I love bread, but if I do serve bread with a meal it's the grain/starch of the meal with only rare exceptions. I'll pick up fresh pitas periodically, still warm when I get them, from the market down the street and serve meat and veggies with tzaziki, hummus, or another sauce to wrap up in it (especially when I pick up some of their lamb, mmm), or I'll serve it with curry if I don't make rice. Occasionally I'll serve bread as a filler if realize I didn't make enough food or I'm in a hurry. I'll eat bread with cheese, eggs, or nut/peanut butter with some fruit for breakfast fairly often, usually as I'm running out the door.
I don't typically make pasta with sauces per say. I usually sautee veggies and meat with garlic and onions and herbs and dress it with a bit of oil and finish it with cheese, or make a light sauce in a sautee pan and toss the pasta in it, but occasionally I'll actually simmer a red sauce in a pot. When I do, I sometimes make garlic bread to go along with it (maybe a couple times a year). DH says stew is made to eat with biscuits, so if I make stew he usually makes biscuits, though I prefer crusty whole wheat bread with mine. When I make my parents' classic hamburger soup (just ground beef, onion, carrot, celery, potatoes and peas all boiled together into a soup) it must be eaten with a slice of buttered bread.
Last spring I bought some wheat berries and a hand-crank grinder and got hooked on home made bread made with freshly ground flour. I use a combination of hard red a white wheat, half ground finely and half coarser and blend that with a bit of white bread flour. It bakes up sky high and has incredible flavor. Sadly I haven't been making it as often lately, so when I do I'm liable to come home from work to find out DH and the girls have polished off half a loaf or more in my absence and then he'll want to take some to work to boot!
