Domestically challenged

Ok...so for family night we were planning to dip pretzels in melted cooking chocolate. Can I just say I am domestically challenged? How hard could it be to melt chocolate and dip the stinkin' pretzels in? Apparently, harder than my skills allowed. I burned myself, got water in the chocolate and in the end handed the stirring spoon to Ken and walked away. Ken added some sugar and nuts and made fudge instead. Moral of the story: When your wife gives you messed up chocolate, make fudge. :)
