Yes, I know I already posted something today, but something happened that I would like to share.

Many times I have told myself to not send my husband to the store to go shopping for food; but I made an exception this evening because it was only for the basics. That's simple, right? Some fruit, vegetables, milk and bread. I did ask for some frozen cauliflower and broccoli so I could make some broccoli cheddar soup tomorrow (since soup weather is my fave and I absolutely loooooooove soup). ANYWAYS... Mike called me from the store at least 7 times, yep, no exaggeration there... 7 times (or more). He was calling to ask several questions about what to buy. One question he asked was if I would like him to buy some bread bowls. Now, who wouldn't want bread bowls... yum!

So, after several phone calls and several minutes later my sweet hubby came home with all the food he bought. Of course, among the veggies are potato chips, corn chips and cinnamon bears. And we just had to have that summer sausage and the fancy sharp cheese to go with it as well. When he told me he spent $100 I could hardly believe it! Now that I think about it though, some of those items are expensive! Lots more than just fresh produce ;).

Okay... so on with the story. I was digressing. Anyway, he was so excited to show me the "bread bowls". He was all smiles as he opened the grocery bag. I couldn't believe my eyes! Mike had bought two loaves of sourdough bread. Have you ever seen a loaf of sourdough bread? If that was a bread bowl, that would be one ginormous bread bowl! I lovingly explained that they were, in fact, two full loaves of bread and not bread bowls. I'm not complaining however because I love sourdough bread. I just explained I wouldn't be eating it out of the "bread bowl", I would slice it up for the kids and me to enjoy!

I just thought he was so sweet and thoughtful and adorable! I love him so much!

I love sending Mike to the store. I never know what he will come home with. Maybe I'll go up and enjoy some of those cinnamon bears!
