hot lessons

I was pretty tired today. And when I’m tired I’m not as careful as I usually am. I forgot to turn off the stove. My rice scoop melted into the pan and the apartment filled with smoke and the smell of burnt plastic. Strangely, the smoke detectors didn’t go off. Wonder who replaced those batteries…

I ruined the pan though. I probably could have saved it with some good scrubbing but sometimes I worry about ingesting plastic particles especially after they’ve been incinerated. I ordered a fancy replacement. The Gordon Ramsay one. My negligence and I don’t deserve it, but I promise to be more careful, to cook healthy and delicious things, and to try not to be something I’m not.
