Need vacay. STAT.

If I have to look at one more technical manual at work, I will go batshit insane. I'm sorry, but a thousand pages in four days is TOO MUCH. Seriously, my hair is falling out cause I am so stressed. At least, I think that's why it's falling out. When I go bald, I want a beautiful, long red wig, BTW. ^____^

Feeling better today. It helped that my brother,sensing I was on the edge of a mental breakdown/murder spree, called me today. We hashed out some stuff and spent a little while being silly and pointless, and that was nice. Nice in that he gets that I am upset and why I am upset and while he doesn't try to broker the peace, he is just there, which is really the most important thing of all.

I love making sweet potato fries in the oven, but for reals - I cannot make them crispy to save my life.

I heard that blanching the fries first (~1 min in boiling water) and thoroughly drying them before putting them in the oven will work...never tried it myself though. Oh, and making sure they're not too crowded in the oven so they don't steam each other.

Thanks for the tips! I'll give the blanching a try next time. I will master this dish, yet! LOL...
