For those of you who read this blog regularly, you may wonder from time to time if there may be some embellishment, seeing as my life is something out of a bad redneck sitcom.
Believe it or not, it’s true. The whole reason I started blogging is because crazy stuff happens to me all the time.
Case in point:
I came home from work yesterday and got ready to prepare dinner because I’m all Martha Stewart in a trashy wife beater, cut off Levi’s, and flip-flop sort of way.
I made the executive decision to serve chili in the main dining room.
So, to prepare this gourmet feast, I must defrost the hamburger from the freezer. When I opened the freezer door I discovered this…
Wonder Nut (A.K.A. Ella Bella Bo Bella) has yet to understand the basic principles of science that a liquid (in this case, a can of Diet Coke) freezes into a solid at 32 degrees and thus exploded and made a huge mess in the inside of my freezer.
However, there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
A bright, luminous beacon of light to make all my worries dissipate into happy thoughts…
because I had prepared for this moment….
and had put this in the freezer two nights before….
HALLELUIAH!!!! HALLELUIAH!!!! HALLELUIAH!!!!

Sorry about the mess but is that a drink? Of the alcoholic nature? I am sure you need one after seeing that fiasco.

OMG! You poor thing.
I’m sure that slushy, margarita-like beverage was well-deserved.

We’ve had the same Coke explosions here, and I know what it’s like to clean that mess up. I hope the margarita helped!

Naturally, the alcohol content prevented your grown-up slushie from freezing completely solid. You might want to whip up some more if Farmchick decides she needs a break from de-skunking everybody over at her place! (Hell, she may want to skip the slushie and go straight to the bottle. Be kind to her.)

AiredaleGirl,
SFM is always kind to me with the bottle. And never fear, I now have enough peroxide and baking soda at my house to de-skunk the entire town, if need be.

Exploded diet coke? No fun.
Frozen alcoholic yumminiess? Tons-o-fun!
