This is how I clean up after Christmas dinner, or any other meal for that matter...
Scrapey, scrapey into the organics bin with a FORK.
You NEVER let that cold, disgusting POST-MEAL food TOUCH YOU! NEVER!
EVERYONE KNOWS THAT COLD DISCARDED FOOD IS DISGUSTING.
However...
This is how our no-nonsense Polish grandma used to clean the plates on Christmas:
WITH HER BARE HANDS! STRAIGHT INTO THE GARBAGE!
Oh...and always with a slightly angry look on her face for everything that she did.
Cold corn and gravy and bits of meat and whatever else fell out of, or didn't make it into our gluttonous yaps...
Burned into my and my sister's brains FOREVER.
Whoo! That was boring.
Grandmas are fun / gross. You wait. You'll have your turn.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to be more gross! Or snuggly...whatever. I miss my grandma! Sniff!
DeleteI love grammas hair did all of them have bad perms!?
ReplyDeleteOH YES, Paula! They thought the perm made their hair effort-free.
DeletePlease bore me more!! Happy New Year!!!! More of these - !!!!!!!.
ReplyDeleteYay! Thank you Melanie! Happy new year to you as well :)
Deletei like that you wear pearls while cleaning up after dinner. i shuck off every scrap of jewelry as my feet cross the threshold of my home.
ReplyDeleteoh there's no bling usually. This was my Christmas look. There might be some hoop earrings and my wedding band and that's about it!
DeleteDon't you clear the plates by eating all the leftovers? Just me then...
ReplyDeleteHappy new year, Karen! xxx
well....yes actually, if they haven't been touched by anyone else. Happy New Year, Curtise!
DeleteI just throw out the entire plate. I don't like to use things more than once. NORMAL. Sarah xxx
