Blueberries in the Microwave

Sometimes it's hard to think and do at the same time. Sometimes it's really not hard at all, and you're just absentminded.

I was taking out some blueberries to eat and I was going to wash them. At the same time, I was thinking about adapting the muffin tin cherry pie recipe I recently learned for blueberries. I was also thinking about how I need to buy gluten free flour if I wanted to bake some for my gluten free, lactose intolerant, vegetarian boss (yikes she can't eat anything!). She's so kind to me, and I want to do something nice for her too.

But anyway, as I was thinking about the oven and baking in general, I accidentally walked over to the microwave and put the bowl of blueberries inside. I preceded to set the microwave time to 20 seconds, and then stopped before I pressed the start button. I remember thinking "how long should blueberries be microwaved again? I think 20 seconds might be too much, it's more like...oh dammit, why did I put the blueberries in the microwave?"

It's moments like these that you start to realize you're getting old...no I'm only kidding, really, I probably just had a long day.

Or as my friends would say "Go home Ariel, you're drunk."
