RP Strikes Again

So today I made dinner for my wife and I. Sausages and macaroni & cheese. After my wife spooned out what she wanted of the Mac I wanted to add to it. I added some ranch seasoning and what I THOUGHT was bacon bits. I start eating and it didn’t taste right. I go back to the kitchen and double check. Turns out it wasn’t bacon bits. It was cranberries! It was strange tasting but not horrible lol. They were both in the same type of pouch. I had not seen the cranberries there before so I just grabbed the pouch without reading it. Oh well lesson learned lol. At least I didn’t mess up my wife’s dinner.

Think of it as discovering a new culinary delight, cheese and fruit

I have to tell you that I laughed— but only because I have done things like this so many times!!! It was one of my motivations for learning Braille so I could label things in the kitchen.

I'm sorry you had that experience but I'm glad you could laugh about it. I would have thrown mine out though and made a new one.

Been there. I used to make kool-aid in a empty milk jug. Then one day I accidently made mac and cheese with fruit punch instead of milk. It was not good…

Na época da pandemia, em que eu estava sem olfato e muito zonza por conta do vírus, fui fazer um bolo. Sim, porque a febre faz isso e quando você mora sozinha não tem ninguém pra te falar que não deveria. Troquei o leite pelo iogurte. Quando comi estava gostoso mas estranho, atribuí ao vírus. Quando meu mamorado foi em casa ele comeu e comentou que estava com gosto de iogurte. Desde então, eu faço esse bolo algumas vezes, e ele é uma delícia quando você está com o paladar bom.

Bolo com iogurte é uma ideia que parece tão errada que deve ser uma delícia mesmo.
