A Father's Day Comedy of Errors
Jun. 19th, 2006 10:09 amThey loved the dinner despite the problems:
- I used garlic chives instead of garlic powder, and I put too much buttermilk into the biscuits, making them come out flat.
- The cauliflower needed 13 minutes to cook in the microwave.
- While melting chocolate for the lava cakes in the microwave, the bowl broke, along with 14oz of sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate. I ran out to the store and blew a wad on a similar bowl, only this one by Anchor Hocking, and on 14oz of sugar-free semi-sweet chocolate (that wasn't on sale...sigh).
- The lava cake recipe made way more than the ten it said it would. I don't know what they consider "muffin sized" tins. I used standard cupcake tins and wound up with eighteen of them. Luckily, Warren's father had two.
