What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people!
Today, I have a hilarious (and slightly mouth-burning) story to share with you. You know how I’m always telling you not to let fear of the unknown keep you from experiencing something new? Well… let’s just say my sweetman and I really lived that lesson today.
We were at Nam Dae Mun and spotted some Asian noodles we hadn’t tried before. My sweetman, being the adventurous foodie he is, decided he wanted to try the hottest flavor they had. He was so confident—he didn’t even flinch when he picked the spiciest option on the shelf.
When we got home, he looked at me with a mischievous smile and said, “Babe, you try it first.”
And me, being me, I said, “Sure!” without hesitation.
Friends… the first kick of spice hit me like a playful punch to the mouth. 🥵 I instantly reached for my water. That should have been my warning sign right there.
Then it was his turn. He took a big forkful, chewed slowly… and then sprinted downstairs to get a glass of milk. 😂 He came back shaking his head, saying, “This should be illegal. You should have to sign a waiver before eating it.”
Of course, he handed me the rest of the bowl because he couldn’t handle another bite. And of course, I ate it—because despite the burn, it was so flavorful! But yes, I did make him bring me some milk, too.
It’s crazy how something can be so delicious and so dangerously spicy at the same time.
So here’s the takeaway: Don’t let the fear of something new scare you away from an amazing experience—even if it comes with a little heat. You never know, you might find a new favorite… or at least a good story to laugh about later.
