No. I left the spot there on purpose. This way the children have one teeny
little thing to tease their otherwise perfect mother about. LOL!!!
Actually, I didn't see that spot for a few days. By that time, it was well
and truly dried and a sponge mop wasn't gonna get it. I'm sure we'll paint
the ceiling eventually. LOL

Biscuit Head:
A derogatory slang nickname for a border collie whose covert, illicit
counter-surfing activities lead her to bite into a gallon-sized,
improperly vented ziplock bag containing active sourdough starter, with
explosive results.
I was annoyed at losing the starter but it's hard not to laugh at a dog
whose ears are spackled to to her neck.

I about swallowed my gum I laughed and snorted so hard at that one!!! LOL
Poor gal. Bet she hasn't done too much more counter surfing after that. We
are babysitting this weekend. So I have my dog and one extra. My kitchen
floors have never been so clean -- who knew two landsharks were this
efficient!!!

I find it quite easy to stir it up with a table knife, and a knife is
easier to clean than a hand mixer -- not to mention that I was going
to dirty one to spread the peanut butter anyway.
But Adams might come in a bigger container than Kroger Natural, which
comes in a container that two people can empty before the peanut
butter gets stale even though we prefer it at room temperature.
