What can I say . . . I am a genius

Well, I like to cook and bake and usually Sunday is the only day that I do that. Today for dinner I went with Sesame Honey Butter chicken. It turned out great! Diego loved it and so did I. As the chicken was cooking in the oven some drippings spilled on the burner and made the house stink a little. So, after Diego was in bed I thought I would surprise him by making peanut butter cookies. (it would serve a double purpose because I was trying to rid my house of the smell.) So I put the cookies in the oven and went about my life. Little did I realize that I did not pay attention to the fact that the oven was set on broil still from dinner. I caught the cookies on fire and my house immediately filled with smoke. Diego was sleeping and surprisingly slept through the smoke detector and the funky smell. I am now freezing my toucous off trying to rid my house of smoke while the burning cookies are on the porch. So much for a lovely smell in my home. Oh well, I thought somebody might get a kick out of it.
