Thats the Good Stuff!

Every night in Apt. 242 there lives a boy and a girl who attempt to make dinner for one another (that is, when their schedules permit them to be together for dinner). Tonight we teamed up creating another typical dinner at the Mills'!!

Stephanie, just so you know, I finally made Josh a baked potato and he said it was better than the Outback potato.

We had both decided that just a potato and some corn was not enough for dinner, so we decided to open a couple of cans of croissants. Easy enough, right? NO!! Those cans were super hard to open!! Look how hard Josh is twisting.....come to find out he hadn't even ripped the paper off yet! Smart grad student, eh?

Me, being the "homemaker" that I am decided to spray the cookie sheet with Pam (so they wouldn't stick) and put the croissants in the oven. I did set the timer because I didn't want to burn them. Josh went to check on them because the oven had made a weird popping noise. To our surprise they were charcoal black!! At that very moment I realized that the instructions on the can say "Do not spray!!" Now we know why.


Josh, being the country music lover that he is started singing Kenny Chessney's song "The Good Stuff." He kept repeating the part where it says, "eating burnt suppers the whole first year and asking for seconds just to keep Jay from tearing up." He actually ate three of those burnt chicken rolls and even cut the bottom off of one for me to eat. Maybe one night we will have a perfect meal....but whats the fun in that?

Yep, I learned that lesson the hard way too! But I set the timer and when I checked on them they were already burnt!! We always cut off the burnt stuff!
