"Hey, Amanda, what happened to the two tubes of toothpaste that used to be in the bathroom?"
"Oh. I threw them away. They were empty."
"NO THEY WEREN’T! There was still lots of paste left in those tubes!"
"Whatever, Steve. I was sick and tired of squeezing and squeezing and squeezing and barely getting anything out."
There is a silence. Followed by the sound of garbage being rustled through. Followed by an even longer silence.

"What are you doing?" I ask him.
"Nothing."
That’s never a good answer, so I step into the kitchen and see that Steve has unearthed the two limp toothpaste tubes from the garbage can. To do so he had to dig through a POOPY DIAPER, rotten vegetables and did I mention the POOPY DIAPER?! He was willing to stick his hands in rancid waste to find the discarded toothpaste.
Then he did this to prove just how much toothpaste I had wasted:
Thanks for the visual, Steve!
After seeing all that I had thrown out I realized the err of my ways and decided to fix my husband a tasty lunch when he came in for a break after toiling in the orchard:
Waste not, want not.

Hahaha!
I can’t believe Steve did that. That’s hilarious.
But I am not surprised at all that you decided to make him a sandwhich out of it.
Was he impressed that you now also wasted a piece of bread?
Oh man, you guys are too funny!!
I wouldn’t even be surprised if he ate that sick toothpaste bread just to prove a point. Your husband is funny. Almost as funny as you.
Amanda,
That story was awesome! Brad and i were laughing pretty hard. It sounds like us as well. Thanks for the good laugh!
You crack me up!
hahaha…Steve reminds me of my mom…she cuts the tubs in half just so she can scrape it all out…i just could’nt be bothered with it…thanks for the laugh…i like the the sandwich..yummy..lol
You guys BOTH crack me up…oh, to be a fly on your wall :)
That is too funny! I can just see Steve eating that yummy sandwich just to fill his hollow leg! I was thinking of having you guys over for dinner one night soon – I’m thinking of serving a nice roast with a crudite of tooth paste on the side with just a hint of garlic!
Give Ave a kiss from her Nana Sue.
Nobody tell Steve that the bath tissue is 2-ply or he’ll seperate it to get double the paper.
Now I know why I jump from Angellas blog to yours.You are hilarious.
What did your hubby say about the sandwich? hers hoping he didnt eat it, at least it would be a great smelling bowel movement..lol.
You two are well matched! Love it.
What a weird funny couple you make :)
Oh my gosh – thank you for the laugh. That is hilarious!!! But what I want to know is, did he eat it?? ha!
