Is charcoalized bread an acceptible substitute for smudge sticks?

[kentauros]

This is what I get for forgetting that I was staling a days-old loaf of bread in my oven, when I turned it on to preheat the broiler coil:






Yeah, I filled the place with smoke, and that's just from the oven vent through the top burners :P

1. Maybe an acceptable subsitute for hockey pucks?

2. We don't get snow here, or not like in northern climes.

I suppose I could buy some charcoal paper... ;)

3. Impressive!

Got any delinquents in the neighborhood? You could chuck 'em at 'em. Or got a pond? Might be good for skipping, like stones.

Glad you didn't burn the place down! :hi:

On edit: The later it gets, the crappier my typing.

4. There was one pair of delinquents a few months ago,

playing basketball, in the street, under my window, at 2 am, on a Thursday night!

So, I took a picture of them, with the flash. The flash ruined the photo, giving me a brightly-lit window pane, but the kids got the message and left.

Still, I could throw them at my neighbor/friend/maintenance guy, every time he revs his LOUD motorcycle under my bedroom window on the weekends, yanno, when us nightowls are sleeping!! ;)

I kept the oven door shut while I was airing it all out. There's no window on it, and I knew better than to open it and start a real fire...


So... did I clear out the energy of the place anyway? :P

5. Smudging with bread?

Why not? Kinda like a Pagan-Christian mashup! "Take this bread and smudge with it...Do this in memory of me."
:rofl:

6. I got a giftcard from my supervisor for Spec's

(it's a liquor store, though he said we should buy some chocolates :P)

So, I'll go buy some Holy Texas Vodka and anoint everything! :rofl:

[Celebration]

7. you could start a trend

A few nights ago I smudged with some taco shells :)

8. LOL!

:applause:

9. In that case, you'll want to use a spray bottle of Holy Tequila, too

:P

The smoke may be gone, but I still noticed the stink this morning. Next time I'm burning sage-bread
