pimento cheese

ok, so yesterday i made pimento cheese....a concoction i no longer make on a daily basis....to take to a super bowl gathering as a side for chili. My version is cream cheese-based, as opposed to mayo-based.....and has a bit of tang from garlic and hot sauce.....and minced onion.....and i had this stuff all made, the mixing bowl washed, and everything put away when it seemed something was missing.....but i put it in the fridge to chill...and it was not until hours later that it dawned on me....that i had actually forgotten to add the pimentos.....i laughed aloud, despite being home alone.....i have a scattered history of such faux pas....in a cooking class i once put a chicken casserole in the oven to bake minus the actual chicken...and it was not until a student pointed it out that i quickly added the chicken and attempted to re-stir a dish that had a crumb topping...ouch!.....yesterday's pimento cheese was made from memory...i do know that the original recipe is in this house somewhere.....and when i find it i will post it......
