Set milk on to heat to make oatmeal...baby woke up .... i put her in stroller to go for walk... remembered milk in pan on oven 20 min later.
Mod
Oh, did the air clear out, Sally? What was the scene upon your return?Once, while staying at my mother in law's house, I burned microwave popcorn so badly that the entire house smelled for two days.
Microwave popcorn will never be the same for me.
Emeril often says if you want to redecorate your house, put some milk on to boil and don't watch it.
Yikes! Glad you're okay, Sally. Do what Bun said, and open up the windows.
Oh, and after living in a dorm for a few years, I hate the smell of microwaved popcorn, burnt or not.
Mod
Perhaps when Sweeter gets home he'll tell me differently.
When I got home the "milk" was a black crust on the steaming pan. There was one of those gross milk skin tents, also burned black, across the top of half of the pan.
The smoke was thick in the kitchen, but everywhere smelled. I could actually smell it as I approached the front door with Leah in the stroller.
I took the pan off the stove with a towel, turned off the burner, and brought the pan right back out the front, set it on the walk, and sprayed it down with the hose.
Two more minutes and the smoke alarm would have been going off, fo sho.

On a similar note, you must reap what is sown, not what is sewn (a mistake made recently by the city editor of our local paper).

Nurses are notorious for burning microwave popcorn, I don't know why. It seems like once a week that the fire alarms go off at my hospital and the fire dept. has to respond, which reeeeeally pisses them off when it turns out that some idiotic nurse put popcorn in the microwave and set the timer for, what, 30 minutes, or something? Becaue if you follow the instructions on the bag it is impossible to burn microwave popcorn. In fact some microwaves have a "popoorn" button.The other thing that causes the fire alarms to go off at my hospital is towels in the microwave. Towels. What. The Fuck.
Yes. Warming towels in the microwave apparently seems like a good idea to some people.

I remember after surgery being in the recovery room and getting a nice warm blanket.
Someone set the fire alarm off at my workplace microwaving a scarf.Are we experiencing an epidemic of people putting clothes/towels in microwaves?
It's okay. We can live with it. I'm certain our fluency in your language is quite lacking.

That is almost a guarantee.
