Don't cry over spoiled milk...

I uncovered (literally) a treasure on the counter today. A full half gallon of chocolate milk. No it was not fresh from the refrigerated section of the grocery store. It was still where I left it after I got home from the preschool birthday party. I'm not sure how that happened, but it is really painful to pour $2.39 worth of quality chocolate milk down the drain (please don't tell my boys). It was the good kind of chocolate milk, too...full fat. Funny thing is, I actually went out of my way after preschool yesterday to put it in the refrigerator at my church while I took the boys to swimming lessons. I didn't want it to spoil in the hot car. How then did I leave it to spoil on my own kitchen counter less than a foot away from the refrigerator? Things that make you go hmmm...
