• So Tues morning I”m at my desk, eating my breakfast and going thru my email when one of the girls in my dept. go up to me and says: There’s a fire in the kitchen.

  
  

  I’m thinking she’s exagerrating and say: You mean, there’s smoke in the kitchen.

  
  

  NO…I mean there’s a FIRE in the kitchen.

  
  

  So I head over to the kitchen… and I can smell the smoke.  Doh!  And sure enough, something in the toaster oven is on fire.  I can see the flames.  And I’m not talking about the little flame from a lighter…I”m talking the whole inside of the oven was lit up. 

  
  

  So I see the nearest fire extinguisher, unlock it, pull the pin, aiming it at the oven… carefully pulling down the door, half expecting a explosion of flames ala Backdraft and instead what happens is that the two english muffins without the heat of the oven fueling it are barely on fire.  I blow it out with one breath.

  
  

  One of the salesgirls came in to take the blame for it.  Hahahahhahahaah.

  Email later that day:

  
  

  We now have both – a Toaster Oven and a Sliced Bread Toaster. Use them accordingly.

  
  

  Also, the Toaster Oven has a “Timer” that will automatically turn off the oven – Please Always Use the Timer.

  
  

  
  

  Any questions or instructions needed please see me.Thank you,
