I will never forget the time when my mom, sister, and I made one of those Jello no-bake cherry cheesecakes. We were so excited to have it for dessert. My mom put it on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator to set, and after awhile, she opened the fridge to retrieve it. Somehow, it slipped from her hands and went tumbling to the floor. It was all down the front of the fridge, on the shelf itself, and on the floor. We were so sad, but laughing all at the same time. The only thing that made it funnier was that she went and got a spatula to try and salvage it and put it back into the pie pan off of the shelf and floor. Luckily, the floor had just been mopped and was clean, but still to this day, we laugh about having cherry cheese pie "A la Floor"! LOL! We even have a picture somewhere, but I don't have it - my mom does. We used to laugh so much at my mom's house....
I love that story! I once dropped an entire bowl of homemade pasta sauce that was going to be used for lasagna. Chris looked at me in horror and I just laughed and asked the kids what kind of pizza they wanted for dinner. It turned into a great night with friends and family and we still laugh about how I'm not allowed to handle the lasagna making anymore. Thanks for sharing your memory - though now I want cheesecake!
