Guest guest Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 I'm careful with my Pyrex. I never take it from the fridge or freezer and place in a hot oven. Yet I know so many who do this. Having it expode is very scary. I use clay pots and I'm very careful with those too. I see people empty the hot glass coffee pot and run it under cold water. I run away when I see that. I dropped a unopened glass Coke bottle many year ago, it exploded and some of the flying glass chunks hit me on the hand and gave me a few terrible cuts.

Guest guest Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 I am sure we can all relate in some way! The worst I had was one Thanksgiving when I was 15. I was washing dishes, heard a loud pop and looked down at my hand which was now gushing blood. The glass broke as I was cleaning it up. Needless to say, my mom and I spent a couple of hours in the ER getting my finger stitched. Fun. My son (age 7) once dropped a pyrex refrigerator dish full of spaghetti on the floor. That was fun to clean up! More recently I dropped a bottle of soda (actually, it magically fell out of the fridge!) and it shattered on the floor at my bare feet. Luckily I only had sticky feet and a sticky mess to clean up along with all of those shards of glass (with some ending up in my feet and hands as I cleaned). What a mess we found when we later moved the fridge! Dog and cat hair stuck all over the sticky mess that I missed. Quote
Guest guest Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 Ugh! The thing I love (sarcasm) is how whenever I break any glass in the kitchen, all 3 cats and the dog come RUNNING to see what's going on -- and to step in it. Ugh...
