When The Brain Is A Little Behind The Times

I just got back from doing some grocery shopping in Tesco and thought I'd share a funny moment. I bought some eggs and as always, checked the sell by and use by dates before selecting a box. The use by date was Jan 31st but for some reason my brain could only think 31st = December, so I mentioned to the assistant who happened to be filling the shelves right next to me "did you know these eggs are out of date" only for her to point out that it was January. Thankfully the penny dropped quickly and we were both able to laugh at my expense......and now you can too.

What can you say? Everyone has DOH! moments from time to time.
