rscYesterday evening, I decided that we should have bloody marys for our evening cocktail. So I went to the refrigerator and got out a lime, and then reached in to get the next two cans of V-8.
Except... there weren't any. We had apparently run out.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jwg assured me that this was not his fault, the implication being that it must be mine (correct on both counts), and we had gin and tonic instead. I suggested that V-8 be put on the shopping list, and he did so (or so he said).
Fast-forward to this morning; we're just sitting down to breakfast, and he tells me that eggs should be added to the list. I take down the spiral notebook in which we write our shopping lists, and find that there is one item on it. I turn tojwg and say "Why does it say 'blood' here?"

As I'm posting from work, no drink for a while but perhaps I'll have a Manhattan when I get home.
