Hubster just got back from his Guys Weekend Away.
He arrived home gritty, unshowered, unshaven, but beaming from ear-to-ear.
Apparently a Good Time Was Had By All.
He told me he brought me back "a little something" and went out to the garage to retrieve it from his car. A moment later I heard a glass container shatter, followed by a string of expletives. I open the door to find the Happy Hubster now very unhappy, and staring down at a jar of pickled garlic cloves that were strewn all over the driveway. (Hmmm. Interesting gift. I do love garlic, but 'Pickled Garlic Cloves' as a gift for the Little Wife??)
Anyway, he was barefoot and there was glass, vinegar, oil, and a Big Mess ALL over the driveway, so I said "Just come in and relax - we'll clean that up in a little bit."
Famous last words.
(Also, remember that it's 96 degrees in Atlanta today....)
So, after about an hour or so, I open the door and am hit FULL in the face by an overwhelming smell. In fact, this smell defies description. Yes, the pickled garlic cloves (and vinegar-y juices) had been COOKING on the driveway in the late afternoon sun.
It takes a lot to make me gag, but yeah..... that did it.
I guess this was the gift that keeps on giving.... blech.

Good thing your pup didn't eat any. Imagine the poops. Ick.
awww. the man tried. Maybe he is worried about vampires?
I love garlic too, so they won't come to my house...ever.
Ewww... I hadn't even considered if Ruby had EATEN some of that garlic. Now THAT would have led to a very unpleasant surprise. Ick is right.
i can't even smell it and the description made me gag! Ugh! I don't know how I have gotten so far behind on your blog. I am working my way down the list, as you have probably noticed by having about 10 comments from me alone!
