Yes, finally after years of hoping, praying and wishing I finally have the house to myself. Not for long though, my parents will be back in two weeks but I ain’t crying, two weeks is enough for me.
You might think my parents must be crazy to leave a child as insane as me home alone, but it is through no fault of their own. They did try to hire a babysitter.
It didn’t work out so well and they thought I’m better of alone.
They say that human mind is best satisfied when it does something it is not allowed to do and so I did. I have always wanted to cook, put together all the tasty stuff and whip up an extremely delicate yet tasty dish. And since this was my first time in the kitchen I decided to work on something less intricate. I decided I’d make a simple smoothie. So I put in all my favorite food items and mixed and whipped to make the greatest smoothie ever known to man.
The smoothie turned out to be a flop. Lesson learnt: No matter how good meat tastes, do not put it in a smoothie.
Oh! well that was a sad ending to what could have otherwise been MasterChef – esque glory.
Later it so happened I left the hot water tap running in the bathroom and had forgotten all about it. Usually Mother would have noticed and turned it off but today it just kept running till the house was shrouded in a misty gloss. The neighbor seeing this thought the house was on fire and immediately dialed 911. A fire truck appeared around the corner within half an hour. By which I had realized the running water and turned off the tap. So no more smoke = neighbor in trouble.
My neighbor was in shock when she was booked with a hefty fine for causing alarm and wasting valuable emergency resources.
She was later at my door demanding an apology for what was seriously not my mistake to which my reply was, ” What begins with an F ends with a K and costs your neighbor? That’s right, A Firetruck.”
“Your going to have to pay for this you little twat, this is the last of your silly tricks.” She said as she stormed off.
I didn’t take her words seriously till later when….. (To be continued)

The Embarrassment 
LOL love it! And that baby sitter is um, hot?
I think your parents were wise to leave you alone!
They were. Who knows what purgatory nonsense that babysitter might have been into.
What the-?
You decided the wrong day to come to my blog. -.-
You couldn’t even make a meat smoothie? Hey – you must have used the wrong meat! Thanks for the chuckles.
I must have used the wrong meat nonetheless such incompetent behavior cannot be accepted from one so articulate as me 😛
I really need to take cooking lessons.
Sounds like a ‘me’ moment! LoL!!!
A meat smoothie is a protein shake, which I hate!!! LoL!!!
I don’t usually get so many emails, but a few friends who stopped posting are back and there was Miss Demure Restraint who got Freshly Pressed and added a bunch of new folks – it’s all good fun! 🙂
Remember: When going back to church after a long abscence remember to wear a stake proof vest and admit to a taste for Garlic… LoL! 🙂
God Bless and Merry Christmas!
Prenin.
A protein shake? Had I known better I’d have never used meat.
You know there is an option to unsubscribe to those emails. I used to get them a lot when I was new here, but since then I’ve made great friends with the unsubscribe button to those comment emails.
Hmmmm…………. I’ve been left speechless by the thought of you being at home alone for two weeks! I….I…..I…. Oh, forgot about it. Just keep us updated.
Yea, my parents are going to be pretty speechless too when they return.
LOL. Great post. The neighbor paid for it all alone?
Yes. There is no way in hell she would make me pay for any of it.
Meat smoothie.. gosh man.. I hope your days stay as eventful for the rest of the time your parents are away ..
I hope they do too, it would be a sad memory if it loses steam and goes stale.
I have never tried to make a smoothie but if I did, it would definitely contain sausages, steak and bits of lamb.
And brown sauce.
I tried mate, but only it didn’t taste as expected.
Nice blog and the picture are terrific 🙂
Thank You Jake =)
Oh I just love this story.. I don’t think it was your fault though. You just didn’t know. so she can’t get mad at you when she obviously tried to look out for you but got mad at the fine lol.
I bet that sniveling lady is hatching a plot to avenge herself right as we speak.
I love it and can’t wait to see what comes next…..love the pictures!
You WILL love what happened after this. Stay tuned 🙂
911? really? 😛
Always enjoyable, your blogs. You are absolute treat to read.
I think it was the 101 or whatever the Indian equivalent is, all I know is there was a firetruck for me at the end of it 😛
Mate is why sister being hired to babysit out :O
Wow how poorly constructed was that sentence for an individual with a high IQ? I don’t even know what was happening there.
…Mate why is my sister being hired to babysit you?
She was such a sweet heart but don’t know why my parents cancelled at the last moment, maybe because of the extra piercing on the ear… so not cool.
Great post – so far! Awesome pics!
Glad you enjoyed it so far, wait till you see what happened next.
meat smoothie? ew…
siblings and i never had baby sitters. i am happy about that !lol
I know. I wanted it to be the best in the world but somehow meat does not qualify for a good smoothie.
Am I the only one who doesn’t pronounce the ‘u’ at the end of firetruck?
Whoa! Thanks for pointing out, corrected the error now 🙂

Hahaha…
maybe your neighbor should have offered the firefighters a smoothie…
(I’m sure they would have reduced the bill a bit). Maybe.
🙂
HAHAHA.. maybe she should have. One of the stand out points about being home alone is seeing the neighbor exasperated because of what I’ve done.
Meat in smoothie….? Cool but I don’t think I could eat one. May be egg yolk or something. It was fun though right? The F and K was a surprise. As your neighbor, man she’s on fire , huh? She stormed out with smokes….
