Pan Sauce Disaster
Do you ever have those moments where you want to scream "are you freaking kidding me?". I had one of those yesterday. The day had gone pretty well, Mikey had taken a nap that morning so things were peachy, but it was about 6pm so he was starting to meltdown. I made dinner, and it wasnt one of those throw together dinners, this one took some preparation. To give you an idea of what I mean, I made chicken with an onion thyme pan sauce- dont worry it is better than it sounds. The chicken was done, the sides were done, the table was set, and I had put everything in the oven to stay warm while I finished up the sauce and waited for brian. I finished the sauce and let me just say it was perfect, probably the best one ever, I put it in a pyrex measuring cup (cause I'm ghetto that way) and put it in the oven to keep warm. By this time Mikey was getting ticked, it was about 6:45 or so and he wanted to go to bed (remember the morning nap, well there wasnt an evening one). As Brian walked in I went to the oven to get everything out, i succeeded in getting everything out... except... yes the delicious sauce which poured out all over the oven, yes all 2 cups of it. I just stood there with my hands over my mouth, I wanted to scream "are you freaking kidding me?" at that point and hit something, but I didnt, mostly because I was frozen in place. Brian cleaned it up, cause he is a nice husband (what a great thing to come home to). I ended up throwing another sauce together quickly, it wasnt as good, but it was good, and hey I guess my oven is clean now. I think the moral of the story is that we should eat cereal for dinner (which we have yet to do), and forget having dinners that need to be warmed and can spill...
