All around the country and back again



This yeast has been all over the country. Traveling with my husband in his big truck. It was quite the mystery too.

I was going to make bread several weeks ago. I always keep the yeast in a container like this in the freezer. It's also the same type containers I put food in for my husband to take with him on the road when he leaves. And I usually pack everything for him , well, because he's a man. But that particular time, he was leaving like very early morning and I just told him where things were.

Anyway, when I went to make bread, I could not find that yeast. Anywhere. I cleaned out the freezer looking for it. It was no where to be seen.

Meanwhile, my husband had called wanting to know what was in that square container with the blue lid. I had no idea. And couldn't figure it out.

It all came together when I had to go pick him up from his truck when he came home. He was handing me stuff from his truck and gave me this container. He said that's what he's been carrying all over the country, not knowing what it was, all this time. And it was my yeast!

I was So happy to have it back. And to know what happened to it. Now I am making bread! And the house smells so good again.

  1. I read this one to Hubby, because, well, he's a man. We are both still chuckling.

  2. Betty Ann, my husband gets lost in the kitchen. And it's not big. He stands at the fridge, looking in, trying to find the milk, on the bottom shelf. Sometimes it's pushed to the back. He can't bend over. And he'll be here sometimes and I'll leave for a few hours, and when I get back, he wants me to fix him something to eat. And he's wanting to retire in a few months! Me thinks I shall be looking for a "real" job then. I could write a whole book about that man.
