Thursday Thirteen: Edition 19 - Top 13 signs you're a lousy cook

Top 13 signs you're a lousy cook (I found the top 10 signs so I'm adding 3 to make it fit today's T13. Additionally, I'm counting down to 1 this week to be different.)
13. If the EPA requires that all your garbage cans be marked with large bright red "biohazard" symbols. 12. Your homemade bread loaf can be used as a door stop. 11. Your dog turns up his nose at your food when your kids try to sneak it to him under the table. 10. Your family heads for the dinner table when they hear the smoke detector. 9. Your kids know what "peas porridge in a pot nine days old" tastes like! 8. When your toddler goes outside to make mud pies, the rest of the family grabs forks and follows. 7. Your kids' favorite drinks are Alka-Seltzer and Pepto Bismal! 6. Your family is perpetually jealous of the delicious-looking food in Fido's bowl. 5. Your kids got even with the neighborhood bully by inviting him for dinner. 4. Your kids got suspended from school for smuggling toxic waste into the cafeteria. 3. Your husband refers to that smoke detector as the 'dinner bell'. 2. No matter what you do to it, the gravy still turns blue! And the SUREST SIGN you are a lousy cook... 1. You cause kitchen fires when making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Also, I was just tagged by Sandra Cox so here goes:
Tag rules: 1) Link to the person that tagged you. 2) Post the rules on your blog. 3) List six unspectacular quirks you have. 4) Tag six bloggers by linking them. 5) Leave a comment on each person's blog to let them know they've been tagged. My unspectacular quirks are: 1) I'm a list maker. I keep a million steno pads with lists of things to do, baby names (for my characters), story ideas, etc. 2) I want to try new restaurants but when we do, I'm afraid to try a new dish as I don't know if I'll like it and thus waste $. (courtesy of my hubby) 3) Instead of drinking coffee to get me going in the morning, I have to have a big Diet Coke (or Pepsi). EVERY DAY. 4) I hate crowds and I get very annoyed. 5) I only like very soggy french fries. (And I steal them from my kids and hubby.) 6) My bachelor's degree is in Accounting but I work as a customer service manager by day, and by night I'm an erotic romance writer.
