FLOOR CLEANING
After lunch, I took a short nap. It was lovely. I woke up around 2:30P and got up to start working on the hardwood floor. It has been so dirty, I hated walking around in my bare feet. So I swept it up, vacuumed the corners and ends, cleaned them and then put a polish on them. They feel good now.
During this time, I also roasted a bird. I found out that the lemon pepper seasoning I put on it is what causes it to scorch. If I do this again, I think I will need to put the seasoning on the bird about half-way through the cooking process. I started it at 450 then moved it down to 425. That seemed ok. But when I took a look at it about 30 minutes in, there were already some scorched parts, especially on the breast.
Although the thermometer didn't read 190 when I stuck it in, the bird was cooked when I sliced it apart. I suspect that maybe using a pan instead of a roasting pan that elevates the bird, cooks it hotter and that's probably why the first time I did this, the temperature reached 190.
