zombie hoarde? vampire attack? nope. just wine.

I just spilled red wine.

All over our bed sheet.

Our BEIGE bed sheet.

And really, by all over, I mean only about a one inch diameter spot.

But come on now. It’s red wine, I’m home by myself, I never had a stain like this before, it’s only a month old bed sheet. So to me, it looked like a murder scene.

I’d like to thank Google, for always being there in a pinch, and our neighbor Tom, for loaning me a cup of laundry detergent. Since we just got our washer and dryer YESTERDAY, we have no such supplies.

My advice to you if you have a red wine stain, my friends: act QUICKLY. Rinse it with cold water, sprinkle some salt on it and let it sit for a minute or two, rinse it again. (Possibly repeat this action one more time.) Now rub some laundry detergent in, let that sit, and rinse. Throw that shit in the washer. Then sit back, relax, and marvel at how efficient you are. Hell, have another glass of wine!

Just make sure not to spill it.
