That's even worse than the time my mom switched around the salt and sugar containers on my dad, and he went for a bowl of Cheerios with heaping spoonfuls of "sugar" on top .....
You can buy granulated lemon juice (also lime and orange) in twee little packets to avoid surprise packaging reuse. It's sold under the brand name Real Lemon and is usually stocked next to the teas; sometimes it's in the baking aisle with the sweeteners.
I buy the stuff online in bulk because they're excellent for making an aspirin-free equivalent of Alka-Seltzer we refer to as "buffer". (Packet of lemon and a pinch of baking soda in a small glass of water. It's handy for neutralizing excess stomach acid when you're pukey. Doubly so when your spouse has GERD.)
bwahahaha, woke you up, didn't it? ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat did you do to Mary and Annie yesterday?
ReplyDeleteLook at it this way--it wasn't ground glass.
Wait until you find out there was ex-lax in the tea bag.....
ReplyDeleteIsn't it nice that your office staff respects you so much??? What's your address so I can send them some flowers? :-)

ReplyDeleteluckily lemon juice and tabasco sauce are different colors, so hopefully you looked into your tea before drinking.
ReplyDeleteNow if it was it was sugar/salt mixup, that would have been different.
And, tomorrow morning, YOUR ass will be fiery.

ReplyDeleteI think your staff needs a raise for making your readers laugh :)
