You're right. Hysterical blindness. Happens to me, too. I don't
know what is up with that, how could I not see it sitting right there!

Works also when I order from Penzeys. Either I don't notice that
I'm completely out of (something I use all the time) and have to place
a second order within days of ordering, or I order something that I
already have 3 bags of sitting there.

Since I just ordered from them last night, I expect to find out what
I forgot, any minute now.
