Here's What That Drawer Under Your Oven Is Actually For

I've been cooking for most of my adult life, and I've never actually been completely sure just what that drawer under the oven is for. It seems like a good enough place to store baking pans, but that also feels like wasted space, or that it should actually be for something besides storage. I've never really used that drawer for anything. Honestly, most of the time I forget it's even there until I can't find the muffin tins, and my husband tells me to look in the oven drawer.
