Macaroni Launch

I squeezed right through the cracked bedroom door and marched straight down the hallway into the sunlit kitchen. Time for new territory! Right beside the pantry, I spotted a giant wooden spoon resting precariously over a thick cork coaster, with a stray piece of dry elbow macaroni sitting right in the bowl. Obviously, this was high-level artillery training. I took three bounding steps back, charged forward, and slammed both feet down onto the flat handle with everything I had! WHAP! The spoon struck the linoleum, and that little pasta rocket launched straight into the air, smacking the cabinet door with a glorious clatter. First shot, direct hit!
