"At least the kitchen floor is clean,"

[ailbhe]

as radegund said when she smashed glass everywhere in her house. We've just been clearing the kitchen and dining room floor of tiny shards of broken vinegar-bottle, sprayed far and wide by a little domestic accident.

It looks lovely. Perhaps I should smash some glass every week or so just to make sure.

I really must remember to ask the Council for a smaller wheelie bin. Our recycling fills a lot faster than our landfill bin, and even that only needs to be emptied once every four weeks. It's lunacy to use our precious, limited front-of-house space for bins we don't need or want.

I obviously need a spillage here *eyes kitchen floor covered in muddy dog & cat paw prints*

Sounds like the time many, many years ago, when my mum tried making rice pudding in a pressure cooker (as per the recipe book which came with the beast, I might add), and we ended up with the cleanest kitchen ceiling you have ever seen.

Hopefully, not because it had to be torn down and rebuilt from scratch. :-)

Thankfully not.
Think more akin to "Old Faithful".

My brother was making caramel by boiling a jar of condensed milk in a pan one time and he let the pan boil dry. My mother was still finding odd lumps on her caramel coloured wooden kitchen doors *years* later!

I managed to drop a bottle of corn syrup in my mom's pantry.

That was the cleanest that room had been in the 60-odd years the building existed.
