Tea Time?

My day was teetering somewhere between craptastic and shitacular. Short on narcotics and low on wine, I decided to seek comfort with a civilized cup of tea.

I went to the pantry and oh, what did I find...

Just the thing to calm my weak and frazzled nerves. I thought I was in luck... that is, until I took a sip. This stuff was AWFUL and didn't do a thing to prevent me from running out of the house screaming and wailing like a mad woman...

Oh, well here's the problem. Apparently, this tea expired in "2A3R".

What the...!

True story for you along the same lines! About 2 years ago I made Velveeta Shells and cheese for lunch the only people to eat it were me and my daughter we were both violently ill by 9pm that night. I thought for sure we had some sort of virus but when the boys had no issues and we were on day 2 I dug through the garbage to find the box the expiration was 2 years earlier!!!! I am not he expiration date Nazi!

Things that make you go hmmmmm...... I have become a little sceptical about the tranquil effects of herbs since Miss 1 got more hyperactive on the Brauer's "Calming" mixture!

That's really quite funny. I have the hardest time with dates lately. I usually cannot read what they stamped. Hope it was good.
