  • Oh gosh!! I hope no one was hurt. At least Jazzy had NOTHING to do with this chaos this time around :)

  • I don't know if I should laugh…....you have a great sense of humor JM........I'm glad it wasn't a total disaster.

  • yikes, glad everything turned out in the end

  • Wow - lt looks like Easter started out beautifully in the 1st pic - love the table and baskets photo. The poor marshmallow dish is so sad. :( I can sympathize with you - Last Thanksgiving - I burned the garlic bread (real bad) - smoke encompassed the entire house! Opened the windows on that bone-chilling day to air out the smoke. No one complained either - it happens… Glad no one got

  • I have had that happen but maybe not to the extent of burning as you had. The problem is the sugar in the marshmellows, especially if the oven was on broil or high heat. Next time stand there while the marshmellows brown, doesn't take long, and they also expand so don't use too many. I use the mini marshmellows, they work best. If they burn again, just scrape them off, (comes off easy) and add more, I have done them many times for Thanksgiving. The problem is also that you get so busy trying to finish up dinner that your forget and leave them in the oven too long. Remember, stand and watch, It works!!!!!

  • @JazzysMom:

    Oh, nummers! I just love anything blackened! LOL! :D :D :D

    Glad everything turned out well!

  • Glad everything worked out okay.

    While reading it, I had a cartoon bubble: your two beasties raiding the easter baskets trying to get the stuffed bunnies, while all the humans were battling stove fire.

    I know! I know! I swear, I knew what I was doing! I've been baking sweet potatoes like that for about 30 yrs! I use a LOT of the mini-marshmallows because they DO expand and cover the entire top like a crust. The kids love it, and it ensures that every kid gets golden marshmallows with their pototoes {remember, I have six kids and there are always guests who want marshmallow topping too,LOL}

    I don't know what happened – I did step away for a second to grab a basket for the rolls, and my dd {20 yrs} and niece {32 yrs} were by the oven. DD yelled, "Mom, the oven's on fire!!!".

    Crazy. :D

    LOL, I did worry a bit about the stuffed animals earlier, but at the time of the fire, the B's were outside!

    @kembe - Very True Kembe, here is a link on looking for a responsible breeder. https://bconc.org/finding-breeders-red-flags There are many scammers out there, don't fall for one.. or a person that is not a responsible breeder.

    @Kembe, nice post! We've gone to solid food chopped up in a food processor, but we're grinding it a bit more course as we go. So far, no puppies are choking, but good to know!

    @Ashmoore92 It got put on the "back burner" ... I have some, but not enough for a book. I'll circle back around to it.
