We don’t use a lot of sugar at Casa Bob y Carlos … a wee bit
in the tea pitcher, and maybe some when Carlos bakes, but that’s about it. I
use Agave in my coffee each morning and we buy it at CostCo where you can get
two jars cheaper than at the grocers.
Last week, we’d made plans to hit CostCo on Saturday, but
then I ran out of Agave on Thursday and as the childish, er, child-like, one in
the house I pitched a hissy. I grabbed the empty bottle and shouted:
“There’s no Agave! There’s no Agave!”
I tapped the table with the empty bottle repeating myself,
and Carlos swiftly grabbed my hand and took the bottle:
“Stop acting like a child!” He set the bottle on the table and I could see his mind working, knowing that
it was still within my grasp, so he set it on the chair between us, and smiled.
Then I smiled. And lifted my foot and kicked the bottle onto
the floor again because I am childish, er, child-like, and fun! Clearly Carlos
had forgotten the Great Loaf of Bread Toss of 2019. |
