My husband says I buy too much bread!

[tigereye]

I tell him, it's really cold out and I'm Irish. We seem to need to have a lot of bread around, genetic remembrance of famine and all that.

;) Plus the teen eats us out of house and home.



What food/foods do you and yours have to have in winter?

[AsahinaKimi]

1. I love bread..

Especially fresh baked, or bagels.. muffins, Corn Muffins! I have been told I have to stop eating so much, because its very fattening. Meh! So much stuff in the world we are told we can't eat because of this..or that!

Its simply not fair.. :P


Lately I have been eating alot of Sashimi. No rice.. at least fish is good for you..unless, of course you think about the mercury~ *cries*

[tigereye]

6. mmm, fish. I love fish.

always try to get the sustainable ones if I can.

[AsahinaKimi]

12. I love Sashimi

One time I went to this place, and got 3 orders of thirty pieces. I brought it home, and lived on it for a week! I had to put them in three plastic containers. They gave me lots of sliced ginger and Wasabi. I also have my own low salt Soy Sauce.

So any time I got hungry, I could have my own Sashimi dish. Unfortunately, I had to fight the cat to eat it! wahahahahaha!

2. I love bread...tortillas are a must have year round. nt

[Bunny]

3. We're Irish, and we're pretty big on bread here, too.

Orange juice is also popular. :hi: How are you doing, tigereye? I was in the city today, taking my daughter for a school exam. The streets are still pretty messy, I noticed. I am really tired of winter. x(

[tigereye]

4. at least you could actually see the pavement there today as I drove my son

back from school... it's been 10 days since that was true.

What exam? Mine had an Independent school entrance exam this past week. Crazy - worse than college applications when I was young.


:hi: You can't have too much bread. :rofl:

[Bunny]

8. It was an entrance exam for nursing school.

Next week we go back down and take another one. The long range forecast shows temps in the 50's by the end of next week. :woohoo:

[tigereye]

14. cool for her! OMG, though, think of all the water when it melts

:scared: My friends are all having leaks from the ice on the roofs and gutters...

[Spacemom]

5. There's no such thing as too much bread

Just extra bread that needs to be made into bread pudding! :)

[tigereye]

7. mmm, yes.

I'll tell him that! :D

[Skittles]

9. you want I should kick his ass, tigereye?

I'll whip him with a bread stick

[kentauros]

11. Better use a baguette.

It's bigger :D

[tigereye]

15. ha!

He's chuckling and so am I, Skittles!

[Arugula Latte]

27. Whoop his doughy ass!

:woohoo:

[tigereye]

29. aha!

:rofl:

[trof]

10. It'll freeze, but...

It's just kinda 'OK' when you thaw it.

[tigereye]

16. yeah, we eat so much of it, it should be gone soon...

[KittyWampus]

13. potatoes & chocolate

[tigereye]

17. hmm, tell me more- some Irish kind of mole'?

[KittyWampus]

20. not together silly, seperate. I like potatoes au gratin, twice baked potatoes, mashed,

rosemary/garlic roasted.

Chocolate- I like cookies, mousse, pie...

[tigereye]

21. well, you never know!

:D Chocolate is a must in winter. And you are right that potatoes in all forms are very good as well.


I am willing to bet there is some kind of combo out there, though.

[Quantess]

18. Hearty soups and stews.

Chili made from fake meat and frozen tomatoes that I picked in the summer.

[tigereye]

22. my husband is desperately wishing for a summer tomato

good thinking on your part!

[PeaceNikki]

19. Justs distract him with Rahm Emanuel's apology

:P

:hi:

[tigereye]

23. ah, that was last week!

:rofl: :hi: We love that- it's on our list of pick-me-ups along with Christopher Walken's Weapon of Choice video!

[femmocrat]

24. We have been buying sweets like crazy!

Nothing like cocoa and a cookie in the winter. :)

[workforced]

25. Carbs!!!

Winter vegetables are far better in a thick soup than bread alone. If in doubt: pottage!

[caitxrawks]

26. it would be cheaper

If you had a breadmaker or made it by hand :D Not saying you HAVE to by any means. But if you ever wanna give it a try, it's a lot of fun.

We have WAY too much milk and cereal. My husband must have cereal and coffee every morning, and we have a 14 month old, so we go through milk like it's going out of style. We also buy two boxes of cereal each at the store. We shop at Aldi though, so the boxes are smaller.

[tigereye]

30. ah, he does bake really good bread - made French bread for Christmas

scones and biscotti, but not all the time.

I have a teenager and he is eating me out of house and home. The milk just flies out the door.

[Forkboy]

28. No such thing. Damn near every meal needs bread with it.

:)

[tigereye]

31. that's right! Bread is all, damnit!

:D

[tigereye]

32. wow, the copycats are awful in here, today

poor mods.
