Family turned the oven on accidently while I was proofing focaccia dough.
We added stainless steel mixing bowls to our shopping list.

This exact same thing — including the instant order of stainless steel bowls — happened to me. Except I was the family member.

A lesson my mom drilled into me since I was little- ALWAYS CHECK THE OVEN BEFORE TURNING IT ON.
I’m 35yo and she STILL tells me lol. I have anxiety about it now and check multiple times, but hey- at least this will never happen.

I put a post it over the controls when I have dough in there. I’m sorry that happened! 😭😭

My husband did this to me ONCE. And once only. He got in so much poop. I will never forget. So he always checks now.

I hit Broil instead of Proof once. That was fun.

After my mom came home one afternoon to find burnt towels on one side of the walkway and blood all over the other, two rules were instituted: 1. we had to open the oven and look inside of it before turning it on (so my brother wouldn’t set my sister’s homemade goat cheese on fire again.) And 2. I wasn’t allowed to go up the stairs in my rollerblades (I had split my lip falling down the steps after I alerted my sister that the goats had gotten out again. Come to think of it, maybe it was all the goats’ fault, not 2 teenagers and a nine year old.)
