since i finally got the package my mom mailed with my cookbooks, i decided to try out a recipe. tonight for dinner i made grilled mushrooms. basically just a few mushrooms marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, basil, and pepper and then broiled.
it came out absolutely delicious.
unfortunately, i realized the hard way that i probably should have looked in the oven before i turned the broiler on. since i'd never even so much as opened the oven door since moving into my apartment, i had failed to notice that the previous occupants had kindly left me a backing pan complete with about half an inch of burned on... stuff... that made for a nice apartment full of smoke soon after i started broiling my mushrooms.
in other news, i apparently don't have any smoke detectors in my apartment...

Teeheeeheee... the oven is something I investigate when immersing myself in a new domicile. Seriously, I'm not that systematic,but I want the bloody thing to work before I need to use it. Last summer or before I was taught how to BBQ shitake in Tamari Ginger and something like cooking sake. I don't like mushrooms, but wow did it smell good.
