My oldest daughter is 5, and last month learned how to make microwave mac and cheese. She thinks its lots of fun. Well yesterday little Maleeya decided she was a big girl too, and was going to make her own lunch ( without asking mommy first). She got herself a pack of mac and cheese, and just slapped the whole thing in the microwave, and hit start.
It instantly started sparking, and zapping and caught on fire, all I saw was my three year old with her hands over her ears, screaming in terror running full speed out of the room. I walked in to see my microwave, smoking with flames inside. (sorry did not get a photo, at that point I was more worried about saving my house from the flames). I ran in got the flames out… ( just two little ones, but lots of smoke).
Once things calmed down a bit, I heard Maleeya say….”wow my mac-n-cheese was super hot”. Yes we then had a long talk about NOT using the microwave.
