Glass Pizza

{via}


An Ode to Wifery

The other night I decided to make one of our favorite dinners.
Grilled Chicken Pesto Pizza.
Easy. Simple. Done.
I could make it with one hand tied behind my back.
Blindfolded. Earplugs. It's a gift, really.

{However}
I'm clumsy.
The summer I grew 4 inches ruined me for all eternity.

So.
I tripped and dropped the jar of pesto.
No worries. I salvaged about 99% of it.
Out of the broken jar. Onto the dough. Into the oven.

{However}
My street-smarts weren't quite up to par that day.

Two hours later, we were crunching on some pizza.
Literally. Crunching. Tiny. Glass. Shards.
I can barely keep a plant alive.
Now, I'm barely keeping my husband alive.
Oh. Woe is me.


Happy Kitchen Adventures to you (and me)!

xoxo

OMG...that sounds like something I would do! I once accidently dropped whole bottle of oregano into veggies and tried to feed it to my hubby like nothing was wrong! Sick! The pizza does look really good!

Bahahaha! So funny. I'm incredibly clumsy too. The other night I dropped my freshly baked HOMEMADE chicken pot pie all over the floor. My hubs came home to a pot pie covered wife...very sad...and no supper.

Oh kitchen adventures!
