Everybody has days like this.

Baking soda. Lots of baking soda. Costco-sized baking soda.

I was supposed to drop my car off at the mechanic today, but when I described to him the broken jug of milk the night before and how I thought I’d gotten it all till I opened the door again in the morning… Baking soda, trying that… (And it did help a lot, but not enough yet.)

“Tomorrow,” he told me, hoping hard, I’m sure; today, though, mmm, not so much.

And then the fridge decided to throw a house-warming party.

I think I need to go knit.

(Ed. to add, and then I decided to be helpful and try again with the hairdryer on the freezer coils, most of which happened while I was at knit night. Did you know the back of a hairdryer could suck your hair into it? I did not. I know now. And yes, there were a fair number of hairs that after everybody’s best efforts for quite some time could only be cut off.)

Oh and wasn’t the “aroma” of burning hair as “pleasant” as the sour milk?!!!

I did know that the back of a hairdryer could suck hair in. I found out the same way you did…!

Enzymatic cleaner that you use for pet accidents will help with the milk. Enzymes will eat it up. Naughty hair dryer!

Oh. Eww and ouch. I do so sympathize. Been there and done similar. Once tried to curl my hair around a skinny round brush. And blow dry it. Not a smart combo. And then there was the time while working on a copier, I got a bit too close to a cooling fan. It yanked a dime-sized spot of hair faster than I could move away! Hurt so bad I thought I was scalped. I do hope the hair dryer trim wasn’t too bad. And that the fridge is back to cooling.
