I was thinking ahead for my busy day which was full of childcare and playdates and decided to make the pork chops in the crock pot. It was a great plan except that I forgot to put it in the pot until about 1. That wasn't really a problem though, because I could put it on HIGH and it would still be ready by about 5:30 when we needed to eat before our playdate. At 5:45, I realized it was time to leave for the bounce house and I hadn't finished making dinner. Well, I thought, "OK, I'm flexible. I'll just set the Crock-pot on Warm and it will keep for an hour while we are gone." I grabbed a quick dinner to go for my daughter, and we were out the door. We had a great time and I was pretty hungry by the time we came home. When we opened the door, the house smelled of food, but not the way I expected it to smell...You see, I didn't really set the Crock-pot on Warm before leaving. I accidently set it on High! The result was this inedible piece of charred meat...
The good part is that we got to eat at Penn Station which we never get to do anymore. They don't really have great options for kiddo's there.
