Sad Day

Our oven died.

And it could be quite some time before we get a new one. So... no delicious cupcakes, for a few weeks at least. =(

We're trying to be creative with our cooking though. Tonight we made chili in the crock pot. Other than that, we've been doing a lot of toaster oven and microwave cooking. Any creative ideas out there? I'm being deprived of many of my favorite foods at the moment.

And of course as soon as I can't have them, I crave them even more. Quesadillas, fried zucchini, muffins, pancakes, cupcakes, etc.

Our household problems tend to come in threes, about once a year. So far the oven's gone, and it looks like our bread machine is dead as well. What's the last appliance going to be?

Are we really that good at killing things around here? =p

  1. you don't happen to have a woodstove, do you? you can do a lot of stove-top cooking on one. I've never tried, but there are such things as Dutch ovens, I think you put them in the coals..or something.
    heh, I'd be lost without my stove/oven...

  2. We don't, but at some point our house did have one, because there's a vent/chimney thing for one.
    Joni has very kindly let us borrow an electric burner, so at least we have that. =D
