In which we learn that Fiona can not, in fact, boil water

[semperfiona]

I started smelling a rather strong odor of burning and went out to the kitchen to check. I had just put a pan of water on the stove to boil to fix myself instant navratan korma, but I had turned on the wrong burner and was heating an empty teakettle instead. Brand new teakettle, too. I think I was in time to avert disaster, but we shall soon see.
