PINE NUT WARNING!!!

Soooooooo I told you all that I would tell you what I was doing with my basil plant in another post, WEEEEEEEEELLLL this is THAT POST!!!! Soooooooo because of the basil plant, I almost burnt🔥 down the kitchen cooking!!!
.
Here's the story, 

I just wanted to make pesto...it's sooooooooo easy to make...buuuuuut I read that IF you toast the pine nuts till their browned, the pesto is EVEN BETTER!!! Weeeeeelllllll...I really wanted to make my pesto THE BEST THING EVERRRRR...soooooooooo I put them in the oven to toast...
.
 I was toasting pine nuts in the oven to make make homemade pesto cuz I have a basil 🌿 plant, and I went back to talk to Theresa for like ONE MINUTE...it was for her to try my keto peppermint coffee-which you would've thought I had given her POISON the way she sipped it... and MJ yelled from the kitchen, 'whatever your cooking is burning!" so I ran to the kitchen cuz I’m lik,e oh maaaaaannn... pine nuts are soooooooo expensive...this is gonna be such a waste if they're too dark...buuuuuuuuut when I got there I could see flames 🔥 in the oven and I opened the oven and the flames started jumping out, at this point, everything broke out into complete chaos!!!!
.
 All the fire alarms in the house went off, the kids ran outside screaming, the dog starts howling and me...I'm just RUNNING AROUND SCREAMING WHAT DO WE DO??? Someone CALL THE PARAMEDICS!!! CALL THE PARAMEDICS!!! (Yes, i said paradmedics!!! BAHAHAAA!!!) 😱 buuuuuuut THANKFULLY, my sister was there!!! T said GET WATER!!!💦 (I was like, Oooooh yeah WATER!!!)
.
and we started throwing water on it and it went out after a bit! There was a huuuuuuuuge mess, and we were covered in soot, buuuuuuuuut NO DAMAGE and we were all FIIIIIIIIIIIINE!!!!
.
Sooooooo I learned two things on Saturday1. Pine nuts go from raw to BLACK in like a minute...my brother informed me of this...and 2.I don’t do good in emergency situations! I’m liiiiiike call THE PARAMDICS!!!!😂😂😂 You know in the adventures in Odyssey when Zoe and Olivia are doing the radio show and Jay starts to choke annnnnnnd Zoe instantly knows what to do buuuuuut Olivia is just running around like a chicken with it's head cut off??? Weeeeeeelllll my sister was zoe and I WAS OLIVIA!!! It was a good thing she was there!!! You know I was freaked out because there are NO PICTURES to record the event!!!!
.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeellllll I know it's pretty funny and we've cracked up about it A LOT since Saturday buuuuuuuuuuuut in ALL SERIOUSNESS, I am soooooooooo thankful for God's protection!!! That is the second fire we have delt with in the last 4 months and they are FREAKY!!!  FIrst one had NOTHING to do with me...did I tell you guys about the one at our hotel room this summer???) I'm pretty scared of candles at this point!!! Buuuuuuuuut thank you Jesus for looking out for annnnnnnnnd....
