    Default Gripey's installing my new oven

    Woo HOOOOOOO!!!!!

    I haven't a working oven in about 3 years (long story, my choice due to paying and paying over $100 per year for repairs on the one we had over 10 years). We bought a new one along with the other appliances that we got for the kitchen re-do in about May. I mentioned the other day that I'd surely love it if I could have the oven for Thanksgiving..... and he said he'd see.... . I'm craving cookies.....

    I'm so happy for you! So, are you going to bake cookies first or something else? Just in time for the holidays too!

    I may make some zucchini bread....I have the last zucchini from the garden still on the counter. I've been secretly hoping for the oven even before I mentioned it

    New was the better value and honestly I was just being stubborn in not having it fixed again. I was just soooo aggravated at our local furniture store where we bought it and their repairman......I was revolting.....

    How exciting! Do you cook with gas or electric? I went with gas for my free standing range and oven and then electric for my wall oven. Didn't plan on having two ovens, but I found this wall oven at Sears on sale for $259, fully loaded, so I couldn't pass it up. I do alot of cooking and baking so the second oven is a blessing.

    We use gas. I'm now the proud 'mommy' of a stainless steel, Maytag double oven.

    Oh, you will love the stainless. LOL, I found the stainless wall oven on sale this past spring when we first started building the new house so we had buy all of the appliances in stainless. We got a package deal at Sears, so it all worked out.

    Happy baking
