Dinner Fail

I was so excited to try out a new recipe that was in my Vegetarian Times magazine - even Jason was excited to try it.  It was a play on Shepherd's Pie with pinto beans and a cornbread top.  I got it all ready to pop in the oven.  See, doesn't it look good!?

Okay, so maybe it doesn't really look good.  But, it was going to taste good, mkay?

And, I'm not exactly sure what happened, but I somehow lost my grip and down it went.  Pinto bean filling everywhere! 

This was LOTS of fun to clean up!  Thank goodness for a self-cleaning oven.

In the oven, into the drawer below the oven, all over all the baking sheets in there, on the kitchen floor and under the stove.  Ugh.  Such. A. Mess!

If this ever happens again, hopefully it will be with something that does not resemble dog puke.

Jason scraped up what could be salvaged and ate it for dinner (raw cornbread dough and all - sure do love that man!)  I'll try again in a week or so and hopefully will have more luck.  I will definitely use two hands when putting it into the oven next time!
