Spiders and Buttermilk

No, they do not have anything to do with each other...

This morning I found a huge spider in my kitchen sink. It was so big that it had to pull in its legs to fit into a glass. (I usually capture spiders by scooping them up with a glass and a piece of paper.) It was huge! It was hairy! And I cannot remember having seen a spider like that before. I was too much of a sissy and afraid that it would escape again, so I didn't take a picture, but dumped it out of the window instead. Hopefully it will learn and not come back into my appartment again, or at least, hide better, so that I don't find it again.

Buttermilk - In Denmark milk cartons are color coded in shades of blue according to the fat percentage the milk contains. The green milk carton contains buttermilk. Maybe I should have told that my guest. This morning he indicated (a little timidly) that the milk has gone bad, since it flocculated in the coffee which I couldn't understand at all, since it tasted fine in my tea. It turned out that he had taken the buttermilk (the milk in the green carton). Poor guy!
