Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk...
Who ever said that don't know what they're talking about. My wife and I stopped by the grocery store 3 days ago and picked up a few things and we were in my pick-up truck. Last night I went out to the refrigerator in the garage to get some milk and there was none there. I told my wife I could swear we bought some extra milk at the store the other day. She said I'm sure we did. I figured that they must have not put it in the bag at the store so I'd have to stop by the store and get some more.
Well today I went out to the garage to get a tool from my truck and when I raised the bed cover it was very clear where that half gallon of milk had gone to. :shock: It had rolled out of the grocery bag and was behind my tool box and had been sitting there in the heat all that time. The milk had expanded and blew the cap off the bottle and it was all over the bed. The only good thing, to my surprise, was that there were no maggots.
After about an hour of cleaning and scrubbing it still stinks. I'll let it air out and scrub it again tomorrow. :roll:

You CAN cry over old spilled milk, though. In fact, it'll water your eyes on its own. But you already know that.
Vinegar water (about 1:3) sprayed on, allowed to sit and then rinsed.0 -
So if you're not supposed to cry can you at least gag? Sounds like quite a mess! 0 -
had to put a great aunt in nursing home few years back, she lived alone and had gotten quite senile, she had a 1974 pontiac ventura that only had 54,000 miles on it sitting in her garage. It was full of kroger/wallmart sacks, she would go to grocery store get groceries and only take one or two bags in house, trunk was full and back seat as well, and had been for 2-3 years. meat, produce, dairy you name it. It was a crying shame she lived that way and just as bad I would have loved to had the car, but you would never get smell out, it was in headliner,seats, and all vinyl and plastic trim even stunk. we sold it for $300 dollars, oh and the house was just as bad the trash around her recliner was even with the arms on the chair and she had a path through the house rest was knee deep with trash.
that was a mess I hope to never have to clean again, ended up selling the house and putting the money toward her nursing home care she lived almost 10 more years though she never really realized where she was, she still remember me and my mom, and would allways say when we went to visit, to go to kitchen and make pot of tea/coffee so we could have a cup while we visited.0
