expiration dates

Last night Aaron and I were in the kitchen making Thai beef noodle soup, and we noticed that the bag of bean sprouts we had purchased that afternoon was two days past it's expiration date. Of course we were miffed that we had not checked the date before buying it, and I said, "Well... I guess that teaches us to be more careful about checking to make sure things are not past their due date when we buy them!" He heartily agreed.

....about two minutes later, I stopped and looked at Aaron and said, "Wow.... did you hear what I just said? I called the expiration date a due date!!.... I think I've been pregnant too long!!" He laughed and said, "You know what's even funnier? It sounded so normal that I didn't even notice!"
