It had been a busy day.
I took the lazy route and threw some potatoes
and corn on the cob into the Slow Cooker
to "sauna-tize" till time for dinner.

25 min before taking this gourmet meal
to the table, I went to the freezer to fetch
a box of frozen popcorn shrimp (which
is a quick fix - into the oven and out in 20 min.)

I dug and I dug; beyond the potato chips,
deeper than the hidden cookies, and
far beneath the long-forgotten
bag of cauliflower. . .
I searched once.
Then I searched again.
No popcorn shrimp!

Then I called Mister on his cell phone
and declared "dinner malfunction"!
and declared "dinner malfunction"!
He stopped by Popeye's and brought
home chicken. I love that man!!
Maybe if we eat the old bag of cauliflower
it will make up for the yummy, greasy,
extra crispy, fried chicken
we enjoyed yesterday.

I always have malfunctions - and their names are Kelly and Andy! No matter what I cook - they don't like it! Maybe I should stop cooking! sandie
Ha! That was a great save the day for dinner. Mine happened this morning when I went to get the lettuce out to fix my salad for lunch, it was already out of date and kind of ucky! I guess I didn't check too carefully when I bought the tub of it on Friday.
LOL- Yep- we have days like that,too. Sounds like it ended up being a pretty good meal after all. I have NEVER done potatoes and corn in the crock pot by themselves. Seriously? And the potatoes don't come out all mushy? xo Diana
Not lately, but more than a few times I've started a recipe only to see that I don't have a crucial ingredient I thought I had! Annoying!
To me that sounds like "dinner gone good!" I don't mind cooking as much as I mind being the one to always think up the menu!
too many to mention, its the story of my life lately! Those potatoes and corn sound very interesting.
That was a great dinner malfunction since it included Popeye's chicken. Haven't had too many malfunctions in the kitchen lately but there's plenty on the horizon, I have a feeling.
Not lately but I have definitely had my share.
oh, ya' mean dinner isn't like that for you every night? :0
that's my dinner plan nearly every night....malfunction....
I don't cook much so I haven't had any malfunctions lately, but I would take one if it meant I ended up with fried chicken.
There is nothing you could eat that is bad enough to justify punishment by cauliflower. Nothing.
Well I don't think it qualifies as a malfunction but my corn beef brisket shunk to 1/2 its size. LOL It was supposed to be for 2 meals. Thankfully we had lots of cabbage, carrots and potatoes and corn bread,
