Cooking is often a relaxing and fun task that brings family and friends together, and it provides a great way to showcase your creativity and love of good food.
But cooking is also the number one cause of home fires and home injuries. Being mindful while you cook, however, can go a long way to helping prevent these fires.
Here's what you need to know!
• Keep an eye on what you fry
• Be alert when cooking
• Keep things that can catch fire away from cooking area
• Limit distractions when cooking and don’t leave a hot oven or stovetop unattended
