Replacing the range -
Do we sense a theme here?40 degrees and raining this morning. Snow is all gone.
Procrastination FTW!

Do we sense a theme here?Snow and ice all over around here.
Put the car in the garage and otherwise I’m ignoring it.

Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?I looked at the ingredients list on the bag and as UPF foods go it’s not the worst but the stuffing I used to make is much cleaner. I start by making cornbread and proceed from there.

Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?The very same!

SongwritingYa’ll like music, maybe you’d like a documentary on songwriting. Emphasis is country but I daresay the principles are the same.

Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?Sharon used an Aldi stuffing mix, fortified with mirepoix and herbs.
It was great!

Replacing the rangeThis vid isn’t very good but might be useful:
Link to videoMy takeaway is that I’ll no longer consider my beloved Whirlpools (hecho in Clyde, OH), and it’s time to look at GE and Frigidaire. I’ve seen the same info elsewhere.

Replacing the rangeFor about $100 you can buy a countertop induction burner that plugs in to the wall. No doubt less on FB marketplace. Maybe try one and see if you like it.
Is your kitchen already wired for an electric range? The circuit for your propane range won’t be large enough so if it’s not you’ll need a new circuit and an electrician to install it. You may also need a larger electric service.
Upside of electrics, especially coil top electrics, is they’re dirt cheap used. The most I could get for the one I pulled out of Kim’s house was $100 and it looked like new.

Avoid Samsung appliances like a bad habit.

Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?Bird update:
The countertop oven works fine once I figured the oven thermostat is off by 75 degrees. Everything is browning nicely.
I know how you worry….

Happy Thanksgiving - What's your story?Cold and snowing lightly here. Kids are in from Boston, staying until Sunday.
Turkey breast instead of whole turkey this year -a first for us. Much simpler - we shall see. Cooking in the countertop oven I got for the basement and it’s making me nervous - it’s being very slow to return to temp after I put the turkey in. This could take a while.
Sharon is making the usual sides then later we’ll go to Kim’s in-laws for desserts.
Happy Thanksgiving!

There’s some good advice in hereI didn’t think about the ads - I pay for YouTube premium and don’t see them.
Sorry about that.

‘Shit for fucking poor people’That’s my problem with Campbells too - far too much salt.

Another house for saleVery famous house. Nice to see that no one has messed with it.

What do you think of this house?Very nice!
20 ft. tall? Yikes! The tallest one I’ve ever seen might have been 6’ tall.

Bourbon competition winnerJust ordered a few bottles for Christmas presents. Might be hard to find soon.
Thanks!

What do you think of this house?I’ve been told that ivy will eventually kill a tree. Might take a while and it’s kind of picturesque. Maybe I’ll keep it.
That may well be an azalea or a rhododendron. That would be disappointing but not heartbreaking. I like those too and they won’t grow in my very sunny yard.
