So like I said, I am working from home today and between conference calls, I decide to take the big box of Shiela's Shiraz and get rid of it. It was 3/4 full (5 ltr box) so I did not want to sit there pouring it out of the spigot into the sink. I wanted it GONE and FAST. So I open it up and get the kitchen shears and cut a little slit in the foil bag type thing that holds the wine. Just a little slit and it will all pour out smoothly ....Um, HELLO? Mount Visuvious right in my kitchen! Freakin wine everywhere - on my counter on my bananas on my sponges on my floor in teh dog's bowl....EEEEEEK! If I wasn't so damned pround of myself for pouring the crap out, I would have been so pissed! So I sat there for a minute while the rest of the wine glug glug glugged down my drain and laughed my ass off. I cleaned it all up and un-wine-smelled my kitchen. I left the box and the exploded interior out for my two girls to see. When they came in the kitchen they said "what happened?" I said I poured all the wine out. They asked if it tasted bad, I said "no, it tasted TOO GOOD!" I told them that I think it is better if I don't drink and if I DO drink it will be AF wine or beer. My eldest said "good for you Mommy" and they both gave me big smiles. Like they knew. I kinda fessed up and I feel great about it. And all it took was one big Shiraz explosion! lol
