We were having some Indian food last night, but did not have the naan bread we though was on hand, so I went to the closest store to find some. We usually by frozen garlic naan at Trader Joe's, so I looked in the freezer section first but found no naan.
After wandering a bit I asked an employee and she directed me to the "island" where we always buy tortillas. There, I found not only two brands and three flavors of naan and many varieties of tortillas but several other flatbreads and even that great lavosh cracker-like bread. I had no idea that my locally owned neighborhood market had so many varieties of bread beyond the usual large aisle of white, wheat, multi-grain, multi-multi grain, hemp bread, oat bread
and sandwich rolls galore.
Can you tell I am enthusiastic about bread? I love it and it's even better if I get to slice it myself!

I know that a lot of people have gluten problems. It would be so hard for me to give up my bread.

@JamesHxstatic I don't have gluten problems and I'm not diabetic. My body just doesn't need all of the carbs that are in bread. I don't buy it or keep it in the house because, if I do, I'll want toast with my morning eggs.

I'm really not, but I do like good bread. I really like Dave's Killer Bread. Expensive, but worth it.

I can understand that guy; he needs a load of carbs. Whole wheat is best!

@RubyHawk It never seems to make me gain weight either. Anne hates that I can eat that much bread and stay pretty slim.

@JamesHxstatic That's true he can soak in the carbs. Whole wheat is better but he doesn't like it.

Yes, please pass me some of that bread! 
I know the Trader Joe's bread well . . . I mostly get all my breads from there! There should be another cart thingie with fresh bread that comes in those paper bags. I will say though I don't care for the gluten free varieties (or at least I haven't found one that I'm please with). Otherwise, bring it on!

@JamesHxstatic It is so easy to do James, no doubt you could do it yourself, I dont even need yeast. It uses flour, baking powder, butter, and ice cold water to make the dough. You can add anything in the flour that you want such as sunflower seeds, ground flax and so on to your own taste.
Mix the dry ingredients first, then add the butter in to make it crumbly, then add the ice cold water to make a nice dough.
Butter a baking dish, throw the dough in there and bake at 425 for 30 minutes..nice golden crust on it, and eat.

@JamesHxstatic my son is the bread maker . Not much change with my parents. We still have good and bad days. My mama is ailing faster then my daddy. It is an unbearable pain to watch this disease take them from me.

Do you make your own? By the way, how are your parents? You could do an update.

Oh yes, that is very good. My last loaf was a whole wheat sourdough. I love those rustic breads and like to slice them myself.
