One time I was making spaghetti and meatballs for the family including my sister and her two kids and my Dad. I was putting the spaghetti on a hugh plate and to make it look nice I was lining the meatballs around it with some of the sauce poured on top. My husband was standing right there and telling me I should just throw it altogether in a pot the way his Mother did. I told hm I just wanted to make it look more appetizing. and he kept it up. Told him I was going to let him have it if he didn't get out of the kitchen. He said "You wouldn' dare", Haha, wrong words. I threw it at him and wow! it went all the way into the dining room onto the stucco walls, blue, all over the kitchen, splashed onto the fridge, the table, even over onto the sink. We had a little kitchen where we cooked, off the big one where the fridge and all were.
What a mess, I had 2 lbs of spaghetti on that plate surrounded with meatballs. Well let me tell you, I never realized how far that could go when you throw it. Oh man, did I cry, while he laughed and watched me clean it up. of course I had to laugh too but took me the whole evening to clean up. These rooms were big, the kitchen was 12 by 15, and the dining room was 12 by 12. so you know when it hit the dining room wall it was quite a distance. I will never forget that, and Lyn never dared me again cause he knew I would do it. LOL.
Another time I was at a pool and being older hadn't dove off a diving board in years. These friends of mine dared me, I climbed that ladder and it looked like the pool was the size of a wading pool, I was so scared I was going to do a flop instead of a good dive, but I guess once you learn to dive you don't forget, I dove in and made a good entry into the water. But that was the last time I did that. Haha
I was always ready for a dare when I was young. Like someone daring you to go ask someone to dance with you. or asking a guy for a ride on a bike. I wouldn't never do anything like that without someone pushing me on with a dare. Oh the memories. Told you I could write a book, and these are just a few. haha.
