Metal is bad for microwaves…
So as usual the boys get up early and I don’t hear them creating chaos in our house until it is too late. I hear the microwave turn on and I bolt out of bed. The microwave turning on without me being in the kitchen usually means Brandon is up and playing with the microwave yet again. I hate 2. I really hate 2.
Never one to disappoint, he’s climbed up on the cupboards and has just closed the microwave door.
“Look!” he shrieks all proud of himself. He then goes on to blather on about something, but I still can’t understand him because he is still not talking human talk. It’s baby talk.
I quickly open the microwave to find 2 Cutco knives in there. Why knives I’d like to know? Just because they are beside the microwave doesn’t mean they belong in it!
I pull him down chastising him for using the microwave when he points to the yogurt container and yaps excitedly in baby. I feel the yogurt container and it’s hot. It wouldn’t be so bad, but the metal seal inside the container is on still because the yogurt is new. *Aaaahhh* This kid is driving me crazy.
Metal it seems will melt away the plastic stuff they paint on the inside of the microwave revealing some greyish material I am assuming is metal. Now here’s the big question. Is it still safe to use my microwave?
Well, just incase we really didn’t know that metal was bad for our microwave; Brandon proves it once again during lunch.
He climbs up once again on the counter, takes a package of Chili mix that Ryan put on the counter and puts it in the microwave. Flash, sparks and fire ensues.
“Oh Wow!” he squeals in delight.
This kid is killing me.
I’m sure that if I opened the dictionary and looked under the word Terrorism Brandon’s picture will be there alongside his brother.
