Burnt

Burnt to a crisp.... I'm actually glad the rice did not catch on fire!!

I simply put rice on to cook.... and waited while the water kettle boiled.... meanwhile the rice burnt badly. I was distracted by facebook... hmmm... a lesson here....

The bottom of my favorite glass top pan had a horrible layer of burnt rice.

My WONDERFUL husband came home and simply picked up the pan and started the arduous task of cleaning it.

I must say... He did not walk in and ask if that smell was dinner! He did not fuss at me. He did not complain. He did not scold me when I said that pan should be thrown away. He saw my mess and worked on it!!! Oh, I am loved!!!!!!!!

After scrubbing made no impact... even after the near oven cleaner stuff... he finally made progress with SAND PAPER!!! Oh, gracious!!! Even that took much time and effort.

Hours later I have candles lit to eliminate the stench!!

Now, my charred pot is clean.... I'm thankful for a loving husband!!

That was Agape love!! Grace! ss

Facebook has the same effect on me, minus the burning rice. :-)

Yay for your hubby.

So, what does 123 stand for? Or is it a secret? We sometimes do 143 which is I love you.

A rice cooker would solve that problem, you know. . . Which is precisely the reason I have one. A few years ago we even upgraded to a model similar to what you see at the Chinese buffet. I love it! I can just put the rice in there with the appropriate amount of water and walk away. It's like a crockpot for rice. Saves me many times, especially when I need dinner to cook without me (like on ballet evenings).

You can scrape out what you can then put water in at least an inch over the food and put on to boil. When it starts bubbling gently scrape the bottom of the pot with a rubber spatula. Works every time!
