The day our house almost burned down to the ground

The evidence. The pot at the bottom was on the stove and we forgot all about it until our smoke alarm start ringing non-stop. We rushed downstairs where smoke covered the whole lower floor, we could hardly breathe. My mom, in a state of panic grabbed the pot with the above white rag and dropped it to the floor. The carpet was burned through the floor and the flying oil burned my mom’s hands. It was a horrible day. It took a long time to clean the soot from the kitchen and some of it was even carried to the hallway and parts of the living room. It was a miracle no one was seriously hurt and that the house didn’t burn down.
