A funny thing happened on the way to the...........

I bet you have no idea what this is. Christmas lights, stars, candles, molten earth, picture of Australia taken at night from space? How about the pecans that I was attempting to TOAST under the griller. Hmmmm, knew you'd be impressed - my boys were. That's why they took a photo. The choc chip pecan cookies that I was making called for 'lightly toasted' pecans. As my Nan always said 'when it's brown it's done, when it's black it's buggered'. I think it was the flames leaping out from the griller that really appealed to my sons and possibly the fact that the pecans twinkled so brightly after I threw them on the sand.
