Friday the 13th was a very memorable day.
It was the first time I see so much smoke in my house. The neighbours probably thought my house was on fire.
It was also the first time I see charred baos.
Basically, I set the oven for three minutes when one minute would have suffice, according to mum. The two buns were still simmering when I opened the oven door. And the smoke would continue to permeate the house for the rest of the day and the next.
I was only partially successful in removing the stubborn stains that had resulted from the catastrophy. The interiors of the microwave oven remained yellowish despite half an hour of wiping with detergent.
And to think I was the one who taught mum how to use the microwave - through my own understanding of the icons since the manual was not very helpful.

i thought baos should be steamed and not microwaved?
Haha... I was lazy... Thought microwaving would be the easiest way to heat them up... I had good training in breath control after that.
