I know that I could have gotten them crispy if I tried. But one of the
eaters doesn't seem to care if they are crispy or not and that person is the
one who wanted to eat first. The other eater was busy and could not eat for
about another hour so I opted to leave them like that, realizing that they
would get slightly more crisp upon reheating. Had things been the other way
around, I would have taken some out then crisped up the rest.

There, Doris. I just referred to my husband as an eater. And that he is.
He eats. So do I. So do my cats. We all eat. We're eaters. I'll be you
and your husband are too!
