Spoiled Milk

Today was the first day of the new school and as usual for us, the first day of school always leads to some disaster or drama and this year was no different. The morning started out fine--both kids woke up, got dressed, and packed their backpacks for school. Ashu requested cereal and milk for breakfast and after finishing it, off she went to start her first day. Akshay and I decided to have chai together and we always warm up our milk before putting it in to the chai. I stick it in the microwave for a minute and when I pull the milk out, the milk has solidified into yogurt. The milk was spoiled and I did not realize it; I served spoiled milk to my child on the first day of school. I panicked and told the school to let me know if she complains about not feeling well or tummy pain. I waited for 5 hours and finally felt relief when I did not get the call. It turns out she was just fine and I never told her this story. Hopefully she won’t check this blog!
