I went up to the farmer’s market the other day to pick up peanuts – $64 for a 50 pound bag – and got some rhubarb at the same time. Last night, I made up a rhubarb and strawberry pie, with a crunch top.
It looked and smelled heavenly but I realized, when I opened the oven door, that the cookie sheet I intended to put under it was still sitting on the kitchen counter.
Talk about a royal mess!
I went over to knitting this morning, and when I came home The Squire had cleaned up the mess I’d left behind. We had pie for dinner, and it was well worth the hassle.
A self cleaning oven is needed!
That mess was too much for even the self-cleaning feature to work. It was about a quarter inch thick! After it cooled little bit, The Squire was able to sort of peel it off.
Rhubarb is like coathangers. It multiplies.
The Squire is most helpful 😊
