I did not know our kid was getting rid of the food that she did not like, until I found it in her secret hiding spot. She must have been putting food in that spot for numerous weeks, because the food was filled with mold plus rotten. I turned on the oil furnace this morning, because it was truly chilly last night. The lake house was only 55 degrees plus I decided to turn on the oil furnace for a couple of seconds. After a few seconds, I started to stink the most horrible stink coming from the home office. I looked all over the room plus I even cleaned out the fridge. Still, the horrible stink lingered all over the room. I got out some cleaning supplies plus I scrubbed all of the countertops. After I was finished, I got down on our hands plus knees plus scrubbed the floors. While I was scrubbing the floors, I found the location plus source of the stink. On the left side of the dining room table, there is a vent for our oil furnace on the floor. My kid sits on the chair directly above the oil furnace vent. I do not guess the amount of food was a mistake or an accident, so I assumed our kid was hiding the food in the oil furnace vent. It was a clever place to hide the food, until I realized where the stink was coming from. When I confronted him with the truth, she started crying plus begged me not to make him eat spinach. I’m lucky the food did not cause damage to the vent or the oil furnace.
