About that oven…

Posted on August 31, 2006 By pamela

cupSo… remember that sparkling clean oven I had just a few nights ago?  Well… it’s not any longer. As if to reenact the barbecue effect in the kitchen tonight, I dumped the contents of pecan pie bars on the oven floor.  So, that’s why the oven is no longer sparkling clean.  And why there’s a semi-melted plastic garbage sack full of burnt offerings out in the tall can.

Clean ovens: Vanity of vanities… all is vanity.

quoteI have seen all the works that are done under the sun;
and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit.”
Ecclesiastes 1.14

    You know what? I always seem to make pizza, with lots of extra cheese on top, the day after I clean my oven. You know what happens with the extra cheese. As you said, vanity of vanities….
