oops...

so, one time, i was reading this magazine, and it was giving last minute cleaning tips and one of them was to hide dirty dishes in the oven if people were coming over and you were running out of time.

so the other night, we had students over and i had made some brownies the other day, but we didn't have enough left for students to eat, so i put them in the oven to hide them.

then last night i got hungry and i decided to make some cinnamon rolls. so while the oven was pre-heating, i started to smell this weird smell... then when i walked in the kitchen i smelled smoke... then i opened the oven and it all poured out... annnnd... i left the brownies in there. plastic lid and all... and the lid had melted all over the oven!

just a little embarrassing...







but, luckily, when plastic (pyrex at least) melts, it keeps its shape.  so it was really easy to take off of everything.  so everything is fine.  i would like to say that i have been sick, so im blaming this on not thinking clearly.  timmy, as i've said before, is wonderful. and when i called him in a slight panic, he was totally calm and helped me calm down too.  he's the best.

love.

I did that too recently but it was a hard plastic lid, the lid melted on the pan like yours and the smell stayed around the oven for like 4-5 uses after that in the oven.. it was aweful. So I was so thankful when I'd pre-heat the oven and that smell was gone.
