Today's signature accomplishment: opening the bottle of coke.

That's not quite as pitiful as you'd think. The ring hadn't been perforated from the cap, so there was a steak-knife involved to saw it open. Then a butter knife and fork to wedget it apart and, when at last the bottom ring rotated but the top stayed put, much shouting followed by boiled water.

When I think of the ways this could have gone wrong... well. There's a reason I'm not allowed around sharp objects. :-)

*giggling insanely* Oh my goodness, I thought I was the only one to have that happen.

I'm glad no limbs were lost in your battle.

ROFL! That happened to me and the DH a couple of times. AARRGH!! So frustrating. And, in hindsight, hilarious.

The first one we just took back inside to the store. The other one--well, we did the steak knife thing, and a few other things (though we didn't think of boiling water!) and finally got it off with some pliers!
