One time my mom was cooking navy beans in ours. She got busy and forgot to put the valve on the top. The beans were making their exit out the tiny opening and covered the entire ceiling over the stove. Never were able to totally remove them. What a mess. Have to laugh about it now.
Was back in the mid 1940’s. The house is still there and probably the remnants of those beans.
The stains of good times and good eats.
