I have a glasstop stove. I burned up a brand new oven glove on it becauuse sm

In Reply to: Anyone do anything really "dumb" before - I am such a dodo

I have no concept of "surface is HOT." It stunk up the place and ruined a new set of oven gloves, but it was okay. I am very careful of it now, because a HOT SURFACE light means it is HOT.

duh...but it was a brain fart.

When you say gas stove, are you referring to the same stove you cook on? I ...
just recently transcribed a dictation about a patient who used her gas stove to heat her house, I suppose because her energy company shut her service off, and as a result, she suffered from carboxyhemoglobinemia or carbon monoxide poisoning with resultant symptoms including tiredness, dizziness, and eventually unconsciousnesss requiring hospitalization.  Stay warm all, but please be careful.
I keep a little travel pack in my purse and one in the glove box..bought them at Wal Mart..nm
!!!
try the NYC brand or the Rimmel brand -
I use those and they are usually .99 or 1.99 depending on which kind you want. I swear by them because I love to have many different colors and do not want to spend a lot of money.

I have people ask me all the time where I get a particular color, so they obviously don't look "cheap".

I think you can find either of them at Kmart or Walmart.

Good luck!
Believe it or not, but I take Walmart brand Onion and Garlic and mix it with a jar of Walmart brand
Mixing the two sauces togeter gives it the right amount of garlic and veggies. Our family is Italian on both sides, but we all agree for a quick jar sauce instead of homemade, this does the trick! YUM
To burned out MT
If you have trouble asking for what you want, why not just send a resume and wait for them to contact you?  It doesn't take much effort to do that, and they'll let you know whether or not to go in for an interview.  If not that job, what about going back to nurses' aide?  Good luck in whatever you decide.
Anyone burned out with MTing? sm
i've been MTing for about 14 years.  i love being at home for the fact i have a 10 y/o and a 6 y/o.  but sometimes i find myself being bored sitting here typing.  i think of doing other things, medically related.  i think it would be so cool to be a surgery tech.  the thing is here where i live, i can make about the same as they do working at home.  it's just getting boring.  anyone else feel that way or have made a change?  i often think about when my boys get a little bigger, i'll go outside the house and work and possibly go back to college even.  i would like to do some kind of work where i can make a difference in people's lives. 
You are playing with fire and someone is going to get burned. sm
Infedility by any means is not moral and it is not right. Your husband has every right to be upset, as would I if my husband were doing the same. I'm not condemning you, I'm saying what I would tell anyone. In fact, my best friend brought a guy to the movies with us the other night and she is MARRIED. Needless to say, I was very upset and called her after the movie and told her I didn't think that was very cool.

I bet you 99% of the responders to this post will agree that what you are doing is not right.

It's just exciting and fun right now and not at all worth it in the end. If your husband finds out he may never respect or trust you ever again.

Also, what helps me if I ever, ever get an inkling to stray (which has happened once in our 10-year marriage), is to think about ALL my husband has been through with me and put up and has done for me (which is A LOT), and eventually the "other guy" just doesn't seem that appealing anymore. It actually made me cry when I began thinking of all my husband has done for me and my child (I was married once before we met).

Anyways, you have to stop it. Leading a double life weighs very heavy on your conscience. It's no fun. Not good for your health.

Oh, one more thing! Why is he single, if he is? He's probably a jerk. He ditched you once, right? If he's willing to hang on to you even though he knows you are married? He's not worth it, girl.
I had multiple ones burned off 10 years ago....

I had a dermatologist burn off about 30 in the neck-clavicular area about 10 years ago.  Those have not returned but new ones have in same area. 


My advice is to NOT CUT THEM OFF YOURSELF!!  My child has a big one, sent to my plastic surgery friend to take it off.

It sounds like you probably would like to see the Harry Potter books burned too
People like you are why I have a problem with religous nut cases. The last time I knew God = love. God loves all his children no matter what. You are just filled with judgement and self-righteousness. I believe that if someone is being physically abused of course remove them. If they are living the ways their religion believes and it is not hurting anyone leave them alone. So what if they wear funny clothes and their hair looks funny to outsiders. What gives one religion the right to dictate how another lives. Yes I know polygamy is illegal, children marrying and having sex with adults is disgusting in my opinion, but we should try and understand each other. I heard a quote one time that said "Don't tell me how I should or should not live and I won't tell you how you should or should not live". We are not The Creator and we should not be judging people. Let the courts handle it when they've got something legitimate and solid to work with.
burned the crap out of my belly with mashed potatos

I was just stiring instant potatos and then somehow it jumped on my belly and now I have this 2-3 inch mass of skin that has blisters, some of which have popped, and this one 2 inch round lesion that just looks gross.  I probably should have gone to the hospital, but since I have no money I just treated it over the counter with antibiotic ointment.  Has anyone done this before?  If so what did you use?  It is painful!!!!  I bought this lidocaine stuff, but it hurts worse.  At least it is healing!!!  I am a dum dum!!!  Those potatos were out to get me darnit!!!


