A small snag

March 3, 2009 by Lauren 17 Comments

Rachel, I didn’t forget about the pans I promised. I just can’t seem to find the time to get them to the post office when it’s open. Plus…… I don’t know if I can get them away from a certain you-know-who.

What are you looking at?

Is anybody else surprised that it’s not Friday yet? It should really be Friday.

Really.

A good day.

February 17, 2009 by Lauren 10 Comments

It was a very nice day all around. The preschoolers were incredibly busy and productive during the morning, and right before lunchtime, we had a little surprise! Some singers from Lincoln Lutheran stopped by to deliver a singing telegram to them (and some candy for me) from Lloyd, which stunned and amazed the children. They couldn’t come on Friday because of the snow day, and they had Monday off for Presidents’ Day. Beth & Brad’s niece Rachel was among the group! Afterwards, the children were all abuzz at how tall those big kids were, and how they knew ‘our song’ (You are my sunshine)! I didn’t have the presence of mind to take a photo when the singers were there, but I had the preschoolers draw our thanks, and Lloyd will deliver them.

Cricket has been rather needy lately.

In other news, we heard back from the good people at Baker’s Edge! They are fabulous! I quote, without their permission:

Hi Lauren,

It’s been said that a picture is worth a thousand words. I don’t know whether or not that’s actually true, but in this case, yours is worth a free spatula. Maybe two. (We loved the pic.) If you’ll email me your postal address, I’ll wrap a few up and send them your way.

FYI, we’ve broken that spatula ourselves. We couldn’t get our supplier to improve it, so we’re now in the spatula business too. (At this pace, we’ll take over the world of consumer products in just a few hundred centuries!!) We’ve designed a new spatula made of flexible nylon… it’s a perfect fit for the pan, and I think you’ll find it’s a much better tool.

Fortunately, you won’t have to worry about your pan. A few customers have “tested it” with sledgehammers and the rear wheels of their cars (no kidding), so I’m pretty sure it’ll survive whatever tools you’ll be using as a substitute until your replacements arrive…

Thanks for taking the time to write.

All the best,

David H.

Hooray for Baker’s Edge!!! Good people with a fabulous product! Seriously, if you want a pan, I can hook you up. 🙂

Not so bad

April 29, 2007 by Lauren 5 Comments

We’ve been experimenting with food left and right lately.   I finally got to use the Baker’s Edge pan for a roast, and I wish I could say it all turned out perfectly.  This was my first experience cooking pork tenderloin, and I wasn’t thinking that it would take less time than a regular piece of meat.  Anyway, the meat turned out pretty awesome (thank, Mrs. Dash!), but the vegetables were kinda crunchy.  Potatoes shouldn’t be crunchy unless they’re chips, and ‘chips’ is a dirty word around here.

Lloyd’s been making salads (trying to be as cool as Brad).  This is his latest creation – lettuce, strawberries, chopped pecans (avocado on mine) and dressed with lemon juice.  It is surprisingly tasty!

A 81% great meal, with only 4% of your RDA of salt.

‘M’ is for Lasagna

April 4, 2007 by Lauren 4 Comments

After each having a pretty bad day, Lloyd and I pigged out on lasagna made in the ultra-cool Baker’s Edge pan.  The noodles fit just right – after snapping off about two inches from each end.  This recipe uses the ‘no-boil-um-first’ method, which didn’t work well the first time I made it back in ought-one.  This time it was much better.  It turns out that you don’t need to worry about turning the corners – they just expand during cooking and fill up the space.

All in all, a good dinner.  Here’s to a better tomorrow! (It’s got to be better – leftover lasagna!)

An 'M' or an upside-down 'W'?  You decide.
