Well, it's wednesday and like all my days at work I'm up before the roosters and trying to get some sleep on the way to work. (I have a cruise control) It seems the minute I get to the job everyone stops thinking. Just once I would like to not have to repeat instructions. I mean some of these guys have been here longer than me. It's the same job just a differt truck. Maybe I'm being punished for a past life. Lord knows there I'll be paying for this one soon enough.
The only bright spot is teasing Callie and the girls. The other day Callie was being a sweetheart and cooking me a lucnh for the next day. She popped it in the oven and sat down to read her book. She looked so happy and content. Up until the time I mentioned "I smell smoke". She jumped up with this look of terror on her face and ran past our 3 year old cusing like a sailor. And apollogizing for her choice of words. She did'nt change them, though. The look on the baby was priceless. She did'nt know what the hell mom was upto, but it was'nt good. That little scene really made my day. Maybe thats why she rarely cooks me a lunch.

At least I didn't burn it!!!
You're the one who mentioned using the smoke alarm as an oven timer. I just thought it was a good idea . . .
And the next time Munchkin swears, just tell her not to talk like Mommy, okay?
I can totally picture that scene! Too funny
Hey my hubby saz the same thing.
Smoke alarm timer yup thats what he saz.
its gotten to the piont that when the smoke alarms go off the kids know it's time to wash their hands for dinner.
My wife once burned boiled eggs. I did not think that could be done until I actually saw it.
you win chris, callie hasnt done that yet. Although she did burn the bottom outta our coffe pot.
Uhmmm . . . sorry to break it to you, sweetheart, but I HAVE burnt boiled eggs. You just never saw them because I threw them out and started over.
I'm sneaky like that.
I have never burn't anything, because I know how to make RESERVATIONS.
My mother was very religious..when she cooked it was burnt offerings..Mo is such a good cook I would never attempt to cook by myself....why mess with perfection. Mo is not buying this. I took her out for Chinese tonight.
Lowk my son got a 360lb (Canadian) buck this yr. Black Bear last year.The grandsons got rifles for Christmas plus hunting gear.
Motherdear:
I would rather eat that burnt iron than some of your mother's (gramma's) cooking...
Callie, we had an old oven in our first house that set off the fire alarm every single time Wifeypooh cooked something. It was an old Whirlpool oven from 1950 or so. Damn thing still worked but something about it set off the fire alarm. Nothing was ever burnt, but the fire alarm went off nonetheless. Maybe that's what'
s going on here?
And Lowk: your wife makes you a special lunch???? Ye Gods. I always end up playing leftover roulette and taking my chances with whatever's in the fridge...
What a woman.
Kal -
we had an old Norge at our former house that used to do that. I have a feeling it was probably carbon monoxide. Probably not the best thing in the world. LOL - but I loved that old stove.
And don't you go thinking Lowk is so lucky. Normally, he plays the leftover roulette, as well. But it just so happened that we didn't have any leftovers that night, and no money in the bank account, so I had to fix him SOMETHING.
Callie when you do burn something and LOWK laughs...just tell him you "BLACKENED It" like the CAJUNS do in LA and charge him extra for it...
What is wrong with swearing like a sailor when the alarm goes off? Just another fire drill...........
