Weekend at Burnies

My new stove (thank you Sears card) arrives on Saturday.

I had to replace the old one after the door fell off, which I’m fairly certain is because the guys painting the kitchen used it to pull the oven away from the wall.

Contractor FAIL!

Also, you have to set it 45 degrees higher than the recommended temperature, unless you want to wait 6 hours and have Mexican pizza for breakfast.

And I kinda melted a knob on one of the two working burners by leaving something pressed up against it that had just been in the oven for 6 hours.

Mexican pizza was probably involved.

Anyway, if I heard MadamBob correctly, the new oven has a “super burner” on it. Apparently it’s this giant burner that allows you to cook/boil things in extra-large pots very quickly. I’d never heard of them before, and considering the most I cook on the stovetop is glaze for rum cake I’m not sure it’s going to get much use.

It’s a good thing it has a second job fighting crime.

Faster than a microwave! More powerful than an Easy Bake Oven! Able to flash-fry a buffalo in 40 seconds!

It’s a coil! It’s a flame! It’s SUPER BURNER!

Uh oh…

I just checked with MadamBob. She said POWER burner.

Instead of a cape the jumbo burner will be sporting a power tie.

Well damn. Where’s the fun in that?

And I was all ready to introduce it to the Wonder Waffle Iron.

Now what am I going to do with the rest of my Saturday?!
