You can thank me later

Have you ever used those silicone bake wear pans? They are very cool. The husband designs it or something..Not sure what he does..But I know he has something to do with it. They also design items for a very popular brand of items that is for some reason top secret and I can not even tell you...Without endangering national security or something.. .But beyond that.....I just recently used these silicone pans..

I found them nice, but also I found some flaws. On the cake pans, they do not put the size of the pan the bottom....Which to me is very odd. The second thing was the bread pans were way too deep. You can not make bread in pans that are so deep..It would be like baking two loafs on top of eachother..Makes no dang sense

Last thing, they need handles. It is very difficult to get a hot , silicone, floppy bake pan out of the oven with out dropping it or accidentally flipping stuff out of the pan..I am just sayin.

So if you use these items..When you see the pan size on the bottom one day..You can thank yours truly..Because all the dumb as$es that design it never thought about that. Hello..

you guys soooooo don't pay me enough....

******************************************

I went caroling tonight....I must say, I sounded pretty good. But I will tell you why I was so good..

and no it is not because the older folks we went to sing to are tone deaf

It is because my mother came over, and I showed her Sheila...(my ipod)....I put Sheila on shuffle and mom took an ear piece and I took the other...And we sang our hearts out...It was truly the most embarrassing scene of my adult years.....My spawns came up from the basement thinking an animal was caught in a trap.....Between the uncontrollable giggling and off key notes, it sounded pretty good....

well my part wasn't off key.....But what can ya do?

So my pipes were nice and warmed up. The last song we sang before we hung it up for the night was..

"uptown girl" by Billy Joel..

ok, stop laughing.

Toodles

Happy hump day

I always wondered if those pans actually worked. It seems weird to put a plastic substance in the oven.

Foxy said...

i wish we had the audio clips on you and your mom! LOL and I love the name of your new IPOD- Sheila...lemme guess- Princes' Sheila?? :)

Melis said...

The pans... ummmm wouldn't it help if you put them on a cookie sheet for when you took them out of the oven?? Just a thought.. and YOU can thank ME later! LOL

"Sheila"?? What Prince song is about a Sheila???

You.. singing... again. Ummmm I only have a couple simple question. More knitted gifts? Or did you give gifts of ear plugs??? LMAO Ya know I love ya's! LOL

some of those silicon pans come with a metal frame they slip into for baking so they can easily be put in and taken out of the oven but the baked good can easily be removed from flexable pan after it is done. The bread pans are probally for sweet breads like zucchini and thus is a larger pan. Couldn't say without seeing the pan you speak of. A lot of metal pans don't put the size on them either and it is quite annoying. If men really thought we could eyeball 9 inches don't you think a lot more men would be self conscience?

Anne Coleman said...

Hmmm...note to self: Don't Buy ANYTHING silicone lmao-especially boobs.

You know I would have gone caroling with you-I used to sing very well and then I had kids-I dunno-some say your voice changes because of hormones-I say it's from all the yelling :o)

eyes_only4him said...

vani, there will never EVER be any evidence that such an episode took place:-)
I do belive Prince has a song named Sheila...I just thoguth she looked like sheila thats all.

Melis,I suppose I could out it on a cookie sheet, but then that is one more thin I would have to wash:(

Karin, these ones have no metal at all...just pure rubber:-)
and NO man can eyeball 9 inches:)


Anne, LMAO....
I use to sing better till I had my throat cut open 5 years agao..or so that is my excuse anyway...You betta join us next time, I am tired of carrying the saporaons..LMAO

I know a lot of people who have raved about the bakeware - I just need to suck it up and stock up (I like to bake and am always looking for a way to make it easier!)

Love that you and your mom are so great at bonding over some "seasonal" lyrics. Did you ever hit the streets though? Or are you saving that for this weekend? tee hee

eyes_only4him said...

felcia, well I must say so far I like them..other than the floppiness:)
I was thinkikng more New Years Eve for my mom and I to take our act on the road:-)

D, mine didnt come with directions cuz hubby just brought them home from work...but I hate the thought of dirtying anohter pan, to use anohter pan...LMAO

Anonymous Fat Blogger said...

I've been wanting those pans but always wondered how you take them out of the oven without dumping everything....

I love singing...I just shouldn't, it's hard on everyone's ears..lol

Jamie Dawn said...

How FUN you and your mom putting on a mini concert. I'm sure the image of all that is engrained in your kids' minds forever.

I have been having a heck of a time getting into your blog lately. It shuts me off the internet when I try to visit you. I use a MAC so maybe there's something messing up. I just want you to know that I try and sometimes can't get here. Today I got in!

eyes_only4him said...

Tee/Tracy said...

Never knew Uptown Girl qualified as a Christmas carol. ROFL. (Love that song, though... Always wanted to be Kirsty Brinkley in that video. ROFL.)

Thanks for the review on those pans. I'll hold off until they do as you tell them! ;)

Karin said...

Ok in honor of D I will only say this. Nip Tuck, holy cow what an episode so much happened and now we will have to wait a whole season ot see what is next with these crazy people. I am so sad it is over.

eyes_only4him said...

Tee, well you dont know you chrismtas carols then now do you:-)

Karin, ok, anohter nip/tuck fan..I am in heaven..Is that show not the best..Me and lilsassy had nice chat about it today..I had all this pent up nip/tuck talk in me and had nowhere to vent it too..I guess she did too..Now we can dish about it too...and D..close your eyes if your reading..but the ending..I am still in shock..two of them..WTF!!!!!..thats all I am gonna say:-)

Karin said...

Yeah I know. What about the other psycho story line in the show what is going to happen with that, my mind is racing. Poor D it must suck to have to wait until the weekend. Won't it be hard to watch around Christmas. Still in shock.

eyes_only4him said...

karin,
oh I know..when matt and that other guy/girl shot that guy and when he made matt cut his "thingy off" with a box cutter..holy crap..

Karin said...

I was shocked at that. I began to wonder at the end if Matt really cut him though or if they were faking so they would get the dad off guard. Afterall himshe looked ok at the end. Oh and inbreeders huh?

momma of 2 said...

You know I thought about getting some of those pans - but will wait until they put sizes on them...

eyes_only4him said...

Karin, Oh I know..I think he did cut it off thought because at the end when he was digging the grave he says" he isnt dead yet we can still save him"...so that made me lead to beive he did..and I think at the end he told him he wa sorry..I could be wrong:)
and the inbreeding...that creeped me out the most..*shivers*

Momma, I am working on it sweety:-)
