Messy Moments

Spending time with friends and family can lead to fun and memorable moments, but also some very messy ones. Tell us about the messiest moments that you’ll always remember!

If you know me, then you know that I am rather, well, clumsy and accident prone. I spilled coffee on myself the first 4 days of my new attorney job. I once was at dinner with a boyfriend's family and squirted lemon right into his dad's eye... See what I mean? But perhaps my most shining or messy moment involved salsa and my now-husband's kitchen.

Our thing is breakfast. We even served it at our reception. So every Sunday we either went out for breakfast or he cooked (its his meal!). Well I decided I would be ever so helpful and get out the salsa for our egg burritos. I got the giant Sam's size jug out of the fridge and set it on the counter. I then went ahead and unscrewed the cap to make sure it was fresh. I then got distracted, what's new, and walked away. I came back into the kitchen ready to dine and proceeded to shake the salsa bottle... and that's when the salsa hit the fan!

Salsa everywhere! My poor boyfriend's kitchen was covered in the hot, red stuff. Not to mention we was as well. So there stands my self-confessed, clean-freak of a boyfriend covered in salsa. Did I mention it was the chunky kind? I burst into tears. I was upset, embarressed and well just downright defeated. (This came only weeks after the great Cheerio-explosion). I did not hear from him for a good week.

No we laugh about this moment and every time I get the salsa out, he grabs its from me and offeres to help! Amazing how some of life's messy moments can turn into loving ones!
