Hi Shawn,

 RH> So for her, having two ovens was a good option. My mom never was a
 RH> fancy cook so her oven was used for "ordinary" baking........I think

 SH> Yes, she lived in the kitchen.

Don't see that these days, except maybe baking days for the Amish and
other groups like that.


 RH> Sigh! I can understand their point tho. But, what if your stove dies
 RH> before you do; will they replace it with a smooth top then?

 SH> The last time it died, they replaced it with something they had laying
 SH> in the storage room.  I suspect it would be the same again, same with
 SH> the fridge just whatever old junk they have in storage.

Sounds like military housing. We had mixed "luck" with our appliances.
The fridge went out once while we were in AZ (but gone for the week end)
so it was replaced by a side by side. Other appliances, other duty
stations were usually from "stock on hand". We had a gas stove in Fort
Devens (MA), when we packed out, the packers accidentally grabbed the
instruction manual for it. Moved to Fort Huachuca (AZ) and when we got
housing, the stove was identical to the one in MA.

 SH> Andrea marked the one she uses.  I don't wnat mine messed with. LOL
 RH> Helps tell them apart. (G) Still, I would like to have at least
 basic RH> markings on the cup so I know how accurate my measures are.

 SH> I have some left so it's not tooooo hard to figure it out.  But if I'm
 SH> way off then I figure it's my own fault! ;)

As long as you have a few markings, you should be able to guess-timate
fairly accurately. I have a back up one cup liquid cup that gets pulled
out every once in a while when I need 2 liquid measures for the same
recipe but can't do the rinse and reuse thing.
