2 thumbs & a dummy

*This is not really new news but I had to share it anyway. *

I actually nearly did. *lol*

You see, I wanted to cook some oyster/garlic sauce to pour over my vegs. So I fried the garlic then added the oyster sauce but somehow, the consistency seem a little to thick for my liking and also it looked nothing like my Mum’s. But with the littlies awake and all, I put it aside for later modification. *Pls note that my mum wasn’t around during the drama*

After Arianna went to bed and KR was napping, it was time for my lunch so I heated the saucepan and poured the sauce in. Common sense *duh* told me that water dilutes things but somehow stupidity took over for a moment and I didn’t think that although water dilutes things, it doesn’t work well with HOT oil and when I poured some water it, my whole started to sizzle really big time and I wanted to stop it from messing up my kitchen so I lifted the pan to move it away.

But while doing so, it tilted a little and the splashing oil kinda caught fire and voila! I had a Master Chef moment/flame going on!!! Thank god it went out on it own and that it was the small saucepan instead of the big or I would have no hair or eyebrows now. And before I knew it, the fire alarm went off and there I was trying to figure out how the heck to turn if off quickly before it wakes up the girls but nup, the girls slept right through. Phew!!

So there you go….at least I now know that my fire alarm works!
