My pie is destroyed
« on: 13 January 2017, 12:39:01 »

I put a pie in the microwave for my lunch, set the timer and went upstairs to put something away. Got a bit distracted but no matter, pie will still be warm. Came back down, eventually, to the smell of something nasty. Pie was still rotating and had started to smoke. WTF?
How? Why? Hmmmm......then it dawned on me. I had put the PIN that unlocks my iPad into the microwave keypad and pressed start.

Getting worse.  :(

Pies are full of bull scrotum and unexplained 'connective tissue' so you probably had a lucky escape.

Make yourself a nice lentil sandwich instead. :y

At least you took it out of the foil tray, otherwise you might not have had a down stairs to come down to...

How? Why? Hmmmm......then it dawned on me. I had put the PIN that unlocks my iPad into the microwave keypad and pressed start.

Getting worse.  :(
That might explain why I have to wait 8 minutes to get my Cash out of the ATM.

I did put some Frankfurters in the Microwave once, set it to 40 mins, thinking it was 4, after about 20 mins released what had happened, open the microwave, nothing, gone, no frankfurters.....  :-\ on closer inspection the sausages had blown into tiny mush and stuck themselves all over the microwave walls.  ::)

Years ago, my landlord and I got back from a gentlemens evening out, feeling peckish, so put some bangers under the grill...

Probably would have been ok on a round pie as you can put foil in a microwave, as long as its no where near the sides.

Ive got a 'grilling plate' for my microwave, well its actually two metal plates that clamp either side of the food.
Insert 2 rashes of bacon, microwave for 2/3 mins, bacon done and browned as well  :y

I learnt many moons ago that cooking when back from the pub is a bad idea  :-[
Takeaway is far safer  :y

One Friday Night absolutely smashed, I picked up a Kebab walking back from the Pub, went to bed, slept like a baby, woke up, stinking hangover, didn't remember much about anything, lying there trying to plunk up the energy and strength to go to the loo, remember kept thinking to myself, what is that smell?, eventually pulled the covers off to get up and, screamed like a baby, looked like I'd been shot in the chest overnight with a 12 Bore Shotgun,  :o, dried kebab and red chili sauce stuck all over my chest  :-[
