A melt Down?

So I ruin my first container! 

I was just putting away left over mashed potatoes

And We don't have a lot of counter space.

So I put the container on the stove top.  I didn't turn it off.  But It wasn't hot to me, for I had it on warm.

But there was definitely a hole in it.  I am good about saving every single drop of left overs, but I didn't want to deal with it and I wasn't planing on using the potatoes later.  So I threw it out. Hole and all.
