i screwed up...


...and I am truly sorry. I know swithart understood and has forgiven me right after it happened. Hehe... See, I made a 99.9% wrong move when I let the lid of the tupperware container got into the oven under a 350 degrees Fahrenheit heat. Imagine that? It's because I really really thought it was alright since the plastic stated it is oven safe. And also, I have used the main container once when I baked a banana bread under the same temperature, but was without the lid. And this time around, it was just the lid that I used because we weren't able to find the baking plate and pan that we have. Arggghhhh! So this is what we enjoyed doing this afternoon:

Yes, we tried making a bread "our version", which is based solely on my tastebuds. Swithart diligently mixed the ingredients and all I did was just instructed him on what to do. I did the measuring and all, which again, is based on how I would like the taste to be. I missed Filipino taste of breads so much that I have thought of making some today. We used to make this kind when I was still pregnant because I craved for a pandesal real bad and I just tried following what my baker Kuya instructed me on what to do.

I tell you, Triz enjoyed helping dadi did the mixing and she has a stuff in her hand that she loved rolling and making keeping her hands real busy. When it was time to put it in the oven, we couldn't find the two other pans we have for bread and I kept on thinking what best way to bake it without the pan. I experimented it using just an aluminum foil and a baking paper but one fold was enough to fill the upper layer and we still have some more without pans. And so that was when I decided to use the tupperware lid wrapped with an aluminum foil still. Swithart insisted not to because it will melt, but I argued it will be fine. And yeah, I was too rebellious and self-righteous [LOL], and persistent and insistent! Started turning the oven on at 350 degrees F, and ater 15 minutes or so, swithart called me and suggested to see what happened. But before that, I already have smelled something bad that's burning coming from the kitchen. I was thankful the security alarm wasn't on earlier, if it was, 911 could have came and checked us out. The plastic lid burned and melted, producing a bad amount of smoke in the kitchen, and bad burning smell. I was horrified and so guilty, believe me, and I guess my looks said it all that swithart came behind me and pat my shoulders assuring me that I am fine without me having said I was sorry. Hah, so bad I was, and I screwed up terribly!

I don't know if you could guess what happened to the bread which were halfway done and smelling good when taken out of the oven because swithart has to clean the inside of the oven first. Jon said it wasn't good to eat it after it was blended with plastic smokes but I insisted it's just okay. There I was again, being too insistent. But you tell what happened: did we discontinue baking it or did we pushed it through till it was good enough to eat. What happened was, we voted to either throw it or continue baking it. LOL And if anybody could guess what took place and confident enough to comment it here, I would then reveal it! Hehe...

  2. I agree with your husband. I don't think that bread will be safe to eat since it surely got some toxins from the melting plastic. You should go to the nearest store and get some bread pans. :)

  3. oh wow, what a big job that may have been: cleaning up the oven of melted plastic.

    if I were to make a guess, you threw all the bread er...dough. it is un safe to eat being that the melted plastic emitted some chemicals na.
