I figured it was time for a non-baby post (although I'm sure most of you that read this blog really only care about Dylan... :). Today I was reflecting on the items I picked up during my quick trip to the grocery store on Friday. I only went to grab a few necessities to get us through the weekend, but upon returning home, my bag contained the following items (among other things):
1 loaf of wheat bread
1 8-pack of tortillas (soft taco sized)
1 6-pack of pita bread
1 6-pack of ciabatta rolls (who knew the Wal-Mart bakery could produce something so delicious??)
1 6-pack of English muffins
Needless to say, we like our bread in MANY different forms! You may wonder how it's possible that two people could consume that many carbs before they all went moldy. Well, here's the damage by Tuesday morning:
Wheat bread: Half a loaf was used for peanut butter toast most mornings and French toast on Valentine's day. The other half was used at church on Sunday (Shane's in charge of the Teachers so we always bring the back-up bread)
Tortillas: These were gone by Sunday afternoon due to two meals of bean and cheese quesadillas (2 tortillas per quesadilla x 2 people x 2 meals = 8 tortillas)
Pita bread: At least four of these were eaten by Monday afternoon with roasted red pepper hummus from Trader Joe's (mmmm....). The rest were covered in mold by Tuesday afternoon
Ciabatta rolls: 2 were used for cold sandwiches, 2 were used for french dip sandwiches, and 2 were used to make the most delicious garlic bread ever...all gone by Tuesday morning
English muffins: Although these are usually quite popular in our house (toasted with butter and honey is a great snack any time of the day or night), only 2 were eaten this weekend. I think the other bread-like choices less common to our house won out.
All in all, I think it's safe to say we enjoy our carbs...in many different forms!
