That reminds me of the time I was redacting
the recipe for Aqras Mukallala which called
for sesame oil. I didn't have any on hand, so
I went to the store and bought some. I made
up the recipe and took it to the potluck. When
I received complements on having such a spicey
sweet bread, I had to look at my ingredients
and discovered that I had purchased sesame oil
with pepper in it, instead of plain sesame oil.

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for
they shall never cease to be amused.
