The Day They Took The Eggs Benny Away
(That there is a proper submissions title for my first QOTW . . . be gentle now)

We spent a week in November one year celebrating a little early Christmas with some family who lived 6 hours away. Carpooling for efficiency and savings, I ended up in a car with my sister, my nephew, my niece and our favourite uncle. As a lovely send off the day we left our hostess prepared eggs benedict for all and we got on the road a little later than expected. Less than an hour in my niece began to complain she wasn't feeling too well. Being that we all had to work in the morning and needed to get home and settled we pushed on. Wasn't a long drive after all.

Needless to say about 30 mins later on the 401 she puked up the entirety of her eggs benny all over the rear seat of the car. (Thankfully being my sister's car as mine had stayed home) We pulled over and cleaned it as best we could but for the remainder of the trip we had to keep the windows down as the smell would not dissipate. It began to snow quite hard and by the time we finally arrived home we were all feeling fairly horrible. . . .and to this day I cannot bear the thought of eating eggs benny ever again :(
