Dear Creature:

When deciding to not bring your lunch because you know that there are leftovers in the work fridge, it may be worthwhile to consider exactly *when* the leftovers were introduced to the work fridge. Further, it may be of some use to you to know that the recommended timeline for throwing out a piece of cooked, refrigerated chicken is after 3-4 days languishing in the fridge. There is no need for us to think about how many days the chicken was actually in the fridge, now is there?

Sincerely,
You

So, that was sort of a failure, but, on the bright side, I went down to the shop and I know have a sekrit snack stash that does not consist wholly of jellybeans, but rather includes some things I can actually eat. Hoo-rah. Also, I hear I'm adorable. That's always nice to hear.

Expiration dates? On food? Oh, tosh!

As long as the food hasn't grown fuzzy bits or acquired an odor that curls nose hair, it must still be good.

Or not.

For managing leftover expirations, I use a teenager, she is quite effective at either:

1. consuming everything, hence no out-of-date leftovers


2. saying "how long has this been here?!" (with much nose wrinkling) and tossing it out

Adorable? Yeah, sometimes. Mostly, when I think of you, I think of sexy, beautiful, pettable, smart, and really cool.

All of the above... and that goes for you both.

Ah, they beat me to it. Yes you are adorable, beautiful, talented, sexy, smart, and a bunch of other wonderful things.

Am glad you were able to find tasty lunch food that wasn't totally off your diet.
