    Exploding potato

    I just had a potato explode in my oven. Usually I stab the potatoes a few times per the lore of exploding potatoes. I was in a hurry tonight and must have forgotten. I wasn't always completely convinced about this but now I am!

    And now I have to really clean out the oven so that my cookies don't have that smoked potato aroma.

    Just buy a new oven Nellie! This is your chance!

      Re: Exploding potato

      The problem is that it is a double oven which makes it more expensive and I don't want a double oven (same layout) when we remodel. I guess I could sell it on Craigslist. Which reminds me that i need to start scanning Craigslist again for a used oven!

      I hate these ovens.

        I always wondered if that would actually happen. Thanks for testing it out..... :>

              I have always thought it was a myth, too. But, I still always stab the potatoes. Thanks for being the guinea pig on that one!

                  If anything gets replaced soon, it will be the KitchenAid "WhisperQuiet" dishwasher. I'm using Lily's sarcasti-quotes on that one. They should do a co-branding with Verizon for the KitchenAid "Can You Hear Me Now?" dishwasher because I can hear it in ever room of the house when it is running.

                    Is that an Aga, Annie? I've been wanting one like that - but DH and I were heading towards Aga. Now I see the retro/French look coming out in other lines. (WS has one in the catalogue now for $8000. )

                      Nellie, look into a Miele dishwasher. The compartments are really awesome - they make a whole lot more sense than many of the dishwashers I've seen.
