Last night I learned that daffodil water can induce vomiting. How do I know this? Because I accidentally drank about 2 inches of daffodil water as I was loading the dishwasher. I realize that "accidentally drank" sounds like an impossibility. I assure you it is not impossible, but it is rather irresponsible.
Before bed, fatigued from the day and in a chore haze, I was loading up the dishwasher for what felt like the gazillionth time that day. I picked up a glass that held about 2 inches of water. I thought it was the water I had been drinking earlier in the evening, so I gulped it down before putting the glass into the dishwasher. It wasn't until after I swallowed and tasted the floral aftertaste that I realized it was actually the water from the make-shift daffodil vase.
About 20 minutes later everybody was tucked into bed and ready for the night. My stomach began to turn, but I assumed it was more of a mental reaction to the floral burps I was experiencing. I opted to lie still and wait it out. 45 seconds later I realized that I miscalculated the situation. I sprung up, shouted for a bowl and frantically tried to don my liner and leg.
I was too late. I ended up projectile vomiting a combination of daffodil water and red velvet cake all over myself, my bedroom wall and Scott. It was beyond disgusting! I rushed to the bathroom where I endured 15 minutes of retching and sweating agony. As quickly as it came upon me it was over- with the exception of the red stains on our walls and carpet.
Our bedroom now looks like a crime scene. Learn from me. Don't drink the daffodil water.
