On Becoming More Acquainted with Apple Juice

Yesterday, as I wrote that little blurb to post, I thought my baby Lincoln was quietly playing in the other room.  And he was...just with a 2 quart bottle of apple juice unbeknownst to me.  Do you know how sticky apple juice is?  I do.  It's really, really sticky.  So sticky, in fact, that you will have to mop at least three times and then once more just for good measure.

And of course you'll have to wash and wipe the counter at least that many times as well.

And then, when it drips into your drawers, you will have to remove all of the utensils, give them a good going over, wash the trays and mats, and thoroughly wash and wipe out the drawers.

And when it drains into your cupboards and pools in the center, you will have to pull all of the small cooking appliances out and give them a good washing, sop up all the excess and give the cupboards a good wipe down as well.

And then, you will have to do a load of laundry to wash the myriad of towels you have used to clean up the incredible mess that a 21 month old can make without making a sound.

That's a lot of sticky fun.
