The serene tranquility of The Lord's Day was broken this afternoon.



Matthew, while preparing some funnel cakes with the All American Funnel Cake Company Funnel Cake machine, managed to start a grease fire on the stove.

Matt, with that eternally cool head on his shoulders, began laughing and calmly said:

"I don't think this is going to work."

Indeed, the fire only grew larger and managed to take out the fan above the stove.





Richard ran in and emptied the entire contents of our fire extinguisher on the blaze.



Fortunately, nothing was permanently damaged (except for the fan); although we did have to evacuate the apartment for a couple minutes while the unbreathable fire extinguisher dust settled.



Oh, Matthew!
