GONE BANANAS!!!

Yesterday, I went shopping at Wegman's...our first real foray into shopping there since we almost always shop at Whole Foods. As is usually the case, I went with a list from Abbie. On this list was an assortment of fruits and veggies and the amount in parentheses after them. As I went through the list, I got avocados (2), mangoes (2), cauliflower (2), and bananas (5) among other items.

I got home, and hauled all of it into the house. Now, if you know me, you know I'm pretty lazy during the day, and when I have to haul in groceries, I try to do it in one trip. This trip was pretty heavy. Lots of groceries. But I did it.

We started to unload it - in the kitchen of course - and I started pulling out the bananas. Abbie looks at me, then the bananas, and asks me how many bananas I bought. I said I bought 5.

"Five bananas, not five bunches" she says.

Yup, I bought five bunches of bananas when all Abbie wanted was five freaking bananas. Looks like we're eating bananas, banana chips, banana shakes, banana ice cream, banana bread, peanut butter and banana, and anything else with bananas, because I bought enough to feed the National Zoo's monkey house.

Five bananas, indeed. Hmph.
