Ethan spent the afternoon with one of his buddies from the baseball team, and that included dinner. Which was fine with me, since I had to work this morning and felt a big nap coming on this afternoon!
I did complete a big domestic chore, though. I cleaned my oven... for the first time in my life. I've never USED an oven enough to dirty it up! I noticed a few weeks ago that every time I preheated the oven, a scary burning smell filled our little apartment. I thought the oven was broken at first. Nope. Just the nasty crud sizzling on the bottom of our oven. I knew for a fact that my oven was not self-cleaning, because I decided against the extra cost when I bought it (thinking I never use ovens anyway). I had to ask my mother: How do you clean an oven???? I had no idea that all I needed to do was buy some Easy-Off.
Except that spraying the Easy-Off and closing the oven door is a lot easier than actually coming back to wipe clean the oven. Eeeeewww. I almost threw up about 4 times as I was cleaning the crud out. I'm not going to go that long between cleanings again.
