Why does salt and baking soda look so similar?

Last night I had the itch to cook. Potato soup sounded perfect. However, I've never made it. Thinking....this can't be that hard, throw in a bunch of potatoes, a few veggies, add milk and butter and we're good to go. Well, of all things to mess up I added baking soda instead of salt. There are 4 clear containers in the kitchen that all contain white substances. So when grabbing what I thought was salt and tossing it in, I instead decided to add alka seltzer to the potatoes. Perfect!

Try explaining why the soup sucks.....in Spanish. And then, try watching everyone's faces while they attempt to swallow.

I love this place!

Good thing the brownies I made before were amazing.
