- You want hills? We got hills
Went out for a bike ride yesterday, leaving Son #2 on his own at home. He's 14
Son #2 "I fancy cheese on toast, how do I work the grill?" (we have a new kitchen with a new grill/oven thingy so that was a reasonable question)
Me: "blah, blah, blah.....see you in a couple of hours. Call me if you need anything"
Got home to find cheese on toast in the bin. And bits of cheese on the worksurfaces. Had a look around then I realised what had happened.
He'd got the grill thingy to work fine and loaded up the cheese on the bread.....but he didn't realise he had to toast the bread first. So ingenious person he is, he thought that the sensible thing to do would be to stick the bread (now with melted cheese on it) in the toaster. In it went. And out came the melted cheese, dripping out of the bottom of the toaster.
Result: Cheese on toast without much cheese left on it.....and a toaster full of melted orange goo
