Boy, I sure am spamming everyone's friends lists today... Many sorries! I'll make for it by not posting at all on the 25. (That's the day I go back to school, so I wouldn't be posting anyway. ^_~)
Anyway, in case anyone was curious, I did end up making dinner tonight. I learned the following:
---While I have set my hair on fire using a toaster oven, not even I can botch up salad.
---Ham is the easiest meat in the world to prepare. This, of course, means that I'm going to be eating a lot more ham in the future. ^^
---When the direction for cheesy biscuits says to use a teaspoon of something, ONLY USE A TEASPOON. This realization is directly related to the next one:
---The use of garlic, which is fun in small amounts, should be strictly regulated. However, should a mishap using said spice occur, mixing in melted butter can sometimes take out a lot of the sharp flavor.
---Baking mix and flour can be used interchangeably.
---You should never, under any circumstances, touch a hot oven. On a similar note, oven mitts should always be worn while taking things out of the oven. *whimpers and nurses her burnt fingers*
That's all. ^_^
On a totally different note, the bratling wormbaby of doom stayed after school for play tryouts today and made callbacks. Huzzah for the wormbaby! Anyway, I read over his script synopsis and burst out laughing. Can you see why?
"Pom-Pom Monsters", by Stephen Murray, is a sci-fi spoof of the beach blanket flicks of the 1960's. School's out for the summer and the teenagers from Ocean View High are ready to surf, sun and have some fun. Their favorite hang-out is Barnacle Betty's Beach Club which is right next door to a nuclear power plant. When one of the cheerleaders accidentally gets some nuclear slime on her hot-dog instead of relish, the beach gets overrun with pom-pom weilding monsters!!! It takes some football players, beatniks, a tough girl gang called the Barracudas and some brainy nerds to rally their forces and save the beach from the atomic attackers.
