Supper usually turns out best if the chef pays attention to it. In other words, that is not the best time to try to write a blog post. Somehow, multi-tasking during supper preparations doesn't work well if the other task is on the other side of the house, involves sitting down, and concentrating on something else.
Oddly enough, I had just been telling my 15 yo three nights ago that cooking isn't difficult if you do two things: follow directions, and pay attention to the meal. Don't get distracted.
Unfortunately, this week she saw what happens when you don't pay attention -- scorched
charcoal sausage links. They make nice teething sticks for the baby, though. Very flavorful! I bet the puppy would like it, too. The children were not so inclined to gnaw at them.
