I Can't Be Trusted

The toaster oven and I are not friends. Lately it seems as though whenever I put something involving a piece of bread in the toaster oven I burn it. Last week I prepped some pretty awesome looking garlic bread, complete with butter I made flavored with Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese, popped it in the toaster oven, turned on the broil, then next thing I knew it was burnt. Sigh...

Today I was heating up a left-over pasta dish for lunch and thought I would make some toast to go with it. I ended up burning THREE pieces of bread. Evidently toast is a very difficult food to make. .

I guess I just cannot be trusted with a complicated kitchen appliance like a Toaster Oven.

This whole disorder may or may not have something in common with the fact that I almost always burned one side of the kids' grilled cheese sandwiches when they were growing up

Oh, come on. Part of my childhood memories include burnt toast AND the sound of scraping the burnt stuff with a knife into the sink! (And yes, I've had my share of burning the grilled cheese sandwiches...)

maybe you should just use a regular toaster?
