I Never Thought It Could Happen

Trigger warning!  Trigger Warning!  Trigger warning!

 

It happened!  I NEVER in my wildest dreams would have ever thought it could have happened here in my kitchen.  But it did.  I RAN OUT OF GARLIC!!!!!!  At first I didn’t think much of it because I though I had more downstairs.  But when I went downstairs to get it, panic set in.  There wasn’t any!  Fortunately, I had just barely enough to use for what I was cooking at the time, but just barely.

We had to make an “emergency” trip to Costco to get some more.  This has never happened in my house before.  I stocked up to ensure it never happens again.  I should be OK for awhile, although I am still a bit traumatized from this whole ordeal.  I think I just need to open one of the garlic jars and take in a few large whiffs, and then I will be OK.  Phew!!!!!  That was a close one; too close for comfort.  🙂

  2. That was close!!! 😊
    I always have onions on hand, as well as garlic…can’t cook much of anything without one of them—or both.

      1. It can, but as far as sprouting, it happens more often for me when I’ve kept it out. I never have trouble with it in the fridge because I go through it fairly quickly. Thanks for your input though.
