Anatomy Of A Failed Quiche
Sometimes things fall apart.....like this quiche. I had high hopes for this Swiss Chard Quiche but ambition got the best of me. I tried making one of those high sided crusts and because I didn't use pie weights the thing literally fell apart.
My pathetic attempts to rescue the quiche failed, but my friend Sara ate it anyway. She said it was yummy. I ended up having a bite, but because the custard leaked while baking (total disaster!) the swiss chard wasn't fully submerged and ended up crunchy at the top---not delicious crunchy, but inedible crunchy.
All was not lost since I managed to snap a few picks of the aftermath right before I tossed the whole thing in the trash. My spirit might be bruised but I will not let the quiche win! Tomorrow, I bake another.

Don't you hate it when that happens? It seems like when I'm in the biggest hurry, have the least energy, etc, that's when something I NEVER have any difficulty with fails me!
Well, I look forward to your success. The best dishes evolve from our mistakes. And, this had lots of promise.
Thanks Jean and Angela. I won't let the quiche win!
