Unless your oven is really old, you should have a switch in the electric box to turn off the power to the oven. When I replaced my stove a couple years ago, I had to have that line put in so that the stove could be "plugged in" instead of direct wired to the electric box.

Then I got a pumpkin pie together and was putting it into the pre-heated oven. Somehow I pushed the rack wrong and the front tipped up and the pie filling went all down the back of the oven. I got most of it cleaned up, but there is a vent in the back wall and the pumpkin is in the vent openings. I tried to clean it out and can't get it. There are screws in there, so I'm sure it comes off, but I can't move the stove away from the wall and I think I need to unplug it just to be safe. So I guess that when DH gets home he can help me get it unplugged and take off the vent and clean it.

This was a wonderful day. I had to go to Joann. Yes I had to go. My DH bought me the Go. But forgot to ask about the mats. They don't come with the die you have to buy them. Then I went to the ATM for some cash.On the way home I seen a garage sale. So thought I had time to stop. She didn't have to much to sell.BUT I seen this black/brown case. I ask what was in it. She said just a old sewing machine. I ask to look at this."OMG" it was a old singer. I ask her how much she was asking. She said $10.00 "OMG" again to myself.Sure am happy I went to the ATM.So when I got home ask the DH to come to my truck. "It was so heavy" I
I jumped on the board to email Eddie he told me to email Lostn51.I did. This is what he told me I bought for $10.00
Singer 99 only 10,000 allotted Birthday August 19,1924.and she runs.Will call the man that fixes my other 2 machines. I will post pictures of her later.
What a wonderful day it has been for me.
Merry Christams everyone.Have a wonderful New Year

Here's to a better day - just roll with the flow and enjoy yourself. Some one once said to be like the rock that stands firm, but personally I think it would be better to be like the water that flows over and around the rock and gets to see more things.
