Re: What's that on your cooker?

I was just wondering what toaster ovens might be after reading loads of stuff on reddit about American minimal living.

They're what I'd call a mini oven.

I am currently researching them.

I need one that can accommodate a 10" pizza, as that's what my local Heron sells.

My microwave has just popped its clogs.

Now i don't have any kind of cooking implement at all. killcomputer

Are you going to be alright?

Wanna lend a £5 for secondhand Microwave oven?

If you put an iron upside down in a wastepaper basket, so the sole plate faces upwards, you can use it as a hotplate for a small saucepan, or an opened tin of beans or something.

My can opener's packed in as well. bawl

I'm sure there's a trick you can find online for opening a can without a tin opener though.

All I've got in the house that doesn't need cooking is bread, cheese, fake butter and oranges. bawl

Goodness sake, you really should have had a spare, they aren't that expensive.

My can opener is now working perfectly again. Sly

And my microwave has come back on.

I have not yet risked trying to use it. scared

Next time you're in Heron Foods* it might be rworth getting a spare 39p one, just in case.

* Other Food sales outlets are available

I don't think Heron sell them. bawl

I've now ordered a new microwave oven. It arrives tomorrow. scared

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Sun 15 Nov 2020 - 18:36

Given today's microwave expenditure, I'm now looking at getting a halogen oven, rather than a toaster oven, as you can get 4.5 star rated ones from Amazon for just £35 and I've now discovered I've got £20 in Amazon vouchers in my account, meaning one would only cost me £15. Excited
