Old wivesâ tale (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_wives'_tale) â See also: Saw (saying), Maxim (philosophy), Aphorism.

The intention was nicely baked potatoes, but after one exploded, dinner changed to super-stuffed potato skins :-)

Yes, holes were poked prior to baking, but apparently not enough. Youâd think these potentially dangerous objects would come with all sorts of carefully worded warning labels, properly vetted by the potato councilâs legal team, with accompanying professional and artistic graphics, understandable by people speaking any language, whether or not theyâre literate!

Oh well, the oven needed to be cleaned anyway.

Happy Friday, everyone!
