what have you burned in the kitchen?
Re: s/o Ali's facebook status
i've burned a kitchen towel on a stove burner.
i've also started a fire in the microwave. i was in college and put one of those coffee single bags (like a tea bag) in a mug in the microwave and started it. i never put the water in though! and the small staple sparked and started a fire.
nothing big though! we were able to put it out ourselves.
hahaha I love that you started this thread.
New Years day last year H decided he was going to make brunch for us and our friends that stayed over.
He decided to put turkey bacon in the oven. Note sure what the fvck happened but he opened the oven door and WHOOOOSH came the flames....quickly shut the door, and grabbed the extinguisher and put out the fire. The turkey bacon was ruined. AND the house smelled like smoke for 2 days.
I was LIVID. At least the oven was cleaned after
)
Now for me...Hmmm.... I can't remember ever setting the stove or oven on fire...
I haven't - knock on wood - set anything on fire with the stove, but I set a Chips Ahoy cookie on fire when I was in college. I always put them on wet paper towels and microwave them so they're softy and chewy, but I guess I put it in too long - the one in the middle of my plate actually had a small fire going, and it was completely burned. That's the only one that burned though.
My dorm room smelled like burned cookie for days. It was ridiculous.
When I was a kid, my dad was coating a griddle with oil to make pancakes, and the oil dripped onto the burner and lit up.
My aunt somehow caught a bag of popcorn on fire in the microwave when my sister and I were staying with her.
Two years ago, at my grandparents for Thanksgiving, Rodgers took a dish from our car inside. It was wrapped in towels to keep from spilling all over the car. He handed it to my grandpa, who set it down on the counter, draping the towels over a lit candle.
For me, I was getting something out of the oven, and dropped the oven mitt on the heating element. It just smoked a lot; I got it out before it caught fire. But the smoke detectors went off.
I can't think of anything that I have lit on fire, but I have burned lots of food.
And one time, I was at a bridal shower where somehow, a sheet of tissue paper caught on fire. That was fascinating/frightening because the stuff floats up in the air like crazy, while burning. Flying burning things are no good.
I personally have never lit anything on fire in the kitchen. I did create a nice burn mark on the back of our brand new microwave when I was "testing" it and didn't realize the metal fan filter was inside. Whoops.
Last night was pretty funny. DH dropped the oven mitt in the oven and didn't realize. So like 30 seconds later he's looking inside to check on the cookies when the oven mitt burst into flames. All I heard was "uh oh" and then saw the flaming mitt. He's making gingersnap cookies tonight, let's hope there are no flames involved!

Aren't kids the best!
Myself, but not "on fire" and not seriously.
And once there was some residual cheese in the toaster oven & it caught fire when I went to toast a second batch of grilled cheese.
