[ so in the aftermath of arthur's death, somehow jr. has become the resident housewife. this is something nobody should ever dream for, by the way, but he might as well be looking after three teenagers for how useful they are when depressed. besides, it gives him something to focus on that isn't himself.
so far it hasn't been too horrible. he's gone up at least one level in cooking for how hard he's been trying to follow the directions, not improvise, and patiently watch rather than get distracted by a book.
unfortunately old habits die hard, and in the middle of trying to make a fancy casserole, jr. decides to improvise and dump all the sauce into the mix and bake it altogether, rather than put it on top after baking.
it really should be no surprise when a smoke alarm goes off, followed by a yell and a cracking sound. anybody lucky enough to run in and check will find a very sheepish jr. in front of a stove that's been frozen in shards of ice.