Ham is in the oven
Looking for some new ideas for side dishes, rather than the usual potato salad and baked beans.  Anybody got a favorite to share? Thanks!
the stove
It is electric, but the burners have a smooth top. Man it is easy to clean and has a light indicating when the burner is still warm so you can be careful.
doing without a stove

I've been w/o a stove for a while because one of my cats kept peeing on it - I 'm a sucker and I chose to keep the cat and get rid of the stove.  I don't bake or cook much (I live alone..... go figure, huh?) so I haven't missed it.  I have a little convection oven if I need something along those lines, but the microwave, and crockpot do just fine for me. 


See if you can find out who does the installations and repairs for places like Sears, etc.  A lot of times they will have guys who do repairs on the side and many times they have used items that they will sell pretty inexpensively.  My mom retired from Sears and one of her best contacts was one of the repairmen who was retired - he fixed several washers for us and I bought a used one from him that lasted for quite a number of years.


I'd definitely be getting rid of the stove that had the dead mice in it, though.  I don't think I could ever eat something else that came from it again.


Aw, DH put a pot roast in the oven

when I wasn't paying attention.  He even put in parsnips - my favorite part. 


Good hubby.


After oven drying...
You can also grind them up into a powder to add to soups and things that you would normally add tomato paste to. It works out great!
fireplace/gas stove
I have a gas stove that heats 95% of my house.  It is small 1000 sq feet house.  I have a fan on it, thermostat on the wall and it works just like a furnace.  I live on the water, floating home, and so am sometimes colder than land homes but this works for me.  I do have electric baseboard in my bedrooms but keep those at 55 and only higher if we have a week of under 32 weather and might freeze.  My gas bill never runs over 100 in the winter and I do not like to be cold and keep it at 65 during the day.   Been doing this for over 10 years now.  Used to have wood stove but it was too dirty and too far to bring wood down so went to this.  Love it. 
Does she do this in the vicinity of the stove?

Or does she avoid it?


Either way, it couldn't hurt to check for gas leaks.


What exactly is he doing in the wilderness and does he have a stove?
I backpack a lot, and know how to feed myself in the wilderness. What is DH doing? Is he hunting or camping? Based at a cabin, or staying "on the ground" in a tent? Does he have a portable stove for heat? Is weight of the food an issue as it is in backpacking? Is attracting critters an issue? Food smells can be problematic depending on what activity he's doing.

I don't know the details of this outing, so I may be way off base here. I ask forgiveness in advance, if necessary. But, if your DH is experienced in this sort of thing, he really should know how to do this for himself. If he doesn't have experience, I hope he's not going out there alone.
Always better on the wood stove...
My grandfather had a room in the back of the house that was heated by wood stove (they got central heat when I was a kid, but he closed off the vents and heated that room with a wood stove because he liked it better). Sometimes my grandmother would cook in there just because it tasted better.

