It's even worse when you complete forget to make one of the menu items for a
meal. Last night I had an eggplant gratin almost done in the toaster oven,
and was about to saute the chicken cutlets which would only take a few
minutes. Looked at the stove timer to see how long until the rice would be
done... but it's not even set. Wait, I didn't even start the rice! I don't
know where my mind was last night. Well, the eggplant gratin was a little
overdone by the time the rice was finished. It wasn't much to look at, but
it still tasted very good after being kept warm that long.
