"It was only a *small* fire, Mom."

Yes, that IS what Ana said to me this afternoon when I got back from the store. 

For real.

I left she & her best friend to take the last batch of cookies out of the oven.  (Yes, Dave was home-thank goodness!)

Imagine my horror to get this text: 
"Kitchen fire, but everyone & most everything is OK." 

WHAT?!   (That was my response text to Dave-& he didn't answer me!!  I had to call home & find out that a hot pad had accidently fallen on the oven coil when they were removing the cookies.)

The cookies were a hit, & the girls made some memories (some better than others, lol) this afternoon!
