AHEM!

Just as a reminder. Sometimes we suck at cooking. In the last two weeks, I have:

- Badly cut my finger right before a dinner party while chopping things. (And then our guests arrived, and then the coat rack fell off the wall, and then my bandage fell off, and then the chicken was dry...)
- Tried to boil water. But forgot to put water in the pan.
- Tried to make coffee. But forgot the filter.
- Made some squash go on fire. Fortunately, we don't have a smoke alarm in our apartment in der Schweiz?
- Made some food that kind of sucked.
- Bought a carrot at the market and said "ein Karotte!" and was corrected with "einE Karotte." That's less a cooking fail and more a stupid-German-with-their-gendered-nouns-fail

WE CAN'T WIN EVERYTHING. HAPPY PRETHANKSGIVING WEEK.
