So, I come home, and in the trash -
Yes I look in the trash, and I'm sure many normal people do that, to make sure the recyclables are in the recycling bin, and the trash trash in the trash bin; because it is my little two pennies worth of saving the planet and I should be allowed to do that.
- so I look in the trash, and I see,
A can of Reddi Whip - that's whipped cream from a nozzle.
I bought it for the big boy's birthday brownie a few days ago.
And so in staged horror I exclaimed,
"Sweetie! What happened to the Reddi Whip??!" - I shot daggers at the hubs caught off-guard.
"Uhh, it's gone!" answered the sweetie from the other side of the apartment, backing up against the wall.
I picked the can out of the trash.
"How can it be gone, sweetie?? I just bought it!" Me shaking the bottle with unreasonable abuse, not wanting to understand him.
"It can't be gone! Did you finish it??" says I again adamantly.
"It's gone!" says the hubs indignantly.
Sound of an empty can being shaken. Stubborn stubborn.
Finally:
"It's gone, sweetie. IT MAL-FUNC-TIONED, and I had to empty it ALL down the sink!" says he, eyes glazed over.
I stopped in situ and looked up in disbelief.
And then I could not help but laugh.
Lame, but so adorable ;)
