Re: What about cooking disasters?
My brother was once cooking a roast for a the whole family for a birthday. The oven door glass exploded for some reason. All outwards, and the meat was covered. But ovens turn out not to work so well if they've got a bloody great hole in the door, even if you've temporarily gaffer-taped some wood over it...
Was this karma? After all, it was roast horse, brought back from a trip to France.
