Was thinking what to have for dinner that night,
Barbecue ribs and potato salad sounded just right.
My potato salad was the best made today, or so my family
And others say.
First things first, take out five potatoes, put them in a pot
of water to boil. I knew how long that would take. So I left
the kitchen to go the den, now that was a big mistake.
I turned on my computer, it took forever to come on, but
when it finally came up, I did a few things. I read my email,
Went to Authors Den, and uploaded some pictures I wanted
to send. Did a little shopping on line, oh yeah, my potatoes,
I forgot the time.
When I got to the stove I opened the lid on the pot; I let out a
horrible scream! The skins had popped open, and oh, what a mess.
It looked like potato soup that was just a bad dream.
I wasn’t going to let this bug me, I drained the water and saved
what I could. But the way things were going, with potatoes
falling apart, it certainly didn’t look good.
Since I was such a “genius”, I knew just what to do, I’d cheat
and bake some potatoes in a microwave, add it to what I had
saved, and everything would be okay.
Now our microwave is hotter than most, I left them in too long
and when I looked at my baked potatoes, they had shriveled up and died. I realize now that trying to cook and work on the computer is just plain wrong.
But there is a bright light at the end of tunnel, I got my potato salad from Fry’s.

I've been there! Cooking and working on the computer just don't match - it's my waterloo (cooking) but I'm good at taste tests.
Very nice and true!
