Fire safety tips for making this v-day romantic, not frantic. Keep that romantic candlelight away from anything flammable.. Don't let mylar helium balloons fly outdoors (mylar conducts electricity and the balloons will explode if they hit a power line). If you decide a bbq is a perfect idea with our mild weather, use cooking oil and lighter fluid sparingly in outdoor fire/bbq pits. Ensure that meat or fish is thawed before placing it into hot oil either on the stove or in a deep fryer (the ice in the frozen food instantly turns to steam, causing the oil to splatter onto your cooking flame and igniting).
