Am I aleady getting forgettful in my old age? All I can say is I just forgot. I made banana bread yesterday after work around 6pm. When the timer went off they still needed a couple more minutes. I honestly feel like I set the timer again so I wouldn't forget to take them out before I left for my girls' group. But around 9:30pm, Brooke said something that made me think of food and I remembered then. I called Josh to turn the oven off and take them out. I can't even begin to tell you how upset and STUPID I felt. Then I felt even more upset that I was crying about it. No big deal, so I burned some bread, it's not the end of the world. But I still feel pretty dumb. Praise the Lord my townhouse didn't catch on fire.
I called my mother to vent and I always feel better when I talk to my mommy. She reminded me of the time when she turned the oven off on a Thanksgiving when we had over 20 people at our house for dinner. We had to call around Dayton to find a turkey to feed 20 people. She assured me that everyone has a duh moment when cooking, except for Gammie (her mother). She doesn't think Gammie has ever had a duh moment while cooking.
Oh, and my two pans are still soaking in my sink. What can I say? I just plum forgot.
Ah, poor banana bread. Oh, well- some like it crispy!
ReplyDeleteWE ALL have these times & I'll bet Gammie had them too-maybe would never admit it, but SHE DID. We are all TOO stressed and too busy!
