I can say I've made just about all these mistakes and more. Sometimes it's just the kitchen goddess having her way with us. My favorite two are: the well done Thermapen. All I could see there was $$$$ going up in smoke. For most of us, Thermapen is a luxury kitchen item. In the same photo, however, joy. Your oven is almost as cruddy as mine! I thought you pros had minions who came in every night and rendered all the equipment sparkling and shiny. Thank you for being, in more ways than one, REAL. Blunder on!!
