Talking An independant woman needs to know this

I'm very independant and like doing things on my own in my house or anywhere for that matter. If something breaks down, I want to fix it myself and I want to know how.

Today I blew a fuse in my kitchen stove. For once I needed to call dh and ask him where they were. I won't ever forget now, but do you know where the fuses are in your stove?

I don't know,lol.
I'm blissfully ingnorant for now. I'll ask Dh later & I'm sure he'll wonder why I'm asking. The wide range of topics we discuss in the Village are creeping more and more into my family life.

I'll tell you where mine is and you can check yours. Yes, I do believe all stoves have fuses.

I blew the one that is for the plug-in. But when dh showed me where the fuses were, there we about 6 there I believe.

Ours opens up at the very top, you know where the clock part is - there. You can just open the lids and viola - there is your fuses.

Now you might not have them there, they could be in the drawer at the bottom also dh told me.

Is this for a gas stove too? None of the parts of my stove are accessible. Sealed burners etc... The bottom drawer is the broiler.
