just remembered one....

the pilot went out on one side of our old stove...
To get the thing going we would have to roll up a piece of paper, light it, light the burner and toss the paper in the sink to put it out.

Well, the trash can is kinda square like the sink, and it sits in front of the sink, so......

The door where the trash can went from pink to gray until we painted it and to this day is still bumpy, scarred from the fire!

The funniest part was trying to reach over the can to get some water to put the fire out....

It took us about a minute to figure out that the can would be pulled awat from the wall to get better access to the faucet..
