- Last week I started a pot holder on fire while trying to scramble an egg.
- Three months ago I started the toaster cord on fire when it was on the stove, and I lit the pilot to boil water.
- I only learned how to make Mac and Cheese in the past few years, since I have a four year old. I tried it once and added all the ingrediants at once and ruined it.
- I gave myself food poisoning from undercooked chicken. Twice.
- Last night I made over two dozen peanut butter chocolate chip cookies and burned every single one. Actually, only the bottoms were burned. The tops were still raw.
I’m a fun-loving foster and adoptive mom juggling a teenager, a tween, and a toddler, all while navigating the wild world of homeschooling. I recently took the plunge and moved to a new state without ever setting foot there—talk about an adventure! This is my real-life story, filled with chaos and joy. My mission? To swap out traditional products and pharmaceuticals for healthier, natural options for my family. Oh, and I really miss writing, so I'm excited to weave that back into my life!

I started my hand mixer on fire from overuse.
That? Was not a good night.
Lisa, please stay away from matches!
Last week, I put a loaf of bread from Panera in the microwave to warm it up...in the brown paper bag. I didn't look inside the bag, however; the bread was wrapped in plastic and tied with a metal twistie-tie that promptly caught fire. I had no idea until I opened the microwave and let out a ball of fire. I grabbed the bread and threw it in the sink where it finished catching on fire. Then I soaked it.
Oh, don't try to microwave a hard-boiled egg, either.
I'm way, way better at just baking. Really. I shouldn't be allowed near a microwave.
Julie, I've never heard of a hand mixer catching fire, lol!
Pat, I think I need to stay away from the kitchen in general.
Amber, definitely stay away from microwaves:)
LOL. Sounds like you and the kitchen don't mix. And that's okay. I've had my share of disasters too, but nothing spectacular springs to mind right now.
