Gord saves the bacon!

At 4:25 this afternoon I had the brilliant idea to call home and have Adam put the meat in the oven to cook.

So I called but I reached Another Person, one with a cute voice that makes me want to squeal. Anyway, this person will remain nameless. I told him/her to look in the bottom drawer of the refrig. for some meat in a Ziplock bag. He/she says "yep, I've got it." So I give instructions to put it in the oven but the biiiiig pizza stone is in there and it's too heavy for this person to handle. So I suggest getting Adam to call me and I will tell him what to do with the meat.

Adam calls, I tell him the baking pan to use and the temperature (325), the time was 4:27 and the meat will be just sizzling to the finish line when I walk in the door.

Except.

It was not the meat I "thought" was in the drawer, it was the hambone from New Years Eve. It was cooking away in the oven when Gordie came home at 5pm. Gord was able to do a Full Rescue of the meat, pork chops and it was a blazing success.

What was actually in the oven:



What should have been in the oven:


Never a dull moment!!
