New stove

Our new GE Profile convection oven right next to our new Krups toaster. Both of which are excellent.
Part of K’s parents wedding gift to us is this new happening GE Profile stove. It is a convection oven which is what K, the chef in this house, wanted. It also has an extra powerful burner for boiling water quickly which is about all I am qualified to do. Even though we are vegetarians we still use the oven a bit and we missed having one. The previous stove contained “The Oven That Cannot be Cleaned” and so we didn’t use it. I tried to clean it and ended up taking off some of the coating on our IKEA cabinets and drawers with the deadliest of products:”Easy-Off”. Yup, that cabinetry came off easily alright. At any rate, we are quite happy with our new stove.
To the right of the stove in the picture above is another wedding present, the Krups toaster (model #s forthcoming). The toaster accommodates bagels with a bagel button that only toasts the open side of the bagel. The levers on it feel quite sturdy. It also features a warming plate.
This last bit of gear nearly completes the kitchen. We want to add a shelf underneath the stove hood and glass block window. We also want to replace the original kitchen window with one we can open. But, beyond that the kitchen, nearly one year later, is finally complete.
