Well actually, the stupid thing I did yesterday, but I discovered it today so it goes on today's post.
I was trying to make proper Italian soup you see. White bean and Rosemary. The problem was that the corner store did not have canned white beans. This forced me to be a real human being and soak them myself overnight. I didn't have any idea how long one should soak beans, so I looked it up on the internet. No harm, no foul.
In the process, however, I also found this little tidbit: The water that you soaked your beans in will be full of nutrients. Put it on your plants, they'll love it. Great, fantabulous, wonderful I think and straight away pour all the leftover juice on all my house plants.
Here's what they don't tell you. A day later, the water has gone off and your entire house will SMELL LIKE GARBAGE. And I can't quite think of any way to make it go away save throwing the plants out which I refuse to do. So I suppose we'll just have to suffer through stinkland until the smell wears itself out. Bleah.
