Attempted to saute something for self for Shabbat dinner. Started impressive pyrotechnic display before getting to the "something" part of "saute something". Nearly burned apartment down. Woke all neighbors and dead with smoke detector for over five minutes. Am now microwaving an Amy's meal for Shabbat dinner to eat by myself. Hate kitchens, cooking, and food more than ever.

Still not sure what went wrong.

1. safe ways to put out a grease fire are pouring baking soda over it or putting a lid over the pot. or remove anything flammable from the vicinity and wait till it burns out. just ask anyone Ive ever lived with, i've started a lot of fires.

2. when you evenutally want hot food again, save your olive oil for your salad and use an oil that takes high heat better, and keep your burner on low. even i can't start a fire that way, and i have been told that i can burn ANYTHING in a kitchen.

3. summer is a good time from cold foods. save fuel! and it is always a good time for Amy's :)
