In Case You Were Wondering But Were Too Afraid to Try . . .
December 5, 2007
In case you were wondering but were too afraid to try, if you leave a plastic jug of peanut oil outside (the jug with the leftover oil from the deep-fried turkey), the critters in them thar woods right behind your house will do their best to claw their way through the plastic into the peanuty goodness. In fact, they’ll even manage to make one big claw mark on the bottom that you don’t know exists. Until later.
In case you were wondering but were too afraid to try, letting the peanut oil in that clawed jug leak all over your garage floor overnight leaves your house smelling like overcooked meat.
In case you were wondering but were too afraid smart to try, cleaning up a couple gallons of peanut oil with newspaper only leaves you with a wonderful example of how long eternity is.
But I’m still thankful.
There is Oil Dry.

Whew, I’m so glad you went ahead and took care of this for me. Now I know.
And sawdust works good for picking up oil too. And it smells good.
sorry about the spill. Wonder what critter it was?
Aww, sounds like something that would happen to me =( Glad it’s over with!
Georgiana took my comment–seems like something that would happen to me. And possibly still will, in spite of your kind warning!
I think we’ve got all kinds of critters in the woods behind us, and our neighbor feeds the squirrels so . . . But don’t get us started on that topic.
Too funny! Not to you really, I’m sure. I could just envision this happening to me too!
It’s good to hear about life in KC. We trust that you are settling in and enjoying your new home and church.
