Sheila's secret recipe

1 pair of wet shoes

1 tropical country where nothing dries

1 gas oven and the perfectly logical plan to dry shoes inside it

Turn on gas and immediately turn off. Insert shoes.

Become distracted by other tasks and turn oven back on to preheat for a cake (do not remove shoes)

Bake 40 minutes

Add 8 people wandering around mission looking for the "electrical fire smell"

Stir in one electrician called by landlord

Mix vigorously with comments such as "no, my power's fine in here" until the source of the smell is discovered.

Remove from oven when shoes have completely melted onto bottom of oven.

Serves the entire mission staff with plenty of laughter.
