Oh the freaking excitement.
Well last night we bought a new stove/oven and microwave/range. Are we remodeling you ask? no. Did we have a lot of extra money sitting around and wanted to spend it? no. The reason would be a small kitchen fire. My sweet sweet husband was cooking for me while I was sleeping, and turned on the wrong burner. The burner he turned on happened to have the noodles he was getting ready to cook as well as the tupperware he was going to be putting it in. It caught on fire. He put it out very quickly and the only damage was to our stove. (now unusable since the knobs melted off and the buttons were charred so much you couldn't read them) and the microwave/range above the stove.
After the insurance adjuster came we went to R.C. Willey's clearance center and got an awesome deal on a scratch and dent oven. We looked and looked and couldn't find a scratch or a dent on it anywhere. We also bought a new microwave. They are both black which doesn't totally match our kitchen, but hey the price was right and it's not like my house is all matchey matchey anyways.
O'Ryan will be picking up our new stove tomorrow. The top is one of the ceramic flat tops. The reason we picked the one we did is it has like 5 burners on top. one is a warming zone and keeps things just below a simmer. The front two have two different sizes depending on which way you turn the knob. One is small and the other is large. Also the oven has a convection option. I have never used that before, but the sales guy said it makes things cook more evenly because it circulates the heat so you don't have any hot and cold spots in the oven.
That is it on the excitement for now. Hopefully we don't have anymore for a while.
