I almost set the office on fire...

I'm never going to use the microwave oven again.

After a three-day vacation with my family I was back at work last Wednesday. I happily hopped to the pantry to reheat the ensaymada I brought for my breakfast. I put it on a plate, set the timer and went back to my seat.

And then the unthinkable happened! There was yellow smoke coming out of the oven and burnt smell. That woke me up. I quickly stood up and ran back to the pantry, opened the oven and to my horror - charred bread and broken plate.

Of course I had to clean the mess I made. We had to open the office doors (for the lack of windows) and decrease the room temperature. Oh and the most humiliating part, our neighbor complained about the smoke and had to send the building admin to check. 

So that's how this week of madness started. Good thing I had food with me to bribe them and make them forget about that incident.

 Lesson learned: just eat the food and don't bother reheating.
