I got a convection oven! It's an Oster 10 in 1 and it does everything. Lefty Crafter got one awhile ago and loves hers so since my wall oven was having a hard time pre-heating I decided to go for it. I found a place for it on top of my antique gas oven. I used it this morning to air fry some hash brown patties and it worked slick. It cooks much faster than the regular oven and I'll have to decrease the cook times on things. But I love it!
I was praying it would be fine and I wouldn't have to return it as I had enough trouble getting it in the house, unboxed, and lifted onto it's resting place....me with the fractured spine! LOL! But I managed thanks to the good Lord up above and the saying "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me".....at my age, I say that many times during the day.
I've been mostly cleaning in the kitchen this past week and several garbage bags got filled so progress is being made. While cleaning I've been listening to "old" music from the 30's and 40's mostly on You Tube.....
I finished another Halloween ornament except for the beads which I hope to put on this afternoon....you can see where the beads and sequins will go by the black holes....
right now I'm reading The Tannenbaum Christmas Quilt #3 in the Door County series..........these are easy enjoyable reads with great characters and kind people..............
I also started another series that is supposed to be similar to the Mitford books by Jan Karon which are one of my favorite series.......so far this one is good.......
That's all the news that's fit to print here. I'm just continuing to clear out and keep my car packed to drop off at the thrift store and the garbage filled with...wait for it.........garbage.
Oh, it's FOOTBALL SEASON too!!! I listened to the Iowa Hawkeyes "skunk" Illinois State 40-0.....that had to hurt (Illinois that is). Plus, those types of games are boring. Next week the NFL starts too. Another sign of Fall!

Oh to find a red leaf here. We're still in the 110°s. So depressing after 4 months of it. Rain would be nice too. Your ornament is so cute. Beads will really make it pop! So glad your oven works well. I made a boule of sourdough in mine this week again. When I bake bread I do need to put the rack on the bottom rung or the bread hits the top of the oven Oops! Congrats on your kitchen clean out. It is my favorite room to declutter. Makes it more functional when Indo.
Some leaves changing here and it is cool today. Happy Fall Sam!
We keeping hearing that we are going to get a break in this hot, humid weather but it hasn't happened yet! I got a 10 in one oven, I think mine is a Ninja but I'm not sure. Anyway, I love it too. I had so much trouble with my stinking oven and I just love the counter top appliance. It does so much more than I need it to and it is the perfect size when cooking for two. I hope you are okay after unpacking and getting it on the counter. I wish I was there to help! You take care of yourself, friend.
A nice shiny new kitchen appliance - I hope you continue to enjoy it. We had some very welcome heavy rain last night and there has been an autumnal feel to the air first thing for the last week. I do love autumn but I am happy to wait for a few weeks more before the leaves start to turn. xx
I have a new convection oven and I need to learn how to use it. I guess I need to read more about how to cook with it! Hope you'll keep us updated on what you cook! Hugs!
You have been busy! Our oven has a convection function but I haven't tried using yet. I think my hubby has though. Your ornament is look great. The beads and sequins will really make it fancy. Happy Fall!
.good that your new oven is working well...fortunately here football season is nearly ended,,,but summer looms and that is not a pleasant time of the year here. Air con goes on and stays on for months.
