Date Night…

*zzz*

 

*zzz*

 

*INCREDIBLY JARRING BEEPING NOISE*

 

*stabs smoke detector*  Lousy rotten smoke alarm, goin’ off when there’s nothing to worry about but boiling water and *mutter mutter mumble mumble*

 

 

It’s date night, and that means that I have been cooking since roughly two o’clock.  Meatloaf—my famous bacon-wrapped meatloaf, though the thick cut bacon makes things complicated.  I had to finish the thing in the broiler because thick cut bacon doesn’t like to crisp in the oven when it’s wrapped around a juicy, juicy meatloaf.

 

My head’s pounding, and it took so long to cook this thing through (three hours whut) that I was able to take a nap during the entire thing.

 

Not posting pictures of this one.  It came out tasty, but it did NOT come out pretty enough for me to take shots.

 

…also I don’t have the foggiest idea where my camera batteries are.  XD

 

I’m conscious for a little while at least, while I wait for him to show up.  Once it’s cooled off a tad, I get to make a side dish.  Cheese sticks.

 

…what?  I just spent that much time with the oven on in summer with a smoke alarm that does the proverbial “shouting fire in a crowded theater” thing.  I can make lazy side dishes if I damn well please sirs and madams!
