Happy Thanksgiving!!

Be safe this Thanksgiving. Cooking is the leading cause of fires in the home and of fire injuries, so please follow these safety tips:

• Make sure your oven is empty before turning it on.
• Wear short or tight-fitting sleeves when cooking.
• Turn pot handles inward over the stove.
• Remember to “stand by your pan” and stay in the kitchen when boiling, frying or broiling.
• Use a timer when baking or roasting and never leave the house with the oven running.
• The best way to respond to a stovetop fire is to “put a lid on it” and turn off the heat.
• The best way to respond to an oven or broiler fire is to keep the doors closed and turn off the heat.
• If the fire is not quickly snuffed out, leave the house and call 911 from outside.
