Another trip to Rambam, and a problem with bugs

Today, we went to David's appointment with his HIV doctor at Rambam Medical Center, in Haifa.

On the way back, we stopped at the Lev HaMifratz mall for lunch. We had our favorite toasted sandwiches there, tz'hubah (which means "yellow", referring to the cheese, which, strangely enough, is more white than yellow!), served with tomato, lettuce, and black olives on the side.

After that, we stopped at the Mega supermarket in Karmiel. We were running low on the flavored Quaker Oats packets, which David eats nearly every morning, and our local supermarket hasn't had them since before Pesach. We also bought some Quaker Oat Squares there, which our local market actually does have, but we got them while we were there anyway, since I'm on the last box. I don't eat them every day, but I like them from time to time.

It was hot and muggy in Haifa today (since it's right by the sea), but it was pleasant in Tsfat today. Now that it's dark out, it's even a bit chilly!

This afternoon, we had to clean out the cupboard where we keep our flour. I had discovered bugs in my bread, and we were pretty sure that that had come from there. Sure enough, they were in an opened bag of barley, a ziplocked bag of Barley flour, and an open, unsealed bag of rye flour. Of course, we threw all of those things out, checked everything else, cleaned the cupboard, put a few bay leaves in there, and put everything away again. It was annoying, but at least we found and solved the problem.
