OT WARNING WARNING

I just tried to warm the burrito, but when it came out of the ruins, the ashes of it all, it was a flaming hot burrito, literally!!!!  Doug is home, and he is no made, but he is complaining that the house smells, just like he does when he is back from fires!    I have to tell you, I am laughing now, but I wasn't then.  Of course that is the second fire in my years with Doug.  My first one was a grease fire in the oven.  Didn't poke holes in the foil, and the grease just caught fire.  Also check to make sure you all have fire extinguishers in the home and they are charged up.  Allow me to tell you, this is the true plumbers wife house, no smoke detector in our bedroom and we don't have an extinguisher in the house!  But my toilets do work!!! lol

I never knew that either!  TG you are OK . . . and I'll step to the plate for you and have a drink in your honor tonight!

Hugs
Chris

Glad to hear that you are okay, I will say it again, I did not know about the brown paper bag either.  Thanks for sharing.

Take care of yourself,

One of our illustrious administrators did the same thing in the office microwave. She put the bread that came in a brown paper bag in the microwave and the building smelled of smoke and the microwave was scorched...The thing that troubled me was that we have fire drills all the time and the smoke alarm did NOT go off...

So if it can happen to a highly paid administrator, it can happen to anyone!

OMG!!!! No fire extinguishers!! Yep! Plumber's wife, baker's wife or in my Mom case it was the butcher's wife and then the trucker's wife...we didn't have nothin' then.LOL
So glad you are ok and only lost the burrito! What are you doin' eatin' a burrito anyway? LOL Just kiddin'!
So Diane when is your surgery anyway?

HUGS
JOY

Diane,

WOW, you taught me something today, I had no idea!  We have our charged fire extinguisher and our smoke alarms are armed and dangerous and always alert Ron when breakfast is ready!  LOL

So glad you and the house are fine!  Sending prayers to you for your upcoming surgery too kiddo.

Hugs,
Barb

Wow.. thanks for the warning Diane... I didn't know that either.  Im just glad you are ok!! 

Hugs,

Jackie

Oh yucky..that really stinks but glad all is ok besides the loss of your dear microwave...they arent cheap to replace!
A similar thing happend to me with a starbucks coffee cup...stuck it in to reheat my coffee and the cup started cooking and turning brown! I think I caught the smell before a flame lit but it sure did scorch the cup (and my coffee!)

So a poodle in the microwave probably wouldn't work then?? 




Ok.......I should explain before you all think I'm crazy.  One of my best friends has a poodle named Buffington who's blind.  My hubby was always teasing her about putting the poodle in the microwave.

We went there several years ago for Thanksgiving and her Marine son and my hubby actually put the dog in the microwave and took pictures.  I'll see if I can find the picture and post it on my profile.  Sounds silly now I guess, but it was hysterical at the time.

Anyhoo,  thank you for the info Diane.  I had no idea.

Doug is really quite baffled as to why the bag burned.  He is going to take it to one of his prevention meetings, and maybe find out from those smarter than him and find out if this is a common occurance.  There was nothing in the bag except 4 napkins, 3 hotsauces and the burrito.  Doug was wondering if maybe there was a stable on the bag that maybe sparked, but of course I destroyed all the evidence.  I will keep you all posted on this.

Hugs, Diane
