spoon anyone?

So Dan and I received a really great blender for a wedding present. We used to make milkshakes all the time.... well, I should say, Dan used to make milkshakes all of the time (once we figured out how to keep it from leaking). I just enjoyed them. We mostly made banana... and canned mandarin oranges when we had them.

One day, I was wanting a milkshake. Dan wasn't. He also was not in the mood to make me one (boo). So I figured I was smart enough to make one "all by myself". Well, I thought wrong. We like our milkshakes thick so Dan would always stir it with a big plastic spoon while the blender was going. I know, I know. But he was good at it. I... was not. After a loud crunch,and when I pulled out a jagged spoon handle I knew I'd done something wrong.

We enjoyed the milkshakes anyways. (Yes, Dan ended up having some. What a guy.) We just figured whoever got the end of the spoon would throw it away when they found it in their milkshake.

So, half an hour later, when we had both finished our milkshakes we remembered the spoon. "Hey, did you get the spoon?"
" No"
"Oh, neither did I, weird...."

So apparently I fed Dan (and myself) tiny bits of plastic spoon in a milkshake. Maybe I was getting him back for the time he fed me glass.... on a piece of toast.... But that is a whole other story for another post......

Ha ha, that is so funny! We've been a real kick for banana milkshakes lately, though they take forever to make, since I don't want to do the same thing you did (I have before...) I blend, stop the blender, stuff the icecream to the bottom, blend, etc. haha I'm such a nerd.

That is so funny!! I did it myself too once when I was trying to make a milkshake for my dad because he was mad at me... he kept finding wooden spoon chunks in it.... he thought I was trying to kill him. LOL

haha We also are Smoothie/Milkshake enthusiasts. We also have had wooden-spoon Milkshakes before. And all you can do is laugh and make sure that your not the one who ends up with the wooden spoon. Thanks for the Laugh!!

You made me laugh out loud! Hilarious. I've managed to blend the funnel part of the lid of my blender. Guess that's what happens when you put it in upside down :(
