My neibor gave me a sealed tupperware container full of some kind of cheesy chickeny something or another that proceeded to stink up the whole refridgerator with the smell of garlic.
Any ideas on how small a molecule would have to be to pass through plastic? Are garlic molecules a miracle of physics? Is there a super accurate Garlic Clock somewhere calibrated by the decay of a garlic molecule? And why does she keep bringing me stuff when I never return her tupperware?
Maybe she’s trying to get rid of excess Tupperware. My husband has alarming amounts of Tupperware, from when he was younger and his mom would always send him home with leftovers. We must have 50 containers in various sizes, which we don’t have room for. I keep trying to give it away, but there’s always more!
Are you sure you don’t live next door to my mother-in-law?
