I take a lot of frozen meals to work.

They don’t usually taste too bad, and depending on the brand (and sodium…sigh), they’re relatively healthy. They’re quick to pack and relatively quick to prepare, especially after sitting in the fridge all morning long.

Because of that sitting, though, the directions on the package don’t work for me. When the package says to cook 3 minutes, I may only need to cook it 1-1/2. It’s a guessing game, and I’m an awful guesser.

So as I was studying this package of Swedish Meatballs for the suggested time and contemplating how to convert it into sorta-thawed-out time, I did a double-take on number 3:

Pull back film and stir macaroni & cheese.

(And not because of the inconsistency of the conjunction usage, either. 😉

What? Macaroni and cheese?

I actually turned the box over and made sure I was preparing to prepare what I thought I was preparing to prepare.

I was.

Hmm.
