I grabbed a Halloween cup with a built-in silly straw from the clean-dishes strainer today, filled it with cranberry juice, and sucked up three decent chunks of mildew that had collected near the base of the straw.

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving we need room for the food in our fridge. This task seems to, mostly, be given to me. I love taking everything out and rearranging it and cleaning everything to sparkling perfection. The fridge is one of the few places that I will spend extended time cleaning.

I'm sure you all know where this is going.

SO.
I made a cake last week.
And well, I guess you're not supposed to leave cake, no matter how dry, out on the counter for a week.

Because today, my Dad went to grab a nice big handfull...
and found this.

It grew fur.

So, I just finished throwing up. I'll tell you why!

I just used the end of my tooth brush to push down my tongue so I could look at my tonsils. I just got over tonsillitus but I can taste the unmistakable tonsil stone flavour in there somewhere. My tooth brush tasted foul and I retched. I looked at the tooth brush holder cup thing, then took our toothbrushes out and toothpaste and looked inside to see a pool of mouldy goop, black and green... I had time to yell 'oh my god' before being sick in the toilet. I can't tell if the taste in my mouth is just the bile & vegetarian sushi or if it's also the taste of mould and grime + tonsil stones? ugh.

Sorry no pictures, my boyfriend poured it down the toilet while I was throwing up in it and took it away to be washed (I'll just chuck it away)

I will be cleaning and checking what ever we use next for a toothbrush holder.

last year i posted about forgetting a plate with some cat food on it on a high shelf, and when i finally remembered it was there, it was full of maggots ...

anyway, the same thing happened to me again. kinda. it was not that bad this time, but:
i had put a mug with some tea in it ON THE SAME EXACT SHELF - and forgot about it. a couple of days later there was an awful smell in my room - it was like cat pee, the smell was very, uh, sharp.
i followed the smell, and the source of it was that mug! the tea had turned into a thick, blue-ish liquid ... UGH.

i had no idea such mild substance could end up smelling so bad :|

Seriously, it's now a new life form. How did that gelatinous layer form? And the fuzz! The fuzz! It was once leftover Italian Wedding Soup and now it's...oh I don't even know.

For whatever reason, I was too lazy to throw this Wendy's cup away that's been sitting on my bookcase for oh, I dunno, a month? The cup hadn't started leaking or anything so I didn't figure it was top priority. I decided to to a quick clean of my room tonight and when I went to pour out the cup, this is what I found:

What happens when milk goes bad?

I was a monitor in a summer camp this year, and us teachers and monitors are known to do crazy things. Or rather we get bored easily when the kids are asleep at night, and then experiment.

We used to drink a lot of coffee which we took from the kitchen, and one day we forgot to give the milk jar back. We noticed it a couple of days later, so since it would already be undrinkable, I suggested we could leave it there, and examine the result a couple of weeks later.

They asked me to throw it away a couple of times, but I resisted. And they screamed when I approached this thing and took pictures. I just find it SO FASCINATING.

You'd think after putting my hand in two bags of moudly cheese spread sandwiches when I was young I'd have learnt to clear out my bag and/or lunch box when I'm done with it.

But, I didn't...I need to go buy a new box.

It was two weeks old and left in a warm room on my bedroom floor.
