today I learned the meaning of “broiling”: intense heat from above. hence force the saying: I was broiling in the sun the other day at the pool.
in my case it wasn’t I broiling, but our breakfast croissants. a simple thing of warming up croissants – and I fail it. utterly.
I had them in the oven, set on warm, getting to the point where they are just right. but the rest of the breakfast (like: making tea) was lagging. so I turned the oven off in order to not burn the croissants.
and I hit ‘broil’ instead of ‘off’.
the birds are pretty happy…
