Default Redeemable culinary goof(s) . . . . or not

Ok, I goofed today. I'd gone to the grocery store to get milk
($1.19/gallon!!) and a few other cold goodies and strawberries. After
unloading the groceries from the vehicle in the blistering sunlight and
putting the cold stuff in the fridge, I took a brief respite because I
felt a wee bit overcome with the stifling humidity and simmering summer
heat.

The short break evolved into an afternoon nap Right after my
impromptu nap, I discovered I'd neglected to put the 1#-packages of
bacon and breakfast sausage (tube for patties) in the fridge, too -
aargh :/ Thankfully, the bacon and sausage had only been without
refrigeration for about three hours or so.

So, this evening I mostly stood at the flaming, natural-gas stove
cooking the bacon and sausage patties to be used during the upcoming few
days. Cooking two-pounds of many-slices-of-meats definitely was not
what I intended for a Saturday evening's activities - heheh. The
sausage patties will make breakfast biscuits and snacks. The bacon has
countless uses, and I foresee a lettuce wedge salad with bleu-cheese
dressing and a bacon-burger in the works, among other many other
possible options.

Anyone else have culinary goof(s) to share, redeemable or otherwise <VBG>?!

P.S. While cooking a pound of bacon in a pan on the stove, I dare
anyone not to eat a slice or two! It's a dare I can't take - heheh!
