to wonder if it is safe to go back in the kitchen yet...

[squeakytoy]

I put some eggs on to boil just before Corrie started... at 8.30pm..

Got slightly distracted... until I heard a loud bang...

Kitchen now full of exploded egg... pan very dry... plastic pound shop egg timer thingy burnt, melted and stuck to the bottom of burnt pan..

And still 4 eggs in the pan..

I turned the gas off and legged it out again, but I am too scared to go back in incase the other 4 explode...

Sorry but...........

and double

OOPS!

As good as the time DH's parents put the Christmas pudding into the pressure cooker and forgot to add enough water to steam it. The cooker lid exploded off and the ceiling was pebble dashed with pudding.

Pressure cookers scare the life out of me for that very reason.. I dont like anything that is prone to exploding...

Thats why I love slow cookers.. you cant really feck things up with them.

Yep and there was also the time when they got their first microwave oven. Tried to cook sausages. On full power. For 30 minutes.

DH revels in telling me this sort of stuff.

Ah yes. Get someone else to deal with it! I mean, why do you have to do FUCKING EVERYTHING AROUND HERE? Its ridiculous.

is it normal to boil eggs in pressure cookers?

Thank GOd for that grin Tatty- I thought you had totally lost the plot!

Tatty!
