Haiku...

This weeks Haiku contest is being hosted by Boxer at Anonymous Boxer. The theme is Smoke and by now the winner has probably been picked. Anyways here's my submission without visuals. **visual added late** Thanks Rafa for the help!

Smoke billowing through the house.
Who wants some take out?!

    I loved your Haiku. I'm the person who can burn a pan of boiling eggs. For reals. Luckily, my Mister is good at it.

    Thank you for playing this week and I like your blog! :-)

      Hi Boxer!!

      Thanks, I'm glad you like the blog. Great job hosting this week & thank you for stepping up.

      I was the youngest in a house full so I was left at home with Grandma Alice a lot. She taught my mother (her daughter in-law) to cook and she taught me. No one in the family has a chance when Mom & I get together!!

    Reminds me of the Palais every time I attempt to cook toast. Never fails to set off the fire alarms! I've taken to making toast with the doors and windows open!

      Hi Princess!!

      In all my life I've only ever set off a smoke alarm once, and that was from a pie overflowing in the oven. Watch now my alarms will go off...

      Thanks Becca.

      Would have been better had I had some visuals. Lucky for me Rafa has come to my rescue! It's too late for judgement but who cares!

    CoreyJo:

    I still remember my first attempt at cooking...not good. I didn't burn down the house, but my tummy would have preferred my ass getting tanned for a fire mishap than itself having to stomach what I had just prepared. (no one told me I had to boil the lasagna noodles BEFORE layering them for baking!).

    With my capacity to burn fuel, I learned pretty quick; it's cook or go broke!

    SMILES--

      Rafa!!

      Oh your poor stomach! Too bad they didn't have the no-boil noodles back then like they have now! FYI: I'm being told by the sister in-law that if you add enough sauce and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours then you can use the regular noodles with out boiling....so she says.

      Thanks for the visual! I'll be posting it promptly!

      Rafa,

      Whatever works!! I like the no-boil noodles.

      p.s. we're starting to sound like a sad housewife with the woe is me stuff. Better watch out or you'll find yourself on coffee dates with other moms!! LOL