clean your stove
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UH3tbQOJXd0&feature=related
boy! would I love to have that stove!
If it has been painted all black now and you just want to highlight the raised portion, perhaps just sand papering the raised portion would make it stand out some, or if you can find a stove paint in "silver" color, and just brush it lightly over the raised part, it would make it look nice. Just a thought. good luck! On a side note, upon viewing your post, at the bottom of the page was a link to another site for Soapstone Wood Stoves, called WoodHeatStoves. com. They pictured a teal colored stove with silver accents. Looked really nice, imo.
I had a mouse get in my double oven many
years ago and get electrocuted on the wiring. Needless to say the kitchen smelled like something dead for DAYS. I tore the room apart and never found it. When we took the front electrical panel off 3 months later to replace a report, there it was! Looked like it was crucifed. All bones and they all fell out all over the stove. Yuk.
Dutch Oven Cooking
Hi - Glad to see you here again. I still missed your piggy "baby" - likes to hide, I guess. Cold here too. It is really easy to cook in the fireplace or on an iron stand in your back yard or a hole in the ground. I will email you some recipes and look at all the fun you will have! Nothing tastes as good as dutch oven food! Get ready for a new dress size! Your husband will be your slave if you feed him this food, I swear. Have to know, how much is wood a cord out there where you are? It is 492.00 here, and that is horrendous. We used to cut our own and it was basically free with sweat labor.
How to keep baked potatoes hot out of the oven?
Our church is having a potluck Februrary 21 where the men prepare the main dishes . DH had decided to bring baked potatoes with all the toppings . He will probably bake about 40 potatoes . How can they be kept hot ? I thought of lining a roasting pan with towels & covering it with its lid . Any suggestions?
I have both - gas cooktop & electric oven sm
My oven is a wall oven, and I am so spoiled by it that it could be a make or break factor in whatever house we buy after this one. I love the fact that the stovetop is gas with the ability to cool down a pan immediately when cooking without having to move it. I had never had a gas stovetop before this and it did take a little getting used to, but I love it now and would never go back to electric without a fight.
No natural gas stove -- for heating only
It is a natural gas free standing stove with logs, etc.  Not a cooking stove.   Thanks for your concern.
My last MIL cooked everything on wood stove
and things were delicious. She never had electric nor gas and probably would have never wanted one. How she did it, I will never know. She cooked everything from collard greens to breads such as biscuits and cornbread. Yum, yum.
I use chuck. I also cook it on top of stove
very slow with golden mushroom soap, a can of beer, potatos, carrots, and onions. Get it boiling and let it simmer for 3 hours or so.

Lately I've been forgetting to turn OFF the oven!

Sunday we had dinner at 5ish, when it was time for bed at 10 and I shut all the lights off, I noticed some extra lighting on the stove...it was telling me the temperature I had set it to and that it was still on!...and it's a gas oven too!  I think I've done this about 5 times this year now.  Wicked, wicked not so s


Oven dried tomato recipes

Dried cherry tomatoes  http://www.cookthink.com/recipe/14018/Oven-Dried_Cherry_Tomatoes


Dried roma tomatoes http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs/684/Oven-Dried-Tomatoes106460.shtml


 


you can wrap them in alu foil and put them into the oven (preheated).....
But then they do not come out crispy, rather soggy, but good, nevertheless.

How do you get stuff off glass stove tops? SM

I have tried the white creamy stuff from Sears, where I purchased stove. That doesn't get everything off.  One site suggested a straight razor, but since I type for a living, I am reluctant to use one (except when shaving legs!). 


Any tips? Please? Thank you.

Mice carry vermin, get rid of the stove sm
I don't know where you live, but call Goodwill or some derivative of that type, Craig's list as mentioned or a free newspaper which advertises cheap and don't risk getting sick. Make sure you disinfect all that area and plug it all up and reseal probably with a piece of plywood or something before you replace the stove. Perhaps you can arrange for your town to pick the old stove up. I wouldn't use it. Sorry for your troubles at Christmas, it must be hard. Perhaps you can get some frozen meals to microwave or canned food from the local church food bank. I was told by a friend who works at a food bank that the government provides them with a check for a certain amount and they have to spend that whole amount on food, not a penny less, and they sometimes have too much food. Also, see if there is a church near you who provides meals. Some around here provide lunch and dinner and don't ask questions. Research, research, don't be proud, everyone is hurting. Good luck to you! Hope you do okay, everyone gets mice, no one is immune, just disinfect, make sure they don't get back in and replace the stove.
Question. Which oven rack do you normally use when baking meats or what have you. Never sure if
bottom rack is best or middle rack which seems rather far away from the heat.
Can someone tell me what temperature you bake cod fillets at in the oven and for how long. It is
about 1-1/2 pounds.  I have a hard time with fish knowing when it is done.  Do you put it on a baking sheet.  I want just plain old fish just butter and lemon on it.
Anyone have recipe for chicken teriyaki on a stick in the oven? sm
I have the boneless chicken, the skewers, the teriyaki sauce, how can I do this in the oven without ruining everything or starting a fire? Kinda stuck in the snow here and making the best of preparing a menu. Also, if anyone still has the hashbrown casserole, I have all the ingredients (I think) but lost the recipe amts., etc.
I also cooked mine for a short time and then put them in the oven and

from time to time would baste with sauce.  I had the oven low and cooked them slowly and they were wonderful.  My family just loved them when I invited them over for dinner.  You made me hungry for them.  It has been a long time since I made them.  Mine were not fancy, just good!!!   Good luck!

Food safety question - left chicken in oven overnight (sm)
I baked two pans of chicken last night and one of them I forgot and left in the oven all night.  It has not been touched or opened since being cooked.  If I reheat it today do you think it is ok to eat or would you be afraid of food poisoning???
