What did you burn over the holidays?

[idgiehkt]

C'mon, fess up.

For me, it was a couple of batches of brownies. Just on the fringe between overcooked and actually burned. Didn't taste completely charred, but were so dry that they hardened up and had tooth-breaking potential within a half an hour.

1. Third degree burned my finger

on the heating element of my toaster oven.

[idgiehkt]

3. wow.

I have never had a third degree burn. I have heard that those are not as painful because of the fact that the nerves are killed, but somehow I don't believe it. How on earth did that happen?

5. It was very small

I was pulling something out of the toaster oven, and the heating element was still red and I accidentally bumped it. The element must have been about 500 degrees because I nearly burned all the flesh off my knuckle.

It hurt like hell, I still very much had nerve endings.

2. Bridges.

But isn't that what the holidays are for?

13. Just joking. I couldn't resist when I saw the subject of your post.

We actually had a damn good Christmas, and I hope you did as well.

9. I didn't *burn* anything,

but an innocent chocolate-date loaf got undercooked, collapsed on itself, and had to be finished in the microwave.

[ghostsofgiants]

11. Every bridge that I crossed, to find some beautiful place to get lost

(Sorry, too much Elliott Smith, haha.)

Just a cd. Nothing else worth mentioning.

[idgiehkt]

12. now there's an answer I didn't anticipate. A CD.

this is just a copycat off of GiC's that I expected to get two replies and sink like a stone, lol.

[ghostsofgiants]

14. Haha...

I had actually burned it before Christmas, using my last blank cd, but one of the tracks got fucked up somehow and I had to wait until I got home where I had more blanks, haha. It was supposed to be a gift for a friend, but she has to wait until I get back to the city now.

23. The usual... I burn everything

My local fire department would be ever so grateful if I learned to appreciate eating out.

I just ruined another pot last night... it wasn't even a month old yet. At least I didn't set fire to anything this time.

Am I the only one that's in the habit of taking the batteries out of all the smoke detectors as a general rule before going into the kitchen?

[buddhamama]

24. candles and incense

:)

[mondo joe]

25. Some wood in the fireplace. But that's all. My cheesy grits were

perfection.

[tigereye]

26. nah, that was Thanksgiving

set off the smoke alarm, too.

No foods were harmed this Christmas....

[Solon]

27. An effigy of Jesus...

28. More calories than I consumed, somehow.

According to the scale, anyway. I just got brave enough today to look. I think my body is insane.:crazy:

[Beausoir]

29. My liver?

[RedStateShame]

30. DVDs. Until my burner broke.

Now my stepbrothers have to wait to get the Lost and Found Video series.
