Note to self:

When making a special surprise chocolate tuxedo cheesecake for husband, before putting cheesecake in oven, remove all oven racks and check entire oven interior thoroughly for foreign objects, as it would appear crayons can roll to the back of the oven and situate themselves under the edge of the rack in such a manner as to be practically invisible to the casual oven inspector.

Although a woman whose sharp sense of smell, quick thinking, and housewifely ingenuity allows her to not only save her kitchen from catching on fire but also actually SAVE THE CHEESECAKE when an overlooked wayward crayon catches fire in her oven might be said to be The Bomb, NOT being forced to battle a minature conflagration of wax and paper with a squirt bottle and a washcloth is preferable.
