Phew - that was a close shave!!

[leeverarch]

I just mixed some stuffing (paxo - nothing fancy) for this evening's dinner, and then decided to make a cup of tea. While it was brewing, I picked up the spoon and was about to lick it... and then realised at the very last millisecond that I'd picked up the other spoon on the side. The one which I had used a few minutes earlier to dish up the cat food.😂

Please tell me I am not the only person who does this sort of thing!

Bloody hell. I am not sure who has the saddest life, you for writing this or me for reading.

I'm allergic to nuts but DH eats them so we always have some in the house. I just don't eat them.

I jokingly told DS that you could build a house with Weetabix mush so he decided to use it as a mortar for his Lego house.

We normally use a fork, but this cat food was particularly sloppy and I was dividing three pouches between four bowls (an art in itself, especially when being watched).

At least you stopped yourself in time @leeverarch. Not like me, the time I sliced the lime for my gin with the knife I'd just used to slice smoked salmon.

Oh god, this is entirely the sort of thing I do.

Don't you just squeeze the pouch into the bowl? I'm new to cat slavery but I don't use any utensils

@CatamaranViper my DCat doesn't like the pouches unless smooshed up and I'll occasionally buy the £££ cans in the summer when DCat doesn't drink much water as they are much wetter and I use a fork to get every last bit out.

😂😂😂😂
op I do this funny shit all the time !!
imagine if u licked it thou 🤣🤣🤣

She did say two spoons in the OP!
I picked up the spoon and was about to lick it
realised at the very last millisecond that I'd picked up the other spoon on the side

Other spoon! Therefore more than one spoon!

At least someone is on my wavelength😂

I've been muttering 'Two Spoons' to myself for the last hour, like I'm in some post-apocalyptic version of a Two Ronnies sketch...

Ahhh fair. I smush the pouch before I open it which seems to be sufficient for my cat but we're both new and inexperienced

Dividing three pouches between four bowls and squashing it up, otherwise they just lick up the gravy and leave the lumps. Then they glare at you two hours later because they are peckish again and you've thrown the lumps away because they didn't eat them the last time you left them down.

It's a steep learning curve, but you'll get there. Actually no, forget that, you'll never win.

@Singleandproud urgh 😖

I love cats, but not enough to share mouth fluids with.

Meh... about 20 years ago my dad made pasties with tinned meat and a tin of potatoes he found in the pantry.

I don't need to say much more, do I?

He reported that they tasted different from the ones mam made, but were delicious none the less.

We had two forks different to all the others which were just for cat food. Our cat died a year ago and I can neither get rid of them nor use them for anything else.

Ha @leeverarch my good friend worked in a pet food factory and in Quality Control they had to taste the dog food.

I was in a rush making a sandwich while putting some laundry on. Squeezed mayonnaise into the washing machine drawer.

I walked into the kitchen to find DH spoon-feeding the cat last week. I had to laugh.

@Christ0nABike 😁

How many of you have made cofftea? If you know, you know 😉

My DH put salt on his cereal at his mums rather than sugar. Then moaned the milk was off as it tasted odd...

I regularly tuck into my overnight oats with chopped apple to find it has either an onion or garlic tang because I've used the same knife I have used to chop dinner...

I've never put Mayo in the washing machine though that's a great one 🤣

Yes, much to the amusement of the waiter who was serving our breakfast. The next morning he gave us an extra cup each just in case.

Oh I don't mind a cofftea!

Firstly, you need to use a shitty old fork that probably came from your granny's house for cat food. Secondly, why was it on the side not in the sink or dishwasher....
