Aww. I went to take the pork roast out of the oven just a moment ago, and half the dish stayed in my hand while the other half stayed in the oven.
At least there was no meat-juice-spillage, because I always double up on the foil. But still, I’m a bit sad. This was a pretty damn good baking dish. Used at least three times a week for at least five years, and damn if I didn’t keep it pretty clean. What about all that burned on oook? It’s due to HIM not washing it before using it again. Usually to make me breakfast. Ugh, how do you balance bitching with gratitude?
Best thing? I wasn’t the last to wash it before it exploded. BOOYAH motherfucker, I won’t have to scrape burned grease off of you ever again.
gotta love a girl who talks to her kitchen tools! >:-D
Usually it involves cursing 🙂
oooo, something like: you feicin’ glarblesnitch??!! hahahahha!
I believe it was, ‘Oh, shit! Oh no! Oh shiiiit! Sweetie, the pan broke! How the fuck am I supposed to get the meat out now?’
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo so wrong. I haz a sad.
Hubby sees this as the perfect excuse to go shopping. I wonder about him.
LOL I like your hubby.
When things like that happen I typically stand there speechless and drained of cognitive capacity, as if I have just burst through into a new dimension. I can’t imagine what I would do without some of my household impedimenta. I still miss a borosilicate kettle that bit the dino in the early 1980s.
I don’t have much that is good quality – but I love my French whisk for scrambling eggs and mixing Cambell’s mushroom soup (add water a bit at a time? Ha! Dump it in! Even better, use milk). I have an ancient cracked Tupperware colander I adore while ignoring the pretty stainless steel one. I had a favourite dollar-store knife that I still mourn. Handle cracked 😦
😦 But think of the cost per use ration on that baby, must be into the tenths of a penny!
Got it at TK MAXX, worth about €60, paid about €25. As above, hubby now wants to go shopping there again as they usually have a good selection of Le Creuset. And he cares about brands. Meh.
We have tested ‘quality’ and it smashes along with the best of the lot! Even the damned cast iron (floor cracks too).
Oh no! We have one Le Creuset cast-iron frying pan. I gave up on the non-stick part years ago and razor-bladed it off. It’s a bit sticky for some food, but seasoning with oil when washed seems to help.
Our kitchen floor is wood that just looks like slate – what a hole dropping that beast would make!
This is a sad, sad, very sad moment. 😦
Let’s all just take a moment to be silence.
I love my oven-thing!
Luckily we had just bought another, as I am getting bad about washing dishes and it was always dirty when needed. New one is an American brand and not French, bet it doesn’t last as long.
You never know!
And it’s smaller, and oval. Not ideal.
Oh, Oval isn’t ideal. 😦
