I decided a few months ago to go all-electric in my home. I had the
500 gallon propane monstrosity taken off my property and converted to
electric heat for our short winters. The difference in monthly cost
was huge. I went from $1500 per/year for propane to an average of $30
a month additional for electric, over-all.

I have yet to find the right electric stove/oven for me. I'm also
using counter-top appliances mostly, and the microwave when possible.
I've learned to cook in a large toaster-oven and can turn out dishes I
never thought of using it for in the past.

It will be nice to have a full-sized oven again when I find the one I
want.

I almost always have leftovers as the meals are just too much for me
to eat at one time. If some of the meal reheats better than some of
it, I will make sure to eat the part that doesn't reheat as well while
at the restaurant. At the Chinese restaurant, I will order another
side of fried rice to take home as I really like theirs.

Didn't make any Easter eggs, but I don't see why they can't be eaten.
And deviled eggs, plain hard boiled eggs, egg salad - they're good any
day!

We have owls in the Seatac area. I think it depends on whether you
have any green areas near your house. Our house is surrounded on 3
sides by trees. We can often hear an owl hooting at night, sometimes
more than one. A few years ago, shortly after midnight on Christmas, I
was passing through the living room and saw a large owl land on the
deck. My mom and I watched it for about 20 minutes before it flew
away. Usually, we only see the hawks, and other smaller birds. But we
do hear the owls on a regular basis.

You can draw on the egg with a melted wax pen and when it's done, take
that brown egg
and put it in vinegar or an acid bath for awhile. The brown will be
removed.
The longer you leave it in the vinegar, the lighter it will get.
Then melt the wax to remove it in the microwave or over a candle and
wipe off the melted wax.
Then you'll have a white egg with a brown design.

I really like my toaster oven, which is a bit larger than the normal
little ones. I rarely use the large oven anymore. I got it at a yard
sale for a whole $15.

I don't eat enough hard boiled eggs to make it worthwhile, so what I
did when my kids were little was dye unboiled eggs. We did it for a
couple of weeks before Easter. It was always nice to open the door
and pick up a pretty egg to use.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.

You're also very entertaining :-) ... but back to eggs... just kids wax
crayons, melted? Do you have any tool/mould to hold the egg you're
decorating? I have to have a go at this. I have a thing about fancy eggs.

When my kids were very small I acquired a set of little pale-wood
decorated eggs on a loop of string (from Poland, the patterns are like
yours but simpler) ..every year they loved to cut a branch, stick it in a
vase and hang the eggs from it for Easter. My other egg collection
(started eeven earlier) is out all year round in a big wide bowl, each
made from a different kind of stone or glass.

Some do serve tinned/reconstituted crap, but they don't call it "home
made soup" because A) too many Scottish customers would know the
difference,and B)getting caught out matters because the deception would
be illegal here.
