Subtitle: “See you in the emergency room!”
\n
\nSo we stopped by my mom’s place this morning on the way to daycare, as she had a half of a rhubarb pie she was trying to get rid of. She’d baked it yesterday to share with some folks she was hosting at her house. I was happy to take it from her. She also had a small bag (maybe 3\/4 lb?) of cooked shrimp — unshelled — and a little container of seafood sauce. I took that, too. I planned to share the pie with my colleagues at work, and the shrimp I would have for lunch.<\/p>\n
True to form, I forgot about the shrimp and cocktail sauce in the 20 minutes it took us to get from our house to daycare and then to work. I remembered the pie, but the shrimp had slipped my mind so completely that I replied, “I dunno” when Leah and I were grabbing stuff from the car in the parking lot and she inquired about the contents of the white plastic bag in the back seat.<\/p>\n
Not until I got home today at lunch did I remember what that bag held. I reached back from the driver’s seat and touched the Zip-Loc bag holding the shrimp. “Hmm,” I thought. “Still cool. Let’s eat!” And so I did, seafood sauce and all. I mean, you can’t<\/em> waste shrimp, right? Who’s with me?<\/p>\n I feel fine so far. The shrimp and sauce tasted just fine, but I suppose there could’ve been some kind of nasty bacterial action going on in that bag that I couldn’t sense, in which case I guess I could be sleeping on the bathroom floor this evening. You have <\/em>to know I’m going to keep you posted on this one….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Subtitle: “See you in the emergency room!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1269","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-food-drink"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9oLlO-kt","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1269","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1269"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1269\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1269"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1269"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nicheplayer.net\/avablog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1269"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
