Happy Monday
Posted under Vapour ·I hope you are all having a great Monday, so far.
Mine started splendidly. I woke up feeling chirpily happy, and went to make my regular breakfast of rice bubbles topped with sliced banana, with a latte.
Those who know me, know I love my espresso machine. Those who know me, also know I am a bit (ok, so I’m being kind to myself!) of an airhead.
So. I had poured the espresso shot and put the mug back on the cup warmer while I frothed the milk. When I was ready to pour the milk, I picked up the mug from the cup warmer and, as is my habit because I keep the mugs upside down on the mug warmer, flipped it.
Oops.
Coffee all over the floor and the cupboards. It was soooooooo much fun cleaning that up, I can assure you. Still have to scrub the grout between the tiles when I get home. Yay.
It was a fantabulous start to the day but let’s look on the bright side — it’s bound to get better now!

Do you have cats? I learnt after an incident involving TWO full bottles of red wine that the only way to clean up that kind of mess is to throw a thickish layer of (clean) kitty litter over the whole lot, wait a few minutes, then vacuum it all up again. Works a treat, I can assure you :-)

Ah… great idea, David! I do always have kitty litter at hand as I cat-sit a lot.
2 bottles of red wine… what a nightmare! Thanks for the tip. :-)
