The last time I used my oven, some of the sauce from the dish overflowed and hit the bottom of the oven. I didn't have time to clean it up and had forgotten about it. This morning I slid a pan of buttermilk biscuits into the oven and noticed a slightly smoky smell. The oven was already hot and it was too late to do anything about it, so I decided to let it burn off.
A couple of minutes later . . .
My son: Mom, what's that smell?
Me: Something spilled on the bottom of the oven. It's burning off. Everything is fine.
My other son: Mom, what do I smell?
Me: You smell some sauce that fell on the bottom of the oven. Everything is fine.
My daughter: Mom, it's getting smoky in here.
Me: When something is burning off, it does create smoke. Everything is just fine. Your breakfast is not burning.
Me, two minutes later: Oh, crap . . .

Hee hee--NICE finish!
(Bummer about the biscuits, though.)
LOL!! I hate it when that happens. ;)
Ha ha ha!
Uh Oh. Did you enjoy your biscuits with that lovely burned-in smell that somehow becomes a taste?
I grew up with that smell/taste and weirdly, I miss it. It's what I associate with homemade cookin'!
Been there, done that! Many times. And sometimes, I can't even blame it on spilled gunk.
But the one my family especially enjoys is when I put eggs on to boil (on high) and forget about them...for an hour or so...Don't even try to clean it up. Just throw them out, pan and all.
hahahehehehahhhhhhhhhhhhhhoohahe! Oh no "your breakfast is not burning. Oh crap!"
Very, very funny! LOL!
The worst "kitchen" disaster I've had is I left pacifiers on to boil and sterilize, left the room, and forgot about them entirely until I smelled a plasticky burning smell. Yup, all the water had boiled off and the pacifiers were melted to the bottom of the pain. Oops.
ROFL!!!! =D =D
Sooo, what did the children end up eating for breakfast?
