Out!


Blog 75 …

When you know you are not in your locational element, you best get out.  Yes, you should not meddle in an area with which you’re not familiar, such as in the kitchen and stuff that go with it or making Curry Dinner, in another instance.  You would not want to intrude in someone else’s expertise preparing that delicate taste of Asian-originating cuisine like I did.  Bent on becoming helpful, I peeled and then diced potatoes and onions to prep for the recipe.  I also filleted the already almost fallen apart chicken breast after its all-morning and low-fire cooking in a crockpot.  I even decided to start boiling altogether the ingredients, except for the coconut milk to make steps less before its final seasoning and garnishing with raisins and peanuts is done by the more experienced cook in the household.  My mouth had begun salivating for the scrumptious end result as I for one minute decidedly stepped out of the kitchen and out the front yard.  I thought no harm to picking up the day’s mail.  I convinced myself everything would be well done and ready when I get back shortly, but what a disaster instead.  The pot of ingredients on the stove was smoking when I got back!  Curried dinner was instantly ruined because I had turned the stove knob in full heat instead of low heat.  What a shame.  What a waste of food, time and energy.  It would have been better had I stayed OUT … out of my element … out of the kitchen!
