Yesterday evening
This was the scene in the Kitchen last night. My 10 year old built in oven has been a tad fragile of late and last night the door suddenly fell to the floor shattering into 1000 pieces. Luckily no one was hurt.Careful clearing up took ages. I have ordered a new oven today which will be fitted on Easter Eve. Needless to say the Ducal war chest has taken a battering !
Ouch! Appliances do pick their moments don't they. We had an oven element that shorted out spectacularly - sparks shooting across the kitchen - while my mother in law was visiting and on December 22nd. New over arrived in time to cook the Christmas dinner.
ReplyDeleteYikes..... toast in various forms for the next week then!
ReplyDeleteThose glass bits get everywhere , in my experience you will be finding them months hence ! .
ReplyDeleteToast. . . and cans of (cold?) ravioli. . . eaten directly from said can. Takes me right back to undergraduate days.

Ouch! They have their moments. I remember as a kid when my mother's oven shorted out. There was a huge blue-white flash like a halo around the oven, a loud BANG! and we all ran outside in fear for our lives!

Ouch. I assume you're eating cold food until Easter.
