Today I was cooking up some swell food – spicy italian sausage in the oven at 400 degrees – while red onion and zucchini were sauteing in some olive oil – all getting ready to hop into a pot of whole grain egg noodles. When – in the process of putting the super-heavy cast iron frying pan back into the oven, a conflageration of miserable happened. Stuff started to slosh out of the pan – I moved to adjust my angle – the towel that I was using to hold the pan shifted and then I was holding the hell hot metal.
Ice and cold water were my friends for the next couple of hours and every time I would try to go without – yowza! -pain – pain – pain.
I considered sticking a knife onto my foot to distract the pain – but decided that was a horrible idea.
In the end – I probably learned some lesson – not really sure what it is – still too distracted by my dumb hand.
Hopefully the food will be good and make it all a little worthwhile.
Otherwise – I guess there is always the knife option. Or not. Or maybe. Or maybe not. Or ouch!
Here is a picture of a cat that Socks organized while we were on our walk today.
I think that it is supposed to represent something about how nature is creeping up on us – even while we sleep – so we should wipe it out before it gets to us.
Of maybe it is just a cute cat. I’m not too good with symbology.
Holy bananas you guys.
Here – in the future – where I currently am – I am able to now write posts from my telephone.
I don’t even wanna tell you where I am posting this from right now . . . Okay – fine – I am sitting at my desk – right in front of my computer – but that isn’t the point. The point is magic!!
Now if only I could get this thing to “magically” stop dropping all of my calls – then we would really be getting somewhere . . .
