Ask my sister, she knows!!
(Hi Woot....)
Mainly I just burn the heck out the english muffins!
I have good intentions.
I am seriously planning to concentrate this time; I really am, but soon I notice that the broiling is going awfully slowly.
What a waste of time just standing here!
I start to do something else, BUT WAIT A MINUTE!
I cannot leave the broiler, cuz I always burn the muffins.
Always.
So I stay by the oven, but the muffins are still pale...it's taking much longer than I thought.
I could quickly dash to make the bed, yes, that would be perfect timing. I'll be back just in time for perfect golden english muffins. Off I go to make the bed quick like a bunny... I'm in the bedroom; I'm making the bed.
But look at the shoes scattered all over the room.
I could just really quickly put all the shoes in the closet...and rush to put away the mess on the bathroom counter: brushes, toothbrushes, lotions, jewelry, razors...
UH, OH.....
THE MUFFINS!!!
Run, run, run....OH, PHOOOEY!! NOT AGAIN!!
Same old story!
...grab the hot pad, slam open the oven door, grab the pan, dash to the front door! FLING the black smoking muffins onto the front lawn before the smoke alarm goes off!!!! Darn. I guess the dogs will eat them. They always do.
Could it be déjà vu?
Man, I hope it's just a recurring bad dream....and I'm sleeping in late.

what on EARTH is that a picture of?!
and you make it sound like you are doing massive amounts of housework when burning the muffins... usually you are making the rest of the eggs benedict, right there in the same room with the freaking muffins!
thank goodness for the toast oven. auto turn off! although, why not just set a timer on the reg oven?
Thanks, Jessaminit!
Good idea, the timer, I've even tried it. Poach the eggs in the interim. The timer goes off. The muffins are ALMOST done, they'll be done in ONE MINUTE!! Who needs a timer for 1 minute?
Not me, obviously.
I'll just quickly check the eggs...
I almost burned down the house JUST the other DAY, making yummmmmmmPANCAKES! Put em in the gawl darned pan, went to write ONE LETTER to the Planning Dept. to STOP the neighbors from building a THREE STORY house (as a tree came crashing down on their ONE story house about 8 months ago and we have been looking at that BRIGHT BLUE tarp over their roof for ENTIRELY too long!) and so wrote the letter, did a little editing, and beep beep beep beep beep off went the alarm AGAIN, how alarming! put the pan (my favorite pan i might add) out on the rained on deck with the COMPLETELY BLACK AND ALMOST ON FIRE pancakes! so there QUICK flip on the fans to blow the smoke OUT and open ALL the doors and windows...........thank goodness the batteries haven't died on THAT (one and only) smoke alarm in the house!...... JOVANA! get a timer and WEAR IT AROUND YOUR NECK, then go make the bed, clean the toilet, dust, or put the shoes away, and your timer will tell you or better yet, get a "stun" timer, that ZAPS you back to reality! tee hee xoxo
