Our Crazy Cook for December is Susan W. from Fort Collins, Colorado.

Hello Ladies,

Well, this is a long ago story...new bride, learning to cook. You get the idea. Long, BAD day at work. DH is not going to be home for a while as he is an athlete and working out. I had learned to make quiche and it really was quick and easy. Ahhh, spaghetti quiche. Ready made piecrust and I prepared and slid it into the oven. Well, 45 minutes late, DH is home and it is time to remove it from the oven. Alas, I had forgotten to place a cookie sheet under it! Yep, the aluminum pie tin bends in half and the whole thing slides from my hands onto the oven door. I burst into tears, dropped the oven mitts on the floor, turned off the oven and walked sobbing into the LR. DH comes out of the bedroom and sees the mess, shoos the cat away (who is VERY interested in investigating this mess) and scrapes it all onto a cookie sheet. He then proceeds to fix himself a plate and sits down to dine. He told me that it looked terrible, but tasted terrific. (looked terrible was an understatement...looked like someone had thrown up on the oven door!) And yes, Feb will be our 22nd anniversary!
