I have always broken in my gloves with oil and practice. I decided to hurry this one along by using the suggested oven tip I have heard about in the past. “Oh, just put your glove in the oven!” I never believed them, because I feared it would catch fire. I thought I was wrong. My Easter was ruined today.

Well I didn’t see a red, plastic, internal thermometer pop out, like you would see on a turkey. It made for one surprising Easter roast.
