I learned several important things this morning that I felt I should share with the world at large. Listed in no particular order:
- A $25 microwave doesn't understand that "Reheat" for a Cinnamon Roll means 20 seconds, not 20 minutes.
- Sugar burns.
- Burning sugar produces yellow smoke.
- I don't know if yellow sugar smoke is toxic, but it stinks like heck.
- You can't make smoke disappear by spraying "room freshener," so don't try. Imagine burnt sugar and a burning hospital, and you'll get a visual on the smell.
- The fire alarms on the 9th floor of a certain gold-plated building in North Dallas do not consider burning sugar to be a threat.
- The fire department will not show up unless a fire alarm goes off.
- Burning sugar smells.
