What the couscous?

So last weekend we come home from shopping at Whole Foods, and as the hubs is helping me put away the groceries (he is very helpful in this area even though I sometimes find purchases in random places :), he calls out "sweetie, where should I put the quinona?", and he says it like it rhymes with Winona.  We had a good laugh over this when I explained that it is actually pronounced "KEEN-wah".  Ha! 
 
Joking aside, he has been a very good sport in accepting new whole grains into his diet from my cooking, including such tasties as quinoa, whole wheat pasta, bulgur, brown rice, whole wheat flour and/or rolled oats in my baked breads and cookies.  So let's hear it for fiber, people.  It's official, brown is better :).  Just so you know...
