We were almost ready to leave for the allotment this morning and I had warmed the flask up prior to filling it with tea so it would stay hot for longer. I poured the tea in and had just topped it up with milk when there was a sudden explosion and I and the entire kitchen were covered in hot tea! Hubby dashed into the kitchen to find me sliding down a kitchen cupboard helpless with laughter, tea dripping from my hair and down my face.
The flask had exploded and tea was all over my lovely clean kitchen. You wouldnt believe how far that tea travelled! Hubby had to climb up and scrub the ceiling as well as the cupboard doors. I had tea all over my hair, face, glasses and clothes.
It was my own fault of course. It was a proper flask with glass innards and the water i used to warm it was from a recently boiled kettle. I guess the explosion was caused by the cooling effect of the milk
Never do that ladies!
