Yesterday i thought the cooker was being installed - wrong.
Today the cooker was being installed - right and wrong!!
It was delivered but the engineers said it couldnt be fitted as it needed a new cooker amp on the wall (im just not technical so excuse me if im saying the wrong thing here - by this point i was a bubbling wreck)!
Apparently they couldnt come out again to fit it until i pay for an electrician to fit the right socket, no electricians available this side of Christmas so they left saying they would be back NEXT THURSDAY so i had until then to sort it out!!
Lots of frantic phonecalls and one knight in shining armour later (omg i even called him that to his face and almost kissed him as he walked through the door!) i was informed that they could have fit it this morning if only they had read the manual properly and read that all it really needed was a plug fitting! Grrr!!Gas man is coming tomorrow to install it and its just focusing on using the end product thats keeping me going right now - well that and a hubby who wouldnt stop at anything today to help his hormonally distraught wife! *huge kisses*
So......here we are.....looking at a spanking brand new cooker......reading Ree Drummonds cookbook
(this deserves a post of its own so i will be elaborating on this once ive absorbed it all!).....and eating take away pizza!! Yep...one extreme to the other! lol
ARGHHH, why does that always happen? Can't wait to see what you are going to make. Your makes always look so scrummy. I am also REALLY pleased to hear that you also eat takeaway though, lol

I had to wait from Christmas day to the middle of Feb before our cooker was delivered and installed..am allergic to microwave now!
ReplyDeleteglad its sorted x
Oh Debbie you poor thing, I hate it when things dont go to plan - it's soooo frustrating but that beautiful cooker will be up and working in no time, I'm looking forward to seeing some of your mouth watering creations.
ReplyDeleteTake Care Hun - Ju xxx
Glad you are on your way to being sorted xx
ReplyDeleteDebbie - I've got to ask how you dipped the marzipan fruits into the chocolate? Did you hold them with your fingers? Sorry it's such a dippy question. XX
ReplyDeleteSharon i dropped them into the chocolate, rolled them around with 2 forks and lifted them out with said forks letting them drip a little. Place them on the baking paper and it will still flood around the base a small amount :)
ReplyDeleteWell I would never have thought of that! Thanks for letting me know - I'm going to have a go at doing some next week. Yummy - I'm doing the cranberry and white choc cookies tonight!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your oven. Not heard of Ree Drummond but been for a quick google she sounds fab please please let us know what her book is like - our library doesnt have it in. :(
ReplyDeleteI have got to ask, as I am dying to find out. Did all go to plan with the oven.
