Kitchen issues, part 436
This week has not been a good one for me and cooking. I had the issue with the pie (it still turned out pretty good). I dropped the salad all over the floor. My cookies all came out fine, but I realized when my oven started pouring out smoke that I bought waxed paper instead of parchment paper. The kitchen was smoky and the cookie sheets ended up all waxy and gross and hard to clean. I hate waxed paper. I’m planning more baking for this weekend. I’ve learned from my mistakes, but I just know I’ll find something new to destroy.
Possible disasters:
- I’m trying two things I’ve never baked before. They’ll be inedible.
- There are two ovens. I’ll preheat one oven and try to bake in the other one, wasting hours on cookies that aren’t cooking and ruining the empty oven.
- There are four hungry dogs in the house. They’ll eat the dough.
- There are four curious dogs in the house. One of them will end up in the oven.
- I’ll get distracted quoting Martin and Lewis with Mel and the cookies will burn.
- I’ll get distracted quoting Martin and Lewis with Mel and the house will burn down.
Yeah, those seem likely. Who’s betting?
