The culprit:










The damage:


I was taking the glass plate out of the microwave to wash it down thoroughly and, of course, being the clutz that I am, I dropped the plate smack on the top of the smooth-top stove. It just figures that instead of the $20 glass plate breaking, I instead broke the $400 glass-plate that covers the stove. And of course the plate didn't even have a chip! Now I have to try and get the part ordered and fixed before we host Thanksgiving here. Whoops...
