A trick you can do to give you a few seconds is put some forks out knives in an X over the top. It might help prevent it from immediately going into the fire.

There is a german saying "bewachte Milch kocht nie" (watched milk never boils)

In English, at least British English not sure about US, it's 'A watched kettle/pot never boils'

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
