self-inflicted drama

so we had some last minute guests over a few days ago ... and in a tidying frenzy, i hid the dirty dishes in the oven because the dishwasher was full and clean.

i totally forgot about them until i turned on the oven tonight. until joe and i were asking each other "um. what's the smell? do you smell something funny?"

it wasn't pretty. but the dishes were okay once i rescued them. our kitchen still smells like burnt carrots.
