You've made us all more aware of what our iron is up to.....!

That's scary!

That's the reason I have my iron on a serge protector in a socket that's connected to the wall switch. A lamp is attached also. If the lamp is on so is the iron. If the lamp is off, so is the iron. Then I check it twice before I leave the room!

Glad you are safe.

I do the same Sillysusan! I also never leave the kitchen when I boil eggs or put the teapot on the stove.

Oh no!
Glad the bottle was the only thing damaged!

Good laugh for today...….we all know how stupid feels.

Oh wow. That looks like something that would happen to me....

Yikes! So glad it wasn't worse!

Thank you SillySusan for the great 'lamp' idea!

I never trust the auto on/off. Just make sure iron in unplugged !

Oops. I can't quilt if I don't have an iron. You'll have to replace it quickly.:D
