The  Blessed  Roast

The past couple of weeks, I have been craving a nice Sunday roast.  They haven’t been priced very reasonable lately, so I haven’t bought one.  But the other day, the kids and I were at the store and I decided to take a look at the roasts just incase.  I looked around and all I could see were $15 and $20 dollar roasts.  I kept looking, and bam!  There in front of me was a $3.41 roast!  What!?!  It couldn’t have been right.  It was the same cut and the same freshness as all the other roasts as well as the same size.  Well I decided right then and there, that it was a little blessing from an awesome Heavenly Father and left it at that.  I was so beyond excited.  I even made the cashier make sure it was the right price for me before buying it, just to make sure it wasn’t some sick trick.  We bought that beautiful piece of meat, and took it home.

Sunday rolled around, and it was time to cook it.  We were all so excited.  And after hours of cooking and waiting and salivating at the wonderful smells coming from the oven, I opened the lid only to discover that I had burned my beloved roast!  Are you kidding me!?!  I have never burned a roast in my life!  Unfortunately my new oven seems to cook things much faster and more efficiently than any of my previous ovens.  BOO!  So I guess you could say that I am a little mad at my oven at the moment.  I guess it wasn’t all bad, we were able to salvage most of the meat.  But still.
