Raise your hand if you set the kitchen on fire yesterday.
My hand is raised...

Beef drippings + hot oven = minor flames.

Lots of flour to extinguish.

Brinks called.

Had to remove the smoke detector batteries.

Still scrubbing.

1. Can't resist a headline like that
No kitchen fire at my place, but it sounds like you had an exciting Christmas.

2. Merry Christmas?
I've not done that, but I can imagine the mess.

3. LOL. No.
In fact, we have now made it through the entire holiday season with no fires! Yay!

4. Smoke Detectors Went Off
I didn't have flames, but a lot of smoke and I also had to remove the smoke detector batteries. Leaving au gratin potatoes in the oven to make sure that they are brown on top isn't the best idea, apparently. Fortunately, it was a warm day in Ohio, so I could open the windows and let out the smoke. :)
