This is why I do the grocery shopping

While I have been faking sick this past week Rob has been incredibly wonderful to me. He has fulfilled all of my ridiculous requests without any complaints. Seeing as he has been so great, I could just overlook this one little thing, but I find it way too funny to keep to myself. He has a good sense of humor, so I am sure that he can appreciate my amusement at this.

My stomach has been a little sensitive lately so I have been eating really soft and bland foods. A few days ago when Rob asked if I needed him to pick me up anything at the grocery store I asked for some more cottage cheese since I was out. He did come home with 2 large containers of cottage cheese, but they were of the full fat version...I only like fat free cottage cheese. Anything of the non-fat variety is too thick and creamy for me and I dislike it greatly. We always shop at the same store and I always purchase the same brand of dairy (milk, cottage cheese, sour cream, etc.) which has all the same color packaging - dark blue. When I brought this to Rob's attention he told me that he didn't pay any attention to what kind it was, he just grabbed some cottage cheese. Oh well I thought, knowing that I wouldn't eat any of it. Maybe we will have some company over this week and I can feed it to them. Since I am such an extraordinary hostess, I know that cottage cheese is at the top of the list of what people like to be served when visiting someone else home. :)

The next day he came home with a grocery bag that had only two items in it...2 large containers of cottage cheese. It was so sweet of him to make a special stop just to get me some cottage cheese! When I took them out of the bag I burst out laughing! There were 2 large containers of low fat cottage cheese. Still not non-fat, but better. You have to love the guy for trying, right?!? He didn't understand why I was laughing. When I told him what was so funny he suggested that I mix some water in with it. Because that makes sense, right? There is some more cottage cheese that I won't be eating. The next day I ventured out myself to pick up my own dark blue container of fat free cottage cheese, and it tastes great! Now our fridge contains a huge stockpile of various types of cottage cheese.

So if anyone plans on visiting our home within the next week or so, be prepared to be served massive amounts of cottage cheese! I will even garnish it with something fancy to spiff it up, but you have been forewarned...cottage cheese it what you will be getting. Rob won't touch the stuff and I just hate to waste it all...Bon appetite! :)

Thanks for the cottage cheese Rob...love you!!!
