Oh Dear!

I came home from work today (where I signed up ELEVEN jailbirds thank you very much!) and carried in the bags of groceries. The kitchen was nice and warm, which was very much appreciated after the chilliness of outside. There was also a gentle hum. All in all, it was very peaceful.

I hung up my coat and processed the mail, then I said to myself, I said, "Self --- that IS NOT a normal noise coming from the kitchen." Then I said, "There's a slightly peculiar smell coming from the kitchen." Then I said, "It's not really normal for the kitchen to be so warm. I'd better check that out."

Yes, as you can imagine, ARN (or something like him) had jumped up onto the stove and actually started it! It was baking nothing at 350 degrees. And the "oven start time", you ask? 9:24 am!

Yikes!
