For my friends and my family

I TRIPLE-dog-dare ya!

By Christy On Sunday, December 23, 2007 At 7:00 PM

My gracious husband dared me to eat a spoonful of ground cinnamon.

I said okay.

At first he started back tracking and explaining it will really hurt my tongue. But I'm an easy target. I have a competitive spirit and I'm an easy person to dare.

In went the spoonful of cinnamon.

It instantly dried up my entire mouth and throat. Desert like, I'm telling you. I laughed, cinnamon flew out of my mouth, a puff of red smoke. I would not give up. Brian told me to spit it out. Oh no. I was not giving up on this dare. I get to pick anything I want off my amazon wish list if I swallow this spoonful of evilness.

I got up, still not able to breathe and poured a glass of water. There was no feasible way to swallow when I had no moisture at all in my mouth. I took a sip of water and swallowed the evilness.

Meanwhile Brian is laughing, Braeden is clueless as to what is happening and there is cinnamon residue all over the kitchen floor. But I swallowed it, yes I did, I followed through with the dare. No one said I couldn't take a sip of water. It had been 10 minutes and I have not thrown up. I get a wish list item!

I can't believe you did that! The funniest part was when you started talking and puffs of cinnamon came flying out of your mouth when you spoke!!

I have new-found admiration for you and you definitely deserve ANYTHING you want off your wishlist.

I love you! (Sorry I burned your mouth with cinnamon)

Nooooo! You did not! I can't believe you tried that!! I have heard tales and seen You Tube clips but never did I know anyone who has actually done it!! (I realize I don't REALLY know you, but in the blog world I do!)

That man better have followed through and gotten you what you wanted on that wish list!! :)

By the way, that is exactly the kind of stuff you will always remember about the first of your marriage. It's those moments that make the memory list for me, anyway...
