I once accidentally grabbed the tablespoon instead of the teaspoon when making bread first thing in the morning, it did not rise at all and so would not bake through as it should, did not have time to give it the slow long bake it would require so I baked as normal and gave the half cooked salty loaf to a friend who was incapable of constructive criticism or vocalizing dislike.

First, buy larger bell pepper; second, get those bitch ass tomatoes out, they aren't making it any prettier; third, cut the bell peppers slimmer so they will actually fill up; fourth, trim the extra whites and test your seasonings on them while you eat the extra before you serve the rest. Lastly, a good bell pepper's flavors will overpower the taste of eggs by 100x so it won't taste good even if you make it look pretty. Make a quiche instead.

There is another trick:
crack shell while egg is still warm (even hot), and immediately put it under cold water.
From cold temperature egg white shrinks and sucks a bit of water under shell, this let you easily peel eggs.

it might have just been the blackbeans releasing gas, though usually you only get a smell if you keep them in a closed container and the gas builds up, and then you get a big wiff of it when you open it. It's either that or the ground beef was bad and you didn't notice before throwing it in.

I work at a bar, and I took home a bunch of lemon and lime juice that was going to be thrown away at the end of the night. I thought, oh, this will make a great base for a marinade. I didn't water it down at all, and let it marinade with some spices for like a day.

After i cooked it, ALL i could taste was lemon juice. It was so absolutely pungent, even my dog wouldn't touch it.

White people. They don't eat avacado like Hispanics or other ethnicities. So they don't know where the seed is and think it cuts like an orange or pear. They probably were wondering why the center wouldn't cut all the way through and stabbed themselves when it did.
