and then it disappears!
Either the store stops carrying it, or the manufacturer stops making it.
That happened to me recently.
I have a loooooong morning at school, so I need a good breakfast. Last year, I discovered a breakfast cereal that I loved. Bakery on Main Ancient Grains Amaranth Multigrain and Quinoa Multigrain.
Then they disappeared from the grocery store. 😥
Then Amazon said Out of Stock - not sure when it will be restocked. 😥
Then they weren't available on the company website. 😥
I was so sad. 😥😥😥😥😥😥
Their oatmeal multigrain cereal is good, but I can't eat oatmeal every day. It just doesn't fill me for the morning.
I was forced to find an alternative.
I made my own quinoa in advance, then heated it in the microwave each morning and added in an assortment of berries, hemp seeds or sunflower seeds.
| The berries taste much better than they look! |
| I may have buried the quinoa in sunflower seeds. |
| Tri color quinoa |
The pictures don't really show it well (and they loaded backwards).
Amazon said the cereal was back in stock, so I ordered it, but they sent Blueberry Scone Oatmeal instead.
I was sad again. 😥
Amazon refunded the money. Happier, but not happy because I still didn't have my cereal.
Today, as I was preparing this post, I found the cereals in stock on their website again.
I am cautiously optimistic.
But in the meantime, I learned that even though I've never been a fan of quinoa, I actually really like the tricolor quinoa as a hot breakfast cereal with nuts and fruit added.
And now a funny Halloween side note:
These hay bales were set out for Autumn decorations, but with all the rain and heat and sun, they started to sprout!
