How to set the stove on fire

First you must be hungry, second have at least one person watch while you cook. Next grab your new nonstick skillet, an egg, and olive oil well any oil I just happen to use extra virgin olive oil.
Now pour oil in skillet to heat up, preferably on med heat
Next crack egg on a flat surface to prevent any shell from ending up in your mouth. Sizzle, oh yes the pan was the perfect temperature, now its time for the Grand Finale, take the skillet in one hand flip your wrist to flip said egg over. Now you have everyones attention, until said egg slides out of skillet and into the stove eye along with said olive oil causing a fireball to erupt causing heat to singe eyebrows.
All while your audience runs around screaming and searching for a fire extinguisher and dialing 911.
With one big puff of air the fire is out, house is smoke filled and audience now laughing over the charred remains of what used to be an egg and your pride.

  2. Well I have used an easy bake many times perhaps that is the problem of all my culinary shortcomings. Why do I keep turning the stove on well my only guess is I am reliving my firefighting days enjoying the smoke and heat.
