New Years eve. at a friends house. Now, they only moved in to this new, and I mean brand new built place in September, so it's all brand spanking new.
Anyway, as things were getting going, I nipped to the kitchen to 'do' my shake. I always take water from the kettle as its better to have it boiled previously. Well, I didn't realise that the water had just been boiled and was piping hot. So I poured it into the shaker, as you do, followed by the powder, closed the lid, gave it a violent shake, as you do, and......................................................................................................
OMG the lid shot off and 600 ml of hot chocolate LT shake was everywhere.......all over my clothes, face, hair.... all over the clean new posh kitchen and of course all over the prepared food.
I would have paid any money to be shot dead there and then.
I ran out the back door, and escaped to my car. By the time I was in a frame of mind to phone the hosts, someone had already discovered the mess and they were not happy at all.
And that was my NYE party.
So, don't put hot water into the shaker, NEVER, I certainly won't.
