A Week (or two) of Failures

Baked..

What I got. Burnt teeny tiny turds.

                                       

I didn’t even take a picture of the “after.” They were shriveled little nothings that broke in half if looked at too long, practically disintegrating in the air!

Another night I thought I’d make baked butternut squash fries.

Lookin’ good!

The after? A pile of mush. MUSH. They just did not hold shape.

Another night… baked zucchini sticks. These weren’t horrible. The Hubby and Gwyn still ate these, but
I think they were just being nice. They weren’t crispy at all. Soft, breaded zucchini chunks. Gag.

“Hey, why not throw some corn into Gwyn’s pancakes?” I thought one morning. She loves pancakes, she loves corn…. seemed like a brilliant idea.

Gwyn picked out all the corn and said, “More pancakes, please Mama. No corn, please!”

 

Oh, then I treated The Hubby to burnt flautas two nights later.  Lucky guy, eh!?

And the third meal this week? Leftover “refrigerator” pizza. The chicken from the flautas was actually really tasty, so I threw it on a pizza along with every other leftover veggie we had. The Fam actually liked this one, so I suppose the entire week wasn’t a bust.

So far this week has gotten two BIG thumbs up from both The Hubby and The Toddler. Let’s hope it continues! I’ll share “A Week of Wins” soon!
