and 2 pans went to the dump.

OH has managed the impossible by burning water :-S

My sister is the only person I know who used to constantly burn boiled eggs :-S

If she mentions she's had a boiled egg - I (naturally) ask how many pans has she burnt and how many eggs did it take to 'create' one boiled egg!

It seems that culinary thromboses are more common than expected ;-)

Barbra, perhaps that should be tongue-n-cheek as beef cheeks are great done in the pressure cooker :-D :-D

I once put the water and stuff in the bread maker pan and the flour straight into the machine while the pan was waiting by the sink.

Last Christmas morning, I put the turkey in the oven & went to the pub for a few pints.

Returned home at 2pm anticipating a nice turkey dinner.

I opened the oven door & there stood the turkey in the middle of the roasting tin.

He was in a bit of a huff! "Either light the bloody gas or give me my feathers - it's freezing in here"!

Easy to diagnose, LaGooner, by the number of burnt pans, raw tongues etc ;-) :-D :-D

Yesterday morning after finishing my daily visit to this site I headed for the kitchen to prepare an ox-tongue for cooking.

Got out the pressure cooker (electric), rinsed the tongue and roughly chopped a couple of onions, a couple of carrots and a couple of sticks of celery.

Duly put all the ingredients into the 'inner' insert of the pressure cooker, set the menu and timer and walked away feeling proud of myself.

A few minutes later I had to go back into the kitchen when I noticed that the inner container of the PC, which I had lovingly prepared, was still sitting on the work bench.

I had forgotten to put the bl**dy thing in the cooker.
