So, I may or may not have murdered myself by making Indian food.
I decided to make a curry chicken last night, using a seasoning mix I had gotten from the local farmer's market. You brown the chicken, add the curry mix and then add a small amount of cream at the last minute.
Everything was going well. I had added my cream and sat it to the side of the stove. As I'm letting it simmer, I glance at the cream container.
Yep, it expired. In November.
Any normal person would've thrown out the curry chicken and just eaten the rest of the meal. I decided against that. I smelled the cream and it smelled fine. It had only been opened once (probably in November). I dumped it out and it wasn't lumpy. It wasn't green or anything. The curry chicken smelled fine and wasn't curdling. There were no alien life forms bubbling out of the pan.
I was good. And it was good. And I'm still alive.
MB hasn't gone near his plate. He refuses. I think he's still waiting to see if my stomach explodes. Which it hasn't.
Yeah. I've been a little rumbly today. So what?
