My stove/oven is broke

You all need to lose the easy bake ovens, and get one with better insulation. LOL!

Are you going to Buy us all a New Oven?? I didnt think so..

I dont do ovens in the summer.. Now I look for any excuse to cook with my oven in the winter..

I'm thinking maybe it isn't the oven but the size of the kitchen. My oven is new, just a year old but my kitchen is anything but new and quite small. I dunno.

But I have a fairly big kitchen, compared to a lot I've seen, and it still gets too hot to suit me. Go figure.....

Go figure.....

Yep, that answer suits me.

You're right about the oven radiating heat. On hot days with the a/c running almost non stop it defeats the purpose when you run the oven. During the heat wave I made mostly cold meals, salads and sliced meats etc. But if we hit a cool day then I would cook a meal early in the morning and by the time the temperature warmed up my oven was cool. We would just warm up our meal in the micro.
I think our heat wave is over for the summer. Got up to 4 degrees the last 2 days and we don't get anything much higher than the low twenties now. The rain we didn't get all summer is making up for lost time...we've had thunderstorms and heavy rains almost every second day for the past two weeks.

You got UP to 4 degrees? In August? Where do you live?

That was 4 degrees Celcius, probably around 39 F. That was at 6:00am when I got up. The tempemprature rose to about 22 by 2:30 , about 70F I guess.
I'm sure we'll be getting some warmer days before the end of summer, or at least I hope we do but we won't be seeing 36-39 anymore. The highest we can expect is in the 20's. It's already getting darker as the month wears down, we don't get up to sunlight anymore, we need to turn on the lights now. Sun isn't up before 7 or so. And it goes down a lot earlier also - gone are the days when it was still light at 10:00 pm. Oh, I'm in the north of Canada.
