Pop Quiz

1. The first person to spill food on themselves on the plane was...

2. The fastest person to spill food on themselves on the plane was...

3. The first person to spill beverage on someone else on the plane was...

and finally, 4. It was _____ hours into the 14 hour flight by the time all three of these events had happened...

(Here's a hint.)




Answer key:
1. That would be me. We bought mini pizzas at O'Hare (because it's not a visit to Chicago without deep dish pizza) and brought them on the plane. I held off as long as I could, but that was only maybe five minutes after take off. Halfway through the second slice I had pizza sauce strategically placed on my shirt and right pants leg.

2. Winner of fastest (or most efficient) spiller goes to Emily, who waited longer into the flight to start her pizza, but had spilled within three bites. 

3. Beverage spiller: Mom. Beverage spillee: Beth (bonus points if you got both right!). Lunch was served and Dorothy paired her meal with RED WINE, of which she spilled at least half of the cute little bottle they serve it in all over my left leg. Between my spill and mom's, my pants now smell like a drunk Italian. Good thing I'd only planned on wearing them four more times this trip. 

And woe to the blanket that had sat upon my lap. That really bore the brunt of the wine. 

4. It was less than two hours into the 14 hour flight by the time all three of these events had happened.  Less than two. If you squint at the little plane on the map, you'll notice we've just entered Canadian airspace. 

Tally up your scores class. How did you do?
