Baking involves a lot of waiting...
There's a lot of work in the beginning
but then, you put it in the oven
and wait...
and wait...
and then after that
you wait some more...
Its easy to get distracted sometimes.
Today, I was sucked into a black hole phone conversation
There is no way out of a black hole conversation
In the chaos and confusion, you lose all sense of time and place
And you forget about everything in your struggle not to implode in frustration
Well, after I emerged from this most recent black hole
I realized that I had been ignoring a burning smell,
and my alarm that had been going off every 5 minutes,
I had overcooked my muffins by 40 minutes...
When I finally pulled them out of the oven, they were all charred
all sign of the sweetness of life had been snuffed out
My negligence resulted in their tragic premature demise...
I should have just hung-up at the first sign of crazy nonsensical logic
This is where I draw the line. NEVER AGAIN!
You can take away my peace and sanity,
but leave my poor muffins be!!!
My poor muffins :'(
