okay..........I'll add one.
I put on a fry-pan with bacon grease in it on the stove to warm up, I was going to fry an egg.
Walked out of the kitchen, saw my neighbor outside, went out to talk to her.
The next thing I know my smoke detector is going off, the one downstairs than as the smoke gets upstairs the one up stairs is going off. Our security system has smoke detection as part of the system. Our security system starts going off, which inclides a siren in the roof of our house.
I walk into the kitchen to see flames coming from the pan..........black smoke billowing around the ceiling.
I run over grab the pan by the handle........God was looking out for me......that handle was not hot. I take the burning fry pan out to the deck, put in on the deck which burns a black mark in my cedar deck.
Because the security alarm has gone off, the alarm company is calling to see what is going on. The lady on the phone wants to know if she should send the fire department. Two smoke dectctors and a siren in the roof are still blasting while I talk to her.......finally get her off the phone and my other neighbor calls to see if everything is okay........in the meantime I'm fanning the one smoke alarm to get the smoke away from it.
Finally get everything somewhat under control and realize the kitchen cabinets my husband has just put a fresh coat of white paint on are black. I clean them the best I can......but they are just not coming clean.
I KNOW..............the left over paint is in the basement. Get the paint, but no paint brush. Being the smart woman I am
I use the only thing I can find to paint my kitchen cabinets............a pastry brush!!!!!!!!!!
After finally detatching my tongue from plug and regaining my equilibrium I say "Now, girls, that's something YOU must never do. It's very dangerous".
