The Silly Thing I Did Today

Some time ago a good friend taught me the beauty of jicima sprinkled with chili powder.

Yum.

Today, the caf had jicima....but no chili powder.

So....

Being the genius that I am, I opted to bathe the whole plate in Tabasco.

Note: Tabasco ≠ Chili powder.

[It would also be helpful to point out that I am mildly allergic to chili oil. A little doesn't hurt, but it does get REALLY spicy REALLY fast.]

So with my mouth in flames, my throat constricting, and my eyes watering, I did the only logical thing: I started chugging milk.

It wasn't until the third glass that I remembered the unfortunate truth:

I'm lactose intolerant.

and once again, I display my genius. I'm afraid tonight is going to be one giant stomachache.
