If you live in a small apartment, you know every piece of furniture has to earn its spot. There’s no room for fluff and definitely no space for clunky furniture just because it looks nice. Which is why I’m seriously impressed by the Luke Sleeper Sofa from Coddle, a clever little couch that pulls triple duty in the most space-savvy way.
Where to Find the Coddle Luke Sleeper Sofa
Exclusively available at Costco for just $999, the Luke Sleeper Sofa is sleek and modern, but don’t let that fool you. The Luke is more than just a pretty face! As someone who’s spent too much time living with “chic” couches that are awkward, uncomfortable, or just plain ugly, this couch is a breath of fresh air. It’s the kind of piece that feels designed for how we actually live — whether you’re working from home, hosting overnight guests, or even binge-watching reality TV.
The Coddle Luke Sleeper Sofa Is So Multi-functional
This sofa is the Swiss Army knife of furniture, designed with real people (and real life) in mind. Need a guest bed, but don’t want to sacrifice your entire living room? This bad boy’s got a queen-size sleeper that pops up in seconds via a smooth trundle pull. Hosting movie night with snacks and blankets? The chaise hides a deep storage compartment perfect for pillows, throws, and even a board game stash. And because tiny apartments rarely have convenient outlets, this sofa includes a built-in power strip with USB-A, USB-C, and two regular outlets. So you can charge your phone, laptop, and speaker from it without ever having to unplug your floor lamp.
The Luke is definitely built to last, but that doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice comfortability, either. The sofa’s built on a solid hardwood frame for durability and is topped with memory foam, high-density foam, and pocket coils that makes lounging or sleeping feel downright luxe. Plus, it’s all wrapped up in a stain-resistant fabric. Two matching accent pillows complete the look — and yes, it actually is as chic as it is comfy.
What to Shop That’s Similar to the Coddle Luke Sleeper Sofa
No Costco nearby? Consider the Playday Gray 93” 2 Piece Left Arm Facing Pop-Up Sleeper Chaise Sectional from Bob’s Discount Store. It also has built-in power options, is even more affordable, and is just as multifunctional — featuring a pull-out bed and cupholders. Its clean lines and compact design also make it a go-to for small-space living, especially if you’re trying to maximize comfort without maxing out your budget. This model even comes in a few other colors than gray: navy and beige. If your tiny apartment is begging for a furniture upgrade that works overtime, the Luke Sofa might just be your new best friend. It’s a rare find that truly lives up to the hype.

In celebration of their 100th anniversary, Costco is is selling Disney-themed Pyrex bowls and lids that will turn your kitchen into the most magical place on earth.
The media brand has partnered with Pyrex to come up with storage containers featuring some of their most beloved characters, making the set the perfect gift for any Disney fan.

The eight-piece Pyrex set comes with two 6-cup glass bowls, two 3-cup bowls, and four lids in purple, blue, purple, and yellow. The glass features old school black-and-white versions of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and even Winnie the Pooh and Piglet. If you look closely, there are also silhouettes of various characters. For instance, you can see Mike Wazowski, Stitch, and Ariel.
Just like all other Pyrex products, the bowls are microwave, dishwasher, and freezer-safe, as well as stain and odor-resistant. A commenter, though, noted that it’s best not to include the lids in the dishwasher, as “the heat cycle will harden and crack them over time. Just a quick hand wash!”
Disney’s 100th anniversary Pyrex sets are available at Costco for $18. Better hurry because stocks are limited.
And if you prefer characters from Disney’s other brands, there are also Marvel- and Star Wars-inspired Pyrex sets. Over on Amazon, the Spider-Man set comes with two 4-cup round containers and two 3-cup rectangle containers, with the glass showcasing everyone’s friendly neighborhood web-slinger. As for the Star Wars set, it comes with two 4-cup round and two 3-cup rectangle containers, with the design featuring Darth Vader, Yoda, the Death Star, to name a few.
With these Disney-themed Pyrex bowls, everyone will look forward to having leftovers.

When throwing a dinner party, it’s easy to get swept up in the multicourse-ness of it all. And when it comes to dinner parties, the holiday season is arguably the most popular time of the year to host — and it’s all about the food.

