good idea.. bad idea

[curgoth]

good ideas:

• making beef barley soup


• making baked apples


• putting both in covered containers


• reducing the leftover liquid form the baked apples to a syrup

bad idea:

• reducing the syrup in a pyrex pan, thinking that frequent stirring and moving of the pan would be enough to keep the pan from exploding. I'd like to blame alcohol for this decision, but I suspect I would have mde the same call sober. Now, to find out where that blood is coming from while I wait for the glass to cool enough to dispose of.

almost a good boyfriend...

(edit: no glass seems to be embedded anywhere on my body, so no injuries are serious, except to the pan.)

yikes!
glad to hear the only casualty was the pyrex pan. next time, use a metal pan *grin*

The dumbest part is that it *did* occur to me to pull out a saucepan to reduce it in, but I figured I'd save another dish to wash this way... which, in a way, I did, I suppose.

I did this once, too, like a year and a half ago. Not one of my brighter moments to be sure.
