The blackest day of our mission.
This was not a success story. I was hurrying to make the breakfast for the zone leaders conference. I made the omelet with 18 eggs, but it in the open and thought I pushed the Bake button and the timer button, but somehow, I pushed the clean button. There was no safety latch. The oven immediately started the cleaning cycle. I had gone to get dressed, and when I returned to the kitchen, there was the blackest, smelliest smoke bellowing from the oven. We could not turn it off. It had to finish its cycle about 3 1/2 hours. We had neighbors in the building coming to see if we were okay. Luckily we were able to disconnect the fire alarm. This was the result of my efforts.
