BUG: pd.Dataframe.from_dict when first value is a list
#### Reproducible example: 

```python
import pandas as pd

tmp_scen = {'name': 'Current conditions',
 'actionSet': ['not_irrigated', 'cover_crop_none', 'mar_none'],
 'cost': 0.0,
 'totalNitrogen': 9.649798364504209,
 'totalPhosphorus': 2.4570326616674745,
 'sediment': 1.2039077716577735,
 'appliedWater': 11.607623110151138,
 'infiltrationVolume': 0.7424774065057028,
 'acres': 3.382359912104316,
 'irrType': 'not_irrigated'}

good_result = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(tmp_scen, orient = 'index')

tmp_scen = {'actionSet': ['not_irrigated', 'cover_crop_none', 'mar_none'],
 'name': 'Current conditions',
 'cost': 0.0,
 'totalNitrogen': 9.649798364504209,
 'totalPhosphorus': 2.4570326616674745,
 'sediment': 1.2039077716577735,
 'appliedWater': 11.607623110151138,
 'infiltrationVolume': 0.7424774065057028,
 'acres': 3.382359912104316,
 'irrType': 'not_irrigated'}

error_result = pd.DataFrame.from_dict(tmp_scen, orient = 'index')

```
#### Problem description

Error when creating a dataframe from a dictionary when the first item in the dictionary is a list. See reproducible example above. 

```
TypeError: object of type 'float' has no len()
```
