"This potato is as hard as a rock!"

Well, we experienced a first in our marriage last night. We epically failed at dinner. Usually everything goes great, but last night we attempted to make something that we never have before. Word to the wise...don't ever cook something you never have before on a Sunday! We decided we would try to cook steak and baked potatoes. Our first mistake was that we forgot to get charcoal for our barbecue, so we ended up having to cook the steaks on the stove...that made them extremely dry with basically no flavor. :( Then it was my first time ever making baked potatoes ( I know you are probably thinking "seriously!?", but it's true.) I followed all of the directions and everything, but then they came out of the oven and they were still rock hard. The one thing that went right was the canned green beans because well you have to try pretty hard to botch a can of green beans! We had a good laugh over that meal haha. It was fun to completely ruin a meal together :) P.S. Sorry i'm doing Valentines a little early, but I was sick of the blue background! :)

  1. This is so sad!!! I know a really good way to cook a steak inside in the winter (and I microwave my "baked" potatoes... impossible to fail), so let me know if you ever want some pointers :)
