It's all fun and games until the cheese hits the fan.

It's all fun and games until the cheese hits the fan.


Literally.

I was not in the mood cook last night when the Spawn and I got back from the lake.

So, nachos it was!

Opening the jar of queso dip, I popped it into the microwave to heat up for a minute while i put together a plate of chips and pulled out the salsa, sour cream, and shredded cheese.

With my back turned to the microwave, I started dishing up the condiments and placing them on the counter when I heard an explosion from the microwave.

"Oh Shit! What was that??"

Spinning around, the microwave was still going but cheese was spilling over the side of the jar that was now half empty.

"Oh My Fucking God!!"

"Language Mom!"

The Spawn was instantly at the counter to surveil my calamity. She didn't even bother to hide her half smile or judgy eyes.

Little shit.

Popping open the microwave, I peered in to find a giant glop of cheese was now dropping down from the top of the microwave and nearly covering all the little air holes on the side.

How on earth does this happen?

Lid was off. Microwave directions followed to a T. I've literally done this A MILLION TIMES in the past....

What a fucking mess.

Needless to say, nachos had now lost their appeal......

Peanutbutter sandwiches it was!

She's such a little stinker anymore, these days. I know she'll grow out of it, but it's kind of sucking a little in the mean time.

It was a mess.... And to top it off, it's not like cheese just rinses out of a dish cloth. It gets all slimey and gross. Yikes!

    OMW I feel for you. Cheese is second to raw eggs as a mess to clean up. And peanut butter as a second choice- well meih for me . Hope your weekend gets better
It was a thick, gloppy mess, for sure. Thank God for Clorox spray cleaner.

I feel your cheesy pain! At least my explosive mess was butter....and much easier to clean out of the microwave.

    A good rule of thumb:
    -half the prescribed time for the microwave
    -double the prescribed dose of the medicine.
It might be a while before I warm anything up in there again... Yikes. I'm not a big microwave cooked to begin with.
