The 'F' word

"FIRE! FIRE!" ---this is the one thing you never want to hear your child yell as they run into the room.
We had a fire in the house yesterday; I was on the phone in the living room when some carelessly placed papers caught fire from a candle in the kitchen. Thank God the kids were at the table when it started on the counter and Joelle noticed the flames. She ran to get me and I dashed for the kitchen. I wapped it out with a tea towel. In the end no harm was done; just a huge lesson learned.
Be careful with candles and paper!!!
Then could hardly believe it while baking some cookies today I almost started another fire--- I found a stray receipt that had been caught in the oven door, it was almost charcoal!!!
