We had a little container full of shredded raw cabbage in Mom's fridge and I knocked it over while trying to put something away.
There were little itty-bitty pieces of cabbage all over the ground which took me a good five minutes to pick up.
Twenty minutes later, my Mom came looking for me.
(Laughing in Mandarin) "You know that cabbage you spilled everywhere? I opened the fridge and it fell out again. I just spent another 5 minutes cleaning THAT up, too."
Good thing she didn't think that I put the cabbage back in the fridge poorly. I was ready to tell her that we had some suicidal cabbage.
