The Deadly Threes

Sim's right, everything bad strikes in threes.  I had no idea I could murder this dinner so fabulously.

1) I defrosted a steak last night so I'm cooking it in tandem so I can refreeze it again or take it for lunch tomorrow.  I got home at about 5:30 after doing some chores.  Before I started the chili I put turned the oven on and put the steak in.  Making sure to check the time it went in.  355.  Halfway through the chili prep I looked back at the oven....355.  And it's the temperature, for the WIN.

2) I turned on the front burner to start my rice and when I went to pour my first ingredients into the stewing pot it sizzled.  Making this mistake while cooking on multiple elements is how I ended up exploding my medium sized lid.  Lesson not learned.

3) I didn't buy an onion because I had one.  I knew it was probably old and I'd be pushing it slightly.  Onion was moldy so into the garbage it goes, and I have a week of chili sans onion.  OMG.  I think tomorrow I'm going to pick up an onion to cook up and add.  It just won't be the same.
