A woman planned on letting her husband know she's pregnant by putting a single bun in their oven at home, and while it didn't exactly go as planned, the pregnancy reveal ended up going viral. The woman, Liz Rose Short, explained in a video shared on TikTok that one day when her husband was on his way home from work, she put a bun in the oven but then he called her and asked if she picked up their Target order (which included groceries that they needed to make dinner that night). She had forgotten about it, so she got in her car and went to pick it up, forgetting that she left the bun in the oven (the oven was off).
While Liz was out, her husband brought the kids home and decided to preheat the oven. She then received a call from her husband while waiting at Target. In the background, she could hear the fire alarm going off because of — you guessed it — the bun she left in the oven.
Her husband was baffled, wondering why his wife left a single "roll" in the oven without even using a pan. "Now I need to run home and be like, 'surprise, I'm pregnant!'" Liz explained in the video. Though she "messed up [her] own pregnancy reveal," the video she made showing her husband's reaction was still cute and ended up going viral.
Liz recorded her husband taking the completely burnt bun out of the oven. "I love you so much," he said as he opened the oven to show her what happened while she was gone. "Why would you put a single roll in the oven?"

"It's not a roll, it's a bun," Liz told him. "OK?" her husband responded, probably wondering why the terminology really mattered.
"What did you pull out of the oven?" Liz prompted him. "A burnt roll," he responded, still not understanding what she was getting at.
"It's not a roll, it's a bun," Liz said again, laughing. She tried to spell it out for him, eventually saying, "We have a bun in the oven." He still appeared to not get it, saying, "I just pulled it out."
Finally, she told him: "Codie, we're having a baby."
