Smokey

Had a bit of a mishap today in the kitchen. Was preparing a grill and put a whole plate full with meat (suck on that you vegetarians :), and stuck it in the oven.

Then I relaxed and went on my computer to watch yet another episode of US Masterchef. After some minutes I realized it smelled funny. Smoke! And not the cigarette smoke that is ever so common in my flat, but smokey-smoke. Oh dear, the oven was smoke-filled.

45 minutes later, with the fan on full blast, it was still smelly. And the cleaning lady was here earlier today, leaving the flat with an aroma of cleaning liquid. Darn!

Anyway, fortunately I have another oven, so eventually we could enjoy a nice dinner. But as usual, the guest had to work for the food.

Nah, it was fat stuck to the walls. Took me ages to clean it!

I know, it's a friggin joke. But at least I can run a program that losens the fat and drops it on the bottom of the oven and clean it up from there. Still, I had to scrub like a maniac.
