Happy Yesterday

I hope you fathers had a happy Father's Day. My dad did, for the most part.

I made breakfast--ham and cheese omelette per his request. And I made most of dinner--including my first ever baked potatoes. I'm almost embarassed to admit that. But I'm not a big baked potato fan. I prefer mine mashed.

So I broke out the Betty Crocker cookbook, and went with the 350 degree oven for 90 minutes. I washed them, stabbed them with a fork, wrapped them loosely in foil, and stuck them in the oven. I debated about rubbing them down with butter, but didn't. And want to hear something weird? They were the best baked potatoes I ever had. They were cooked all the way through and soft like I like them (remember the mashed). I didn't even do anything to them. So clearly I was prejudiced for my own cooking. It's the only explanation.

We took the boat out for a little while, and that was good. The water hasn't quite warmed up in the lake yet, though.

Not such a bad day.
