Last night I made homemade granola. OMG!! It's worth making if only for the smell. I'll post the recipe in a bit. I cook really awesome things like this and it makes me want to say, "Suck it, stay at home moms!"
But then I'm immediately put in my place with my next project....
I also thought it would be cool to make some homemade apple butter to go with the breakfast foods I'm making this weekend.... FAIL. The recipe is easy enough. You pretty much just cut up a bunch of apples and place them all in the crockpot with a bunch of sugar and spices. How could someone possibly screw that up, right?
Well, not only did I screw it up but I almost burned down our house in the process. I acidentally left the crockpot on high (it was only supposed to cook for an hour on high, then cook on low for 9-11 hours). Good thing the cleaning lady came today and saw that there was about to be a fire in my kitchen. OOPS! And now instead of coming home to the delicious smell of warm apple butter, I get to come home to the smell of charred apples. Awesome.
That's what I get for trying to be super mom.
Once I actually get the recipe right, I'll post it.
