My mother would put me on a wooden box at the stove and tell me to call her if certain things would happen. Like if the steam turns blue, that is danger!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was like any new bride, who said, 'I'm going to cook for my man.' In fact, once I started a small kitchen fire in a pan. Smoke was pouring from the pan, and I got really scared. Right next to our stove is a small fire extinguisher. You know, easy access.
When I have an idea, I turn down the flame, as if it were a little alcohol stove, as low as it will go. Then it explodes and that is my idea.
If there was a fire at my house I would throw more things on it. The only thing I would take out? Myself!
I know from personal experience, if a chef yelled at me in a kitchen, the first thing I'd want to do is hit them with a pot.
I want witchcraft so bad that I can't stand it. I have wands in my apartment. And I use them sometimes. I walk into the kitchen with my wand, and I come out with something on a platter and I say, 'See, magic happens.' Works every time.
My mom was paranoid about my safety.
I just never saw my mother in any other room but the kitchen. There were always pots going.
I always feel the danger because you might always be subject to an unexpected or emergency event.
You can tell it's good if you light it and a blue flame comes up; that means it's good moonshine and it won't make you go blind.
I had this whole ritual with my mother making the bed with me inside it so I would be invisible.
