming cookbook author Irene Yoo. Given that Korean-style carbonara is made with cream and served with ham or peas, breaking from Italian tradition, rosé tteokbokki is 'an interpretation of another interpretation,' she says. The rice cakes at Sunn's are topped with mozzarella cheese. Jutharat Pinyodoonyachet/Eater NY Across the U.S., rice cakes have recently transcended pasta dishes altogether. In New York City alone, there's the culinary boundary-blurring rice cake fundido at Haenyeo; the nacho-like chopped cheese rice cakes at Nowon; rice cakes bulking up galbi bourguignon alongside potatoes at Sinsa; and blanketed with mornay sauce until they resemble gratin at Gurume. At Yoo's Orion Bar in Brooklyn, rice cakes also turn sweet, morphing into churros: deep-fried until puffy and crispy on the outside, then tossed in cinnamon sugar and served with cream cheese-makgeolli dip. 'I grew up in LA, so I definitely had a lot of churros growing up,' Yoo says. While testing deep-fried rice cakes, 'I immediately thought of that as a taste memory.' For chef Nick Wong of Houston's new 'modern Asian American diner,' Agnes and Sherman, a dish of rice cakes with beef ragu filled the slot for a 'comforting, saucy starch' on the menu, since there's no pasta. It also represents a 'kind of 'if you know, you know' situation,' he says. Wong spent years cooking at Ssäm Bar, so the dish is in part a reference to the ragu rice cakes there, though with pork in place of beef because 'it's Texas,' Wong says, and to account for Houston's Muslim population. More specific to Houston, the dish has another reference: The Korean braised goat and dumplings, also made with rice cakes, was the signature dish at Chris Shepherd's now-closed Underbelly; the dish was beloved for the way it evoked the foods of many different cultures. With a sauce featuring Korean gochujang and doenjang, West African uda pepper, and Mexican chile de árbol, Wong's rendition is emblematic of Houston, where, he says, 'it's hard to tell where one thing ends and another thing begins.' When it comes to his rice cake dish, Houstonians 'just get it,' he says. With all its iterations, Budo-gnocchi is a 'chameleon' too, Bedroussian says. For a recent collab dinner with Indian sports bar Pijja Palace — an Eater Best New Restaurant that's known for its malai rigatoni (pasta with a creamy tomato masala) — the two restaurants served malai Budo-gnocchi. It's a little bit of everything: Italian, Indian, Korean, all through the lens of an LA riff on a Japanese izakaya. Between all those influences, rice cakes are in the middle, bridging the gap.
