it burns us!
No elven ropes here. Just lousy popcorn with terrible directions:
It still had ten seconds to go...
The only pop-action was of me popping it into the appliance de la muerte. Monk and I went for a quick garbage dump and came back to a smoky house and a near exploding micro.
So, I flung the windows open, cranked the fans up, and gasped for air. Then I threw the offensive package outside and doused it in water. And then I cleaned the unfortunate crime scene with bleach and oxy-clean. It still smells gosh awful and looks like so.
Now what? *B
now, what brand of popcorn was this exactly? wow! lots of drama for an ordinary tuesday night.
ReplyDeleteNow THAT has got to STINK!!
ReplyDeletewow terrible.. burnt popcorn smells the worst.. glad you and will are ok.. and microvawe is reparable.. heard of it exploding in situations like this ..
ReplyDeleteps.. cannt wait to see you .. so soon :)
Have you recovered? The smell will linger for days. You obviously need a Gold Canyon candle--mulled cider for instance--to alleviate the pain!
ReplyDeleteYikes that's scary! Glad you're all ok. As for the smell...good luck with that one!
ReplyDeleteoh no!! I hate the smell of burt popcorn!! lol
ReplyDeletePan can use the microwave to pop popcorn, but I can't. I have to be all eyes on it until it is time to come out. Glad you got back before you had a real travesty on your hands.
ReplyDeletehaha! Than did that when I lived in C4! It melted the top of the inside and Arbor Cove had to replace the microwave! glad yours didn't need to be replaced.
ReplyDeleteOh no!! There are few smells as awful as burnt microwave popcorn--so sorry. Have you tried baking soda? Maybe some lemon juice too?
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Oh, that's just six ways of wrong, sister. Go the movies and buy the real stuff as a little treat for yourself. I probably would have just chucked the microwave rather than clean it. I'm lazy like that.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I didn't know it could do that. Please let us know what brand, so we don't use it. That company deserves a nice phone call. That's such a gross smell too.
ReplyDeleteyikes! burnt popcorn is the absolute worst! did you use any pirate lingo to express your frustrations?
ReplyDeleteEverybody has already said it. There's nothing worse than burnt popcorn. Sorry. I'm one of those who has to stand right by the side and listen for the popping to slow or I burn it every time. (Not to the extent of your manigicent burn).
ReplyDeleteThis makes me feel a little better... I thought I was the only one who couldn't even make microwave popcorn. Although mine is due to lack of cooking talent rather than an explosive appliance...
