Oops!
The power went out about 2:30 this afternoon and still was out when we had dinner at 5:00. When the power came back on around 6, we decided to make some baked potatoes in the microwave. We RARELY use the microwave, but I didn't want to wait an hour for the potatoes in the oven. I washed, cleaned, and stabbed two potates. I popped them in the microwave, hit the "baked potato" button, and went to my room to check my favorite facebook shopping site.
I heard Chloe say, "Is something burning," so I went to have a look. I wasn't but a few feet out of my room when I smelled smoke. A few more steps, and I saw smoke billowing down the hallway, over the door, and out of the microwave.
I quickly shut the microwave off, and we started airing out the house. Needless to say the potatoes were well past done...
