Toast

I was having some toast this morning with some peanut butter (not sure with or without salmonella) and some honey. I was thinking why is this so much better as toast as opposed to just bread.  And I thought, I don’t know, it just is.

 It was then I was glad that am not a scientist. Otherwise I would have to wonder why taking a piece of bread and removing moisture  and recooking part of it should taste better than not. I would think it can’t be a warmth comforty thing sine half the time one eats toast the toast in no overly warm by the time you get to eat it.

Being a scientist must be hard. Debunking or over analyzing the simple pleasures in life. The inability to let things just be as they are would be no fun. I will not join the no fun league. No I won’t.

Speaking of fun or funny. I was at the Verizon store today to have some contacts moved form one phone to another. While I was waiting I was looking at some of the latest gizmos available. I saw a Blackberry Storm. ooooh. I was reading through the features.  I thought one of them said Sheep Mode and I was thinking, exactly. Of course it said SleepMode as some battery saving feature, but I am pretty sure SheepMode is much more appropriate. And of course sheep are always funny.

Speaking of sheep, if you are into campy horror movies with sheep in them you should check out Black Sheep.  http://www.blacksheep-themovie.com/

    Hum, the wonderful world of toast. If it’s Murphy’s law toast always lands butter side down, and cats always land feet down…what happens if you put buttered toast on the back of a falling cat? Nonsense I say.

    But I do know why toast is better then bread. Not because I’m a chemist but because a nutritionist explained it to me. When you toast the bread some magical chemical reaction happens (or elves get in the toaster and do something) and it makes the bread sweeter then if it were untoasted. Thus those of us with a sweet tooth think toasted is better. Question solved! Or not :)

    Well, I have a huge sweet tooth so that explains that well enough for me.

    Funny thing is that I love chocolate but the idea of putting Nutella Chocolate spread on toast just doesn’t work for me.

    Hmmm….

Just get a Hershey chocolate bar, make a piece of toast and whalaa instant sandwich…humm now where did I get my sweet tooth from? On a side note I must know how the chocolate candy canes were??? Magically delicious? No wait that’s Lucky Charms…
