Here is one of many,
I put on some eggs to boil in a little cast iron pot, went into the bedroom to watch TV and fell asleep this was around 8pm, my husband Dan came home from bowling around midnight to the flame still under the pot and exploded charred eggs all over the kitchen, they were black, he HATES hard boiled eggs including the smell, well he said this was really bad, he found me sleeping and just cleaned it up best he could, when he tells me about it in the am I am horrified and thankful I didn't start a fire. I always use cast iron cookware now, its so durable
