Tales From a Marriage:
We got a new pressure cooker and took it for a test run last night. Dh was excited and nervous about using a new piece of equipment. I picked the recipe, Chicken Curry. My DH, the cook, did all the work. When the top came off and he added the last ingredients,I took a taste. "It's wonderful, but doesn't taste very curry-ish." I went to get more curry powder and he said, huffily, "No, not that one-- BEHIND that one." I held up the clearly marked jar in my hand marked "Curry Powder." He picked up the jar behind it marked cayenne and said "Uh oh." He realized he'd added the wrong spice. Since he's color-blind, he didn't notice that the spice he was putting in was red instead of dark yellow. I added a lot of curry powder and it was very good--a rather peppery curry.
After we finished, he said "It was interesting using the pressure cooker. I really learned something." I nodded, "Yeah, always read the label." He threw a pillow at me.
