welcome to fruit fly central for the next decade

This is why you NEVER make an alcoholic item IN the house. You make it outside in a shed or gawdhelpus, the garage but NEVER in the house, unless you have a dedicated room with tile floors and plastic covered everything. My friends who used to make their own wine [before the fires wiped them out in Northern California] created a dedicated room under the house where they made the wine. I hope he hired a professional cleaning company, otherwise, he is still cleaning.

Well, he might do well in the fake blood business!

Looks like someone closed the bottle airtight 😁

OMG...Mom, being an expert canner, decided to make grape juice for us kids and can it (in glass jars) for the winter. She processed all the grapes, made beautiful deep purple juice from them, put it in the quart glass jars and placed them in her big Mirro pressure canner. (This was the 1970s, so it was one of those huge silver canners with the lid that locked and the little weighted steam valve on the top that would "jiggle" as the steam released - remember?) Mom started up the stove, set the timer and walked into the next room. About 15 minutes later, we heard a *CRACK* and then a *BANG* as one of the jars cracked inside the canner, the pressure built up and then shot the weighted steam valve off the top of the canner - it hit the ceiling, ricocheted and flew across the room - followed by a GEYSER of grape juice. There's still a dent in the ceiling to this day. Mom had purple dish towels for years - we used them to mop up the mess.

How much wine did he try to make?!

That totally happens

WHOA!

No idea how that can be achieved with a stab blender but probably lots of laughs were had along with a story and jokes told for years to come. Good effort.

I'd move.

How much wine did he drink beforehand?

Buy your wine, not as much fun but a lot less messy

Not really a fail if you were going for either crime scene, or .... yeah I got nothing ...

in vino veritas Who cleaned up the mess?

Someone's watched the worst youtube tuttorial ever!

I hope Mom made DAD clean that up!

Did Mom KILL Dad?

Look like he sampled too much !

Now, who's gonna clean up this mess?

texas chain saw massacre

Dad needs directions to the wine shop.

TODAY on Dateline

Crime scene ala Fargo?

what is with things trying to explode when you make it

Oh my GOD.

A massacre

This person had/has no right to ever be in anyone's kitchen. . . ever. . . never again. . . should have been a video, I don't know how anyone, let alone an "adult" could make a mess like this!

Tell Dad, wine makes itself if you do it right :)

Looks like a crime scene

yup

Rule number 1 - Don't allow dad to make wine.

Dad made a mess. Mom isn't happy.

and we haven't seen him since!

Presumably he's divorced

is that blood

Yeah. Something happened there...

Looks like the wine exploded!
