Anyway, I checked Amazon and they have a big selection if you’re interested.

I know the contest is over, but I thought I’d chip in my latest cooking disaster: I put some chicken on the stove with water to simmer and cook while I put the kids down for naps. I turned the stove up to high to bring it to a boil, thinking I would turn down the heat before I put the kids down. An hour later, having just gotten a stubborn 2 year old to finally go to sleep, I thought I smelled something burning. I emerged from her room to a smoke filled house, burned chicken and a black pan. Luckily the smoke alarm didn’t go off. I was also able to scrape the burn off the bottom of the chicken and salvage the rest for dinner!

My cooking disasters . . . Oh my! I’ve been cooking gluten-free for 12 years now because my son is allergic to gluten. So most of my disasters have to do with food that’s really hard to prepare. I have to cook with things like xantham gum. One of my kids spilled the xantham gum once then dumped water on top. It’s so slippery I had to crawl across the floor to clean it up. I couldn’t stand up at all until I got every bit cleaned up.
