Lamb was really cheap this week so we got a small shank-end roast - about 750g, bone in. I decided to do it today - sunday roast, etc, nothing could be more traditional or inappropriate for this actually really hot day. So I went to quite a lot of trouble to have it seasoned, sitting at room temp for half an hour, the whole deal. it was all set up and ready to go, I stepped out for thirty minutes, I get back and my flatmate has shoved the meat - and the meat only - into the oven, and left a note saying "put lamb in oven, think it will take about an hour and a half, back in 40 minutes."
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRGH.
COME ON. It's a teensy weensy 750g roast! And I'm roasting it hot! It should take about TWENTY minutes, 30 if you like it nicely done! Plus 15 minutes to sit! Meanwhile, the vegetables, which should take about 40 minutes, are sitting on the bench! COME ON. I AM COOKING. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT, SERIOUSLY. Why would you just SHOVE IT IN when I AM COOKING and HAVE IT PLANNED OUT. Especially when I have sat the meat carefully inside the pan with the vegetables, WHY WOULD YOU TAKE IT OUT? FUCKING HELL.

(Apropros of nothing: watched Bones premiere with Tas, liked muchly. The flirting was outrageous. Not so keen on the whole cannibal plotline, but that's what covering my ears and screeching is for.)
