Microwave Brownies

One of the problems with the word “microwave” is that it is both a verb and a noun.

This caused a problem recently. I was making brownies, and I followed the instructions as written on the box.

and here’s a close-up view of the instructions:

It clearly stated that I was to add water and microwave. So I took out a big bowl and poured in the brownie mix. Then I poured in the water.

Then I put a microwave in the bowl and stirred everything together.

It didn’t taste very good.

I think their instructions were wrong.

but he hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had interpreted to them.
