Lighters and ovens
Apparantly I need to stop this business of cooking. Last night I was making pork chops and wild rice and our pilot light was out in the oven. Soooo, I got a lighter, lit it and then put the pan in the oven. The catch is that the lighter was on the sheet holding the pan. Long story short, I baked a lighter at 350 for an hour! By the grace of God alone my kitchen did not blow up :-) When I took the chops out I saw it there, freaked out and grabbed it and threw it outside. Roy just shook his head when he got home and is wondering what I'm going to be like when I'm ninety :-)
Too tired to write anything else tonight, I hope everyone had a good day!!!! KristI, I don't know WHY I keep doing that :-) Mucho apologies again!!!! I'm mailing out invitations either tomorrow or Saturday and the party is next Thursday (the 16th) at 6:30. I hope you can make it but please don't feel bad if you have something else going on. I spend most of my work week trying to avoid invitations to these freakin' things :-)

I can't tell you the number of near misses I've had over my 61 years, or the dumb things I've done. Just thankful you're okay. How was the meal? No plastic or lighter fluid taste? ;-)
You are too funny!!!
I probably won't know for sure about the party til next week. It all depends on how much scrambling I need to do to get things ready for our trip, but I hope to make it. Would you e-mail me directions to your place please?
Did your neighbors think you were being attacked by a lighter when you threw it outside???? Ha! You're not even blonde!!! (Just kidding!) Hey, at least you cook. I don't find the time to cook as much as I should!
Yes it's funny, now, but I bet it wasn't funny at the time! I think we've all done things like that. I'm so glad someone was watching over you and kept your (and your kitchen) safe!
It wasn't too long ago I put a bag of micro popcorn into the microwave, a brand new microwave, and then got a phone call and forgot about it. It not only burned up in the mikey but it belched dark smoke all through the house, set off the smoke detector and proceeded to turn the inside of my brand new mikey a poopee colour. Geez... and I'm not blonde either.... :-D
