When dinner attacks
Sep. 16th, 2008 05:53 pmWell, that was ... more excitement than I generally want in my kitchen. Lifted a pan of boiling pasta off the stove to drain off the water, and the cheap plastic handle broke right off! I jumped back fast enough to avoid being scalded (you should have seen me jump back!) and water and pasta went all over the whole kitchen floor. Well, it needed to be washed anyway. And I'm still hungry, damn it.
This is in keeping with today's general theme, which is me accidentally breaking things. ^^;; I worked on "Chickenhouse Extreme Makeover" today, i.e. ripping out the old perches (which aren't particularly chicken-ergonomic) and putting in new ones -- I got the top perch all screwed to the wall (a much longer process than it sounds like when I type it), leaned on it to test its structural integrity and snapped it right in half. I suppose it's better to find out now than to have a chicken-related disaster in the middle of the night, but STILL.
