I've had the burnt eggplant phenomenon. I just cry and then tell myself that it happens to everyone. Haha, no but I really do believe that it's part of trying new things. Or just trying to do too many things at once. I struggle with wanting to accomplish eighteen things at the same time, so something inevitably must fail. I'm getting better though. Now I just yell loudly, I don't cry. You are so right that your good intentions and effort are all that count. I’ve had the burnt eggplant phenomenon.

I just read an article that said more than 40% of the food produced for consumption goes to waste...that's almost 1 out of every 2 items! I think we could all work on this. It would obviously help the environment and our pockets as well...and I've definitely had many food disasters...most frequently this occurs when I leave the lid off the blender and decide to hit the on button.

I am very competent in the kitchen and I got that way by burning the eggplant--and everything else--time and again. It's corny but true--you learn from your mistakes. Just don't give up on the eggplant. I get mine nice and brown without burning it by using a non stick skillet.

I was so irritated because I wasted so much good food!

I am usually so hard on myself for any failure and my husband is constantly reminding me too that the world will not end because I "burned the eggplant"...I really liked this read. Puts things into perspective!:) Happy Thursday, Tracey! This was a great post…one that I should definitelypay attention to!
