DON'T DO THIS

In case any of my fine readers are curious, there is a HUGE difference between 2:30:00 and 2:30 when selecting a microwave time setting.

One cooks your oatmeal perfectly and one does not. Especially if you were to walk away after setting the time.

Feast your eyes on (what was supposed to be) my breakfast. Bet you've never seen steel cut oatmeal that looks like this.

The positive? Although my wing of the office filled with a bit of smoke, the fire department didn't make an appearance.

(At press time, the Marketing Department still smelled awful)

Watch that timer.
As you were.
