Microwave oven carked it on the weekend, so we got a new microwave. But it was smaller than previous one (fiiiiiine) and didn't fit the microwave rice cooker (which I hated anyway) so after my very late mental health appointment today, we went shopping and bought a separate rice cooker. Smarter than I was going to buy, but it seduced me with promised auto settings for brown rice, crispy rice, sushi rice, steam, porridge, as well as white rice. Still not all that expensive, no Powerball win as yet! Looking forward to seeing how I go with that. Also had to buy a new toaster, after an unfortunate accident on the weekend involving lack of bench space, and someone setting the toaster on the stove, then turning on a burner underneath the toaster rather than the burner for the grill, when they wanted grilled cheese on toast. The burnt plastic smell was spectacular. That would be one word for it, anyway. I'll leave you to imagine others. I'm off cheese on toast for a while, oddly enough.
