SEVIERVILLE, Tenn — Ember the firehouse Dalmatian and the Sevierville Fire Department wish everyone a happy Easter along with a few safety tips.
SFD said to keep flammable items such as oven mitts, kitchen towels, wooden utensils, food wrappers, and curtains away from cooking areas.
When frying anything, be cautious of grease fires. SFD said in the event of a small grease fire, smother the flames by sliding a lid over the pan and turning off the burner.
Small oven fires can also be put out by turning off the heat and leaving the door closed.
SFD also assured everyone that Ember did not eat the chocolate bunny from her Easter basket.
