Welcome to our forum.
Thanks Anne, I probably was more fearful than anything, I wanted to at least be able to offer the paramedics some turkey while they tended to my "cooks"...Thank goodness nothing blew up...I have a real healthy fear of propane and an even greater fear when my hubby is in charge!
My good friend had to call me this weekend and remind me of my turkey fry, two Thanksgivings ago...We both bought the $80.00 handy dandy delux turkey fryers...and $25.00 of peanut oil...my husband even bought a new dedicated gas tank to hook to the turkey fryer. I fought this project from the beginning...I am not a real fan of frying and my husband is an accident waiting to happen ...so fire, hot oil, gas tank ...I was imagining a loooong hospital stay. Anyway, everything was set and the entire family watched the dipping of the fowl :-?...and redipping of the fowl and redipping and redipping . My friend had finished her dinner, did the dishes and was well into desert and we were still dipping. The oil never reached the right temperature, the turkey was a soggy oily mess..after hours in the fryer, but never quite frying. Wise hostess that I was...I had an extra turkey in the oven, so dinner was not a complete failure.It took me 2 days to figure out what happened....any guesses?
Oh, Spa tech..you have the trouble shooting thing down, but the marriage thing...didn't you read that clause in the agreement....when something goes wrong (after the wife's strong warnings), IT IS ALWAYS THE HUSBANDS FAULT...
QuoteOh, Spa tech..you have the trouble shooting thing down, but the marriage thing...didn't you read that clause in the agreement....when something goes wrong (after the wife's strong warnings), IT IS ALWAYS THE HUSBANDS FAULT...No, I didn't realize it at the time but as with most marriages I learned it soon enough. The other amazing thing I learned was to know when to throw in the towel because she's more stubborn than I am (and that's saying something) and in the end it just isn't going to get me anywhere and only makes matters worse. "Yes dear"!