If you happen to be one of those ethereal, sparkling hosting wizards, you probably already know that hosting is hard work (especially if you’re making it look easy!). When I was reading a hostess guide book from 1952, for example (there are so many!), I learned that to be a good hostess, everything has to be homemade, everything has to be perfect, and your dress has to have an a-line silhouette. Luckily today’s standards have changed: Wearing pants is now an option, and hosting doesn’t mean making everything from scratch. In fact, smart hosts know when to take clever shortcuts so they can spend quality time with their guests.
As every good host knows, you never know when or where inspiration will strike. For me it was in the aisles of Costco that I stumbled upon a clever shortcut — in the freezer, betwixt boxes of 72-count toaster waffles and giant six-pound sacks of Italian meatballs. Cuisine Adventures French Onion Soup immediately caught my attention, for two main reasons.
What’s So Great About Cuisine Adventures French Onion Soup?
First, French onion soup calls for a ton of onions. While onions aren’t expensive, there’s a lot of labor involved in halving, peeling, and slicing 10, 12, 50, or one billion onions (I don’t know how much soup you make). Second, a good French onion soup takes time: Letting broth, a bit of wine, some herbs, and all of those onions become friends in the pot can take at least a few hours. At only $10.99 for six portions, this Costco version is nearly cheaper (in some cases, literally cheaper!) than buying all the ingredients to make it yourself.
I don’t know about you, but I prefer hanging out with people over onions. So I imagine for Thanksgiving, or your birthday, or any celebration where you’re having people over, this frozen French onion soup would make the perfect hands-off first course. I was delighted to find that this soup came packaged in individual, vacuum-sealed cylindrical portions, perfect for placing in a bowl and microwaving, which is one of the preparation methods listed on the box.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the flavor of the soup — hearty and savory, with slight sweetness from the onions. Unsurprisingly, however, the croutons placed on top didn’t really get crispy in the microwave (perhaps they would if you prepared this in the oven), but that was nothing some supplementary toast couldn’t fix.

Earlier this year, I went to my local Costco to check out the new snack selection. There was a lot to choose from: crackers, clusters, crisps, and more (all for less than $10!). I always know that I’ll uncover good finds (both long-time favorites and new or new-to-me gems) during every trip. I had no idea, however, that this trip would be the trip that would introduce me to my new favorite frozen find. It was, though. I fell for this treat. Hard. In fact, if I had to recommend just one new thing for you to pick up at Costco, it would have to be this sweet little ice cream sandwich sandwich.
Mad Minis Vanilla Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches, $9.99 for 36
My favorite thing about this frozen snack isn’t its taste, convenience, or even the price — although it is a bargain at $10 for a box of 36 sandwiches. It’s what goes (or, in some cases, doesn’t go) into each sandwich that has me stocking these bright blue boxes in my freezer. The company, according to its site, sources the very best of ingredients, which includes milk, cream, cane sugar, wheat flour, cocoa, and more. There are no artificial flavors, colors, sweeteners, hydrogenated oils, trans fats, or food dyes. I’m a nutritionist, and all of that is extra important to me.
As far as flavor and texture go, those are spot-on too. The vanilla ice cream is rich and creamy and it balances the crispy, crunchy chocolatey cookies in just the right way. (I’ve found other cookies in ice cream sandwiches to be too mushy.) I also like that they truly are mini but still big enough to be satisfying on their own. That said, I do also like to pair them with other items to create a delightful mega-snack: I’ll add one on top of some Greek yogurt or pair it with some fresh fruit, for example. Basically, any way you bite it, they are the perfect little something to cap off any warm-weather meal.

The freezer section at Costco is legendary. It’s the first place I turn to stock up on frozen fruits and vegetables in the cold winter months. It’s also where I go to find crowd-pleasing appetizers and the best dinner shortcuts. Turns out, one of those dinner shortcuts has become such a hit in my household, it won over my picky daughter and my even pickier husband. Honestly, I never would have guessed it. Mostly because I didn’t even know what I was buying at the time (more on that below). That’s how good Costco’s frozen finds are! You can kind of just trust that whatever you’re buying is going to be good! Allow me to explain.
Tattooed Chef Organic Riced Cauliflower Stir-Fry, $9.39 for 48 ounces
I first discovered this massive bag during a rushed Costco run. I saw a picture of the enticing stir-fry from one of my favorite plant-based brands and tossed the bag into my cart … without actually reading the label. I got home, unpacked my latest haul, and planned to make this rice dish for dinner one night that week.
Because everything comes pre-cooked, I simply heated the contents of one of the bags with some warmed oil in a pan for about six minutes (there are four 12-ounce bags within the larger bag). I topped it with some leftover chicken strips from the night before, a drizzle of teriyaki sauce, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving. After the first bite, we all realized that we were not eating rice, but riced cauliflower instead! (I should have known!) Unfazed, we kept eating; the riced cauliflower was seasoned so well and prepared so nicely that we didn’t even miss the grain.
Made of only organic frozen vegetables, Tattooed Chef Organic Riced Cauliflower Stir-Fry has become a permanent staple in my freezer. It’s filling enough on its own, but it also makes for a delicious base for cooked tofu, steamed edamame, grilled chicken, poached eggs, or any other quick (or leftover) protein. It’s a meal that we all love — and I can make it less than 10 minutes. Maybe I should start blindly throwing things into my cart more often. Who knows what else I might find!
