The dinner incident

The other day I made spaghetti and meat balls for dinner while mommy and daddy went to the grocery store. I made the pasta and cooked the meat and dumped out the meat oils and stuff. Then I put in the pasta sause. We at dinner and it was really really good spaghetti (if I do say so myself). We ate a huge carton of ice cream (yum) for dessert. Perfect dinner!!! We went to bed and that night it got really cold. (If you think all the seamingly pointless stuff I am saying is random then you are wrong. The stupid stuff I'm saying is not pointless.) The next morning mommy was cooking breakfast and discovered that the left sink did not drain. At all. It was totally blocked. She asked me where I had dumped the oils from the meat and I said I had dumped them in the sink.(Duh, where else is there to dump them?!) Then she explained that dumping fat down the drain will clog the drain becasue when it cools off it hardens in the pipes and clogs the drain. What you're supposed to do is dump it in a cup or something and leave it overnight and then throw it in the trash! I had to unblock the drain after breakfast and it was really gross. I had to get all the water that was in the sink into the other sink so it wouldn't drain onto the floor when I unskrewed the pipe. Then I had to unskrew the pipe with a bucket underneath to catch the water that was sitting in the pipe. When I got the pipe unskrewed I scooped all the hardened fat out of the pipe and into a cup and dumped it outside. Then I skrewed the pipe back in and the drain was all better!! TaDaa!!!!
