Hard To Believe

I was baking some things to take over to my parents' for Christmas and I used up the last of my (larger sized) vanilla bottle.  

And I paused as it happened because I pretty clearly remember just having bought a new (larger sized) vanilla bottle not that long ago.  So I stopped and looked for it where it should be.  New bottle wasn't there.  I looked all through the cupboard and sort of generally around the kitchen area but nope, no new bottle of vanilla.

Which made me have to ask myself... did I really go through that whole bottle of vanilla that I swear I *just* bought a week or two ago?

And, well, the answer is probably yes?

I mean, I'm not stingy with vanilla and see its suggested usage in a recipe as a mere starting point (I'm one of those "it's ok to over pour vanilla" believers in my own stuff) but did I really bake that much over the month of December?  Maybe?

Either I did, or there's some random bottle of vanilla sitting unopened somewhere random and I won't find it until I no longer want to find it.

I bought more vanilla by the way but I'm still scratching my head while wondering if I really did go through a whole bottle of it in a short amount of time.  I dunno man!
