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.
