God takes care of fools & carb lovers

I had to giggle at this. Today for lunch I packed left over beef stew. I carefully weighed out the meat first, then some carrots and then added 4 pieces of cut up potato. (I used to eat beef stew over a bed of white rice- so I figure a portion of a potato is huge progress...)

Go to heat it up int he microwave @ work. I loosen the top, but apparently not enough. I hear a boom and look- every freaking piece of potato exploded out of my beef stew. Not a single piece of carrot, beef or onion was disturbed. Figures. God apparently knew I didn't need those particular carbs today.

Oh god. I am not sure if I would have laughed or cried on that one. I hate cleaning the microwave.

I had to giggle out loud when I just read this 

At home, you might scrape those potatoes off the top of the microwave and deem them still edible... at work, you just can't do that with everyone else's messy stuff stuck there too!

You know there was a millisecond where I debated if I could still eat them-- but just like you said- not taking that chance with the work microwave.

That's one funny story and the reason I never microwave without covering the food.
