IFA Latest

At IFA we have these neat little milk house candles which I believe are very over priced. I suppose lots of other people do too because we have sold a total of like 5 in the past 4 months. We have these ones in little shot glass size that we sorta a free-bee, so we have started burning those to start to get rid of some. We place them on a little edge that happens to be by the paper towels. ( you can see where this is going...) we have joked for the past 2 months that one day when we pull those paper towels off the rack they will catch fire. Well, that just happened on monday. The thing is no one touched the paper towels and me and my boss had a line of customers and I look up and WHAM there is this huge flame. It took me all about 3 seconds to realize that it was the paper towels on  FIRE!!! The whole roll in flames. I said a little panicky with my arms out like I was protecting someone from behind me " oh my goodness! The paper towels are on fire!!" That instant my boss bryce who was closer then me said "OH" and rushed to put them out. Once they were out and our store smelled burned I started laughing! I was giggling all day long every time I would see a paper towel or candle I would just start up again. OH and of course I took the opportunity to tell everyone at work what happened. I just couldnt get over our little expressions, the way we acted when we saw the flames. Thankfully, no one was hurt and out store didnt burn down. But you can be certain that we have moved the candles into a better burning spot! :)
