Today was a pretty good day! A few WTF moments of course like every other day you have as a parent. Paddy slept through again which is actually life changing and Edi-Rae woke at 5:30 which is also life changing. My mum and step dad are still here which was also life changing because Paddy is obsessed with my step dad (Mark) so it made the morning SOOO much easier. However Mark has now started to get body aches and cold sweats which is really not good.
I decided to cook a few recipes out of my fav cookbook so went to the shops and I got some pork from the butcher to add to the fried rice. I thought it looked weird when I started to cook it and I found the smell odd but I thought maybe pork just smelled weird. Then I tried some and it tasted weird… so I got Nick to try some. Then he was like “that’s fucked”. So I got mum and she took one smell and said it was 100% off and Nick and I are both going to be sick now that we have eaten it. You know if Mum says it’s off its off because she really lives on the edge when it comes to use by dates. We had a neighbour who worked for master foods once who gave us sauces that were past the used by dates and I remember her keeping them and its a core memory that will stick with me forever. I did have to race to the toilet 4 hours later so hopefully that’s all that happens and we wake up happy and healthy like the pork never even happened.
