Welcome Home

I thought I'd surprise Bart with my domestic skills and figured I'd cook some pork chops and have dinner all ready by the time he got home from work.

Well...
  • I forgot to put the water in the pot before putting them in the oven, charring them to the bottom of the pan and producing something closer to jerky.

  • I didn't realize the lid of my pan was going to melt either. I pulled the pan out of the oven and had no way to get the lid off, since the handle was melted right off.

  • I went and got some beans out of my parents garden, I forgot about them and went outside to go over some landscaping possibilities, when I got back there was no water in the pan anymore and the beans were charred to the bottom of that pan as well.

So basically 2 pans ruinned, 1 lid melted. And some chewy meat. Better luck next time.

All About Bend

So Bart had a conference in Bend, OR. It was so much fun for me to be on the relaxing end of a conference. I went shopping and hung out by the pool. It was great.
