FACT
The easiest ways to have a souffle fail is to not have the egg whites at room temperature, not having a absolutely pristine bowl (preferably stainless steel), either under- or over-whipping the egg whites, or permitting external factors (vibrations, etc) to upset the creation as it cooks.
OPINION
The easiest way for a husband to fail is to use the term "despised" when reporting his reaction to your efforts.

NG I can't blame him for his reaction to my meal. I was rather unenthused as well.
My egg whites were cold, better luck next time I guess!

Last night was home-made gnocchi with a creamy gorgonzola and baby pea sauce!
A definite keeper - but my mis-en-place (aka: every horizontal surface in the kitchen!) was certainly......untidy!

Scratch BBQ sauced back ribs, grilled with mashed potatoes and a simple romaine lettuce salad. I don't like cold weather and I want it to be spring now!
So, instead of a dance and chant, I hope the smell of charcoal hurries warm weather in.

Chicken grilled cheese, sweet peas, and homemade lemon meringue pie.
I hope the pie is good, it's on the deck cooling now. Hurry up, Hurry up! Recipe said cool at room temp for 3 hours, but outside in 20 degree cold I should be good with an hour?!? I want to eat it now, the filling was incredible when I cleaned the bowl.

Oh, yes! And if you're really pressed for time, instead of cooking for two hours at 350, try one hour at 700!
Just kidding, friend. Reminds me of my working days when the joke about workload planners was that their idea was to use nine women for one month to gestate a baby!

Well, the hour outside worked out and the lemon curd in the pie is heavenly. The meringue did what it's supposed to do, and I got a solid 8.5 on the pie at home. My coworkers are enjoying part of it now.
I don't like meringue pies, but they're DH's favorite.

I am having frozen fried rice out of a box from IGA. In Montreal. Montreal is too cold and windy to go venture out for real food = lazy, warm, hotel room me.
Thank you for the food fantasies.
I was here last fall and had the best spagetti sauce w/ meat I've ever had in Old Montreal. In April I will re-create that dinner!
