The veggie burritos are really good. We got the idea from Taco Time and figured out how to make
them ourselves. (They use whole wheat tortillas on theirs but we just used white.)
I thought we bought "light" sour cream, but on further examination, the container says "fat-free".
It still tastes pretty good, luckily. I didn't even notice.

Once upon a time, before we started having kids, we used to buy skim milk. But now our kids 
would never drink that. Besides, we use milk in our coffee/tea, and skim is no good for that. But I 
do like it. We should start buying more brown bread though. We do occasionally buy brown or rye
(I love rye toast!) but the kids aren't too crazy about it. Yeah, we cater to them too much, I know.

Survivor night tonight. I'll watch it on tape when I get home. As far as Olympic hockey is concerned,
now that Team Canada has been eliminated, I'll now be cheering for Team Finland. They've got a 
really good team and plus they've got Canucks Jarkko Ruutu and Sami Salo. Go Team Finland! :)
