A few days ago, we made red beans and rice in the crock pot. When I came home, I noticed that the bag of bread and the bag of potatoes were right next to the crock pot and their bags were warm and steamed up from being so near the beans. Ugh. I moved both away from the crock pot, putting the potatoes on a different counter and putting the bread on top of the refrigerator.
The next day, I decided to have toast for breakfast, but the bread was not on the refrigerator, nor was it anywhere on the counter, so I asked James where it was.
"It's in the freezer."
"Why is it in the freezer?" I asked him.
"You put it there."
"No, I didn't."
"Yes you did. When I opened the freezer it fell out, so I put it back."
I started laughing pretty hard when I realized what had happened. I must have put the bread too close to the edge, so when he opened the freezer, the bread fell off the top of the refrigerator, but for some reason he thought that the not-cold-at-all bread must have fallen out from inside the freezer and didn't question at all why it would be in there.
At the grocery store, I have occasionally been known to sneak Eclairs or gourmet cheese into the basket while James isn't looking. Normally, he will notice these things while we were checking out or when we are unloading groceries at home. I do this only to be funny, because James really doesn't care if we get this stuff.
Yesterday, while we were moving newly purchased groceries from our cart to the back of the car, James picked up a cylinder of gooey cinnamon rolls out of a bag (something we have NEVER purchased before), and coyly exclaimed, "Oh, I wonder how this got here?" while smiling at me. I fully thought that James must have taken his own chance to sneak something, so I said, "Yeah, I wonder how that got in there?" Then, because it seemed so unlike him, I asked if he had put it in the basket. "No, you didn't put it in the basket?" Neither of us had put it in the basket, but we each thought that the other had! We looked at the receipt, and upon seeing it not listed there, James took it back inside to return it. I think we both wish we would've kept it, though. Cinnamon rolls sure sounds yummy.
