Beware bosses bearing gifts!

Back in the mid-1980s I had a boss who knew that I liked to spice up soups with Tabasco sauce. One day he gave me a new bottle of Dave’s Insanity.

Back in the mid-1980s I had a boss who knew that I liked to spice up soups with Tabasco sauce. One day he gave me a new bottle of Dave’s Insanity.
Shortly thereafter, I was making a lentil soup and decided to set a couple of cups aside, ~
1986
then added to that two-cup portion a drop – just ONE teeny tiny .25mg drop – and did I regret it!
Had to ditch that portion of soup and took the bottle to the Hazardous Waste disposal center to prevent my ever-curious infant daughters from accidentally getting a taste from just touching the bottle.
