My dad left some gravy to boil on the stove after dinner, intending to switch it off in a couple of minutes. He went into his room and promptly forgot all about it.
I was lying on the sofa happily reading my CLEO mag when I smelled something burning. Looked up from my magazine and my heart nearly stopped! Smoke was billowing out of the kitchen in waves! I sprinted into the kitchen to turn off the stove. Thank heavens nothing has caught fire, only the pot containing the gravy was ruined.
When I saw the smoke, I really thought the kitchen was on fire. Luckily there was only smoke. If it had been untended to for a while longer, a fire would probably have been started.
I don't know why I continued to read in the living room after dinner, as my usual practice is to retreat and hide in my room after dinner, and then no one would have caught the problem until it's too late.
Maybe my mum's still watching over the family, even in heaven. Thank you, mum.
