Did it Expire?

Did It Expire? One day I realized that I never checked my condiments. How long were they good? Did they have an expiration date on them.? In particular I was reaching for the Worcestershire Sauce bottle.  You see I never use it.  So why do I have it?  My husband uses it. And he takes it out when he wants to use it.  So I don’t even remember what he uses it on, but it’s rare.

Some of you might be working from home remotely. And some of…
