    I love how this is like a newspaper headline. And you know what….this is exactly the kind of story I’m likely to be assigned by the local newspaper. I always get the quirky human interest stories. Not that I’m complaining. You know me. I thrive on quirky.

    That was Ben’s idea, the newspaper headline!

    I would have loved it if you were my neighbor and rang me up to interview me about this misadventure. It was really humiliating. We googled how to start a fire in a wood burning stove but the internet directions said nothing about a vent. We were smoked out but thankfully our fire fighters were very nice about it.

    You and your local firefighters. First the Indian curry gone bad and now the wood burning stove.

    Just don’t try to make curry over your wood burning stove. That might prove a REALLy bad combination!

    I love this one. It will be a story for the ages - like my story of the bloody bagel - you remember that one, right?
