My year end accounts turned up today. This inspired me to sort out my expenses for the month, given that there's unlikely to be any change in them over the next week. I discovered that I hadn't claimed back the cost of the conference pass for ffconf earlier this month when I paid for it earlier in the year, which gave a nice little boost to the amount the company owed meComment

Anybody know the score with reheating pies? I fancy pie and chips with gravy for dinner, but I don't know whether it's safe to reheat the pie, or if I should have it cold
Order of events was:
- Made pie filling (beef casserole);
- Allowed to cool and put in the fridge overnight;
- Made the pies with the cold casserole;
- Baked the pies, meaning the casserole has been reheated once, to at least 80° as I recollect, probably hotter as I left them in a while longer after taking the temperature;
- Cooled the pies (except the one I ate);
- Pies in the fridge since then.
So that means the beef casserole will be getting a second reheating, which apparently is a Bad Thing. I'm tempted to do it anyway, as hot pie > cold pie. But will it kill me?Comment

But I would google it first to be sure!

Then there's the small number of bacteria who are able to withstand the heat due to genetic advantage. They survive, and next time flourish because their competition has been killed off, producing even more heat-resistant bacteria. Reheating gets those new ones going too, and in no time you have enough of them to cause illness, or alternatively to produce lots of toxins.
So it's all Darwin's fault, or somethingComment
