This beast of a stove was in our house when we moved in 13 years ago - although it's pretty obvious it was nowhere near new even then. It's always been a little, uh, temperamental - but I felt like we had an understanding of sorts... Then, over the holidays, I decided it was trying to kill us. I could smell gas at random times and the oven kept mysteriously turning itself on. Not such a comforting realization... Finally, last weekend, the oven just outright died, refused to light. I decided the Universe was trying to tell us something and we went stove shopping toot sweet. After a week of stove top only cooking - the new one arrives tomorrow. I will miss the old battle ax! Well, not the part where it was trying to kill me I mean... :-}
I can always count on you for some of the funniest captions on this site! I love that you've given us a "before" and "after"! Do you *enjoy* cooking/trying new recipes, or are you in need of a work-horse to feed the hungry boys in the family?!
Love your story! I had to peek at the new stove before commenting on the old one! Our house had a new stove when we moved in, but I HATED it--and since I'm often a reluctant cook, we decided a new one was in order when we remodeled the kitchen.
