Sooo....last night I had an incident with one of those HUUUGE bath bombs from Moon's Harvest. Actually it was one of their bath shakes, which are also very large. The one I have is kinda crumbly. Anyway, I was breaking off a piece to put into my bath when I lost my grip on it and a MASSIVE piece went tumbling down into...you guessed it, THE TOILET.

I sheepishly informed DH that we had a problem, and he came in and good-naturedly rolled his eyes at the pretty pink fizz adorning our toilet bowl. Seriously it was a huge piece that fell in there. If I had flushed too soon, it would have clogged the plumbing. DH said we should just wait for it to dissolve. I had my doubts, but the alternative was to try to do something about it, and it is still a toilet, pink cotton-candy bath bomb or not. So I just left it in there for my whole bath and cringed when I flushed it later on, but the flushing process was totally normal and it must have broken down all the way. Whew! Hope Mr. Toilet appreciates the froo-froo bath he just received.

OMG, Christy! I would have been freaking out. Glad it all worked out okay in the end.

Funny how you mentioned this. I just made some bath bombs with a friend yesterday and am about to try my hand at making my own. A Lush store recently opened up here and my girls tried a few. They loved them, but we can't see spending $6 a pop, so we are going to make our own.
I'll make sure they don't drop any in the toilets!

Look on the brightside Christy, I once dropped a Dior eyeshadow palette down my toliet, was totally in tears as was a christmas gift and barely used.

You would have thought I would have learnt not to do my makeup in the bathroom after that but on no, not me, to date Mr toliet has claimed 2 lipglosses, one lipstick and an eyeliner amongst things

And on a second bright note least you don't have to scrub your toliet this week, while i had to go fishing for makeup lol.

LOL! I would have just pulled it out, rinsed it in the sink and thrown it in the tub.

After changing dirty diapers for years, cleaning dirty bums, scooping cat litter, picking up doggy doo in the yard and cleaning up kid/cat/dog puke, I don't think a little toilet water would bother me.

I'm with you on this one. With kids and pets around, I'm used to the gross stuff. CMarie, that is hilarious. Your toilet got the royal treatment.

Too funny Christy! I bet the look on your face as it flew into the toilet was priceless. Bet it made your bathroom smell good.

Actually my opinion of Moon's Harvest products is not very high and I am just trying to use the stuff up, so it didn't bother me.

It was a lot like that moment right after you violently open a bag of chips or salad you've been struggling with, and the stuff flies all over the room.

Mostly this incident was good for its humor value.

I also agree with Aria and Jules...recycled toilet bomb is better that no bomb at all..I love your story Christy...Having 2 boys I had my share of "nasty" through the years.
