Reminder: Peak Time for
Home Cooking Fires Is Here

Winter is the worst time of year for home fires, especially in December and during major holidays. It’s also when home cooking fires peak — a good reminder to stay mindful in the kitchen as things get busy.

We’re sharing a cute YouTube video below as a lighthearted way to help keep safety top of mind this season.
