Last week whilst home alone
I made some lunch, and then rooted through the cupboards looking for dessert of any sort. There was nothing. No cakes, buns, ice-cream. Not even any biscuits. 'Arse' I thought. Then I hit upon a brainwave. I dug out a cookbook checked what we had in the cupboards and found that I had the ingredients to make a lemon meringue pie. So I did. I did intend to just eat a slice and save the rest for the family, but it was rather yummy so I polished off the lot - about 12" across and a good few inches high. It was a somewhat generous pie.

Then set about washing up all the pots so the only evidence was that I was stuffed to the gills with lemony goodness, so stuffed that I actually had a bit of a sweat on. I was at that level of fullness where you make an involuntary groaning noise when you move.

But did you get away with it?

I did indeed
Probably because nobody in our house feels the need to audit the number of lemons we have in the cupboard.

Heh
That would never get past my wife.
"Ah, I see you used a tablespoon of flour and 75ml of milk today"
"Eh??"

I suspect your wife has OCD

Good grief, yes.
Most definitely.

Actually it's known as CDO these days
...because the letters are then in alphabetical order...

in desperation, I once tried popcorn with balsamic vinegar and sugar
anything rather have to go off to the shops.

It was foul.

Still ate it all

You could've skipped the balsamic
and just added sugar (and maybe some cinnamon)... but I guess hindsight is 20/20.

actually, I put the sugar on first
it was all just falling off. So the balsamic was to make the sugar stick, which worked, but it did make its presence known.

We really did have fuck all in the cupboards that day.

Ah well...
Lesson learned, I suppose. Thanks for taking one for the team, that we may learn from your actions :P
