Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holidays. This year, the occasion takes on special significance after last year’s toned-down, pandemic-constrained version. If you choose to gather in celebration this year, remember these few important safety tips to enjoy a happy, healthy Thanksgiving:
- When cooking food, avoid distractions or leaving the kitchen unattended. Dangerous situations can develop in a matter of a few moments.
- Keep flammable objects and children away from cooking areas, such as the stovetop.
- If a cooking pan catches fire, DO NOT use water to try to extinguish the flames. Keep the pan lid nearby and use it to smother the fire.
- Have a home safety plan to address common emergencies – and practice it!
From everyone at Grewal Law – have a happy Thanksgiving!
