Part of the Passover preparation is to burn a hard boiled egg and place it on the "seder" plate with other symbolic foods. So, I placed my egg on the burner (medium heat, I didn't want to do anything rash  ) and went on with my other kitchen chores. When I left the room for a few minutes to attend to other chores (euphemism for going to the washroom  ), I heard this explosion  Happy Passover. gerry

ROTFL, Gerry. This may just be taking research a tad too far. But good to know it was worth it! LabRat

Hapy Passover, Gerry! LOL. Sorry that happened, but thanks for the laugh. When I started reading, considering the title I thought you carved Lois out of an egg. Julie (looking forward to lots of matzas )

Ah man, you should have taken Pictures!!! The vision that came to mind had me rolling.
What's funny is I think we're on the same vibe as I almost burned down my kitchen the other day when I was using my crock pot. I usually set in on the stove top for safety, but one of the back burners was accidently switched on and the crock extension cord was laying across that burner.
The cord burns in half, sparks the breakers,and catches on fire. It was scary for all of 5 minutes, but now I have this horrible black burn stain from the plastic on my stove top.
ERRRRG! and I know egg stain is ridiculously hard to get out to!
Hopefully we'll make it through our holidays this year.

TEEEEJ, I can't believe what you did. And I'm wondering if I can use it in the fanfic I've been working on. I have Lois and a crock pot and I wanted her to make something so easy turn into a disaster. So, if it works for me, can I use it, please, pretty please?  gerry

lol, you two!
And see, this is what's so useful about being a writer -- *no* experience is ever entirely wasted.

He grinned at her - a goofy, Clark Kent kind of a grin. "I have a gift for understatement."

"I have a...."
