the incredible disappearing orange roughy
May. 16th, 2004 01:41 pmD. and I just spent half an hour turning the refrigerator and my car upside down trying to find the fish I was going to use to try out a ceviche recipe.
It was the most expensive item on the grocery reciept, so of course it has vanished at just the moment I was planning to start the marinade :P
The grocery did charge me for it so it must have gone missing somewhere between the checkout and the car. The only thing I can be certain of is that if it did make it into the house, it is certainly no good for cooking after 24 hours in the open somewhere. Also (semi) comforted by the fact that if by some miracle it made it inside we'll find it by scent in short order (eww!) :/
I'm going to replace it but that's really annoying - I thought I was going crazy! "I know I brought it into the house...." Seems to happen a lot more lately. Is this what they call a "senior moment" (or at least a "no longer young and sharp as a tack" moment?)
