How Not To Be A Hillbilly

[conniebky]

So yesterday I went and got me a box of wine - remembering how me and kareng joked on here about drinking it straight from the box

so, it wasn't cold (oh, excuse me, chilled), so I put it in the freezer to cool it off.

NOTE: Do Not EVER Do This!

So when I decided to get it out and have a cup of wine on a Saturday night, I went and opened it. My kitchen (and me) both now look like one of them polka dot dresses that I Love Lucy used to wear.

When the air hit that box of wine, I don't know, I guess the air in it got compressed in the freezer, and boy oh oh boy when I turned the crank on that thing, that wine flew all over EVERYTHING!

Then the cardboard box that it's in got all mushy and I said I am NOT losing any more of this wine, so I got out my duct tape and taped that box up, top to bottom.

So now sitting in my fridge is a box covered in grey, pink and orange duct tape, just waiting for me.

And I wonder why they call us Hillbillies.

That is too funny! I almost spit out the boxed wine I was drinking, laughing so hard!

Duct tape is a wonderous invention!

oh funny. that would also be don't leave the champagne in the freezer too long or you'll be drinking slushies and the first glass will be *much* stronger than the rest.

Also known as 'jacking', this is a lovely way to get applejack-hard (very hard!) cider!
