RETIRED: Target chit chat

i've never seen a stove under a window. usually it's the sink.

BUNNIES... Bunnies... Puppies would like you to order this [barkingdeals.com] for him. He says he really needs this and it's only four bucks.

Good morning to everyone!

My sink is under another identical set of windows on the adjacent wall.

Quick! Take a picture. The wind is NOT blowing in northern Iowa. The neighbor's flag is just hanging there, not even moving. Should I be skeered?

Is a storm a coming?

Love your new stove. What's it cooking today?

is it already morning?

Nope, not stormy looking. 85 and muggy so it's always possible, but the forecast only shows a 20% chance.

I don't know what it's cooking today, maybe you should figure that out for me. But I looked a little bit goofy last night. The oven window is big and the light is bright and you can actually see clearly in there.... so I stood there watching my little chicken in a biscuits bake last night. My last one had a window and a light but the view just wasn't as good.
Yes, and I have no idea why I was up at 6:30.

in the beginning when i first started targeting, i bumped into what had to be another slickdealer after the exact same deals. that's why i've been ever after.

you will be coming at a very nice time of yr. not too hot, not too cold and doesn't rain that much. hopefully fall foliage will be in full force. usually a little after columbus day b/c the city retains more heat than outside. so a very nice place to go would be central park. you can google central park fall foliage to see enhanced pictures. i've read fall is the time we get the most europeans b/c they do not have fall foliage as colorful as we do.

another place i would definitely recommend would be the empire state building at sunset. on a good day it can be very romantic actually.

let me know what you are interested in and i can give you recommendations.

i will also help you w/ transportation. the best way to get around the city quickly and efficiently is the subway, but it can be overwhelming in the beginning. and there's lots of little things that only natives would know. for instance, at subway entrances on the street, look for ones w/ green globes on posts. means that entrance is open 24/7.

this is a good primer-

taking a taxi is usually only good for short distances. too expensive to go far and may not be any faster than taking the subway. catching a taxi around 4pm is usually rather difficult b/c that is during the shift change and many are on their way home outside of manhattan so they'll only take you if it's on the way. it's almost impossible to catch a taxi when it's raining.

and be prepared to walk, walk, walk, so wear comfortable shoes and/or sneakers. new yorkers don't need to diet as much b/c they get a lot of exercise every day.



very nice. fits perfectly under the window sill as if you'd planned it. i've never seen a stove under a window. usually it's the sink.



good one!



and



welcome back! i hate having to catch up when i've been away.

i think you should post what you are looking for on fb more often



hey! you've never heard of christmas in july???

I am baking a chicken today in mine. Your chicken in a biscuit sounds better though.

Are you going to try the whole "use the convection oven and don't cover it" approach. I know it's supposed to work well, but I just have a hard time convincing myself that not covering a chicken or putting a lid on it won't leave it dried out.

The chicken in a biscuit is good. I know it's a silly thing, but I was sooo excited to be able to bake both muffin pans at the same time last night. DH has been teasing me about the stove so he last said he said, "so, how did it work? how much less time did it take". I told him half the time... he looked a little startled. Then I told him because I could bake both at once,

I need to test the delay start and timed bake features to make sure they work. I have no reason to think they won't, just figure when you get something new you should test everything just in case. Technically, I did the timed bake. When I ran it empty the first time, I set it for 45 minutes.

I have not tried convection baking yet.

This is definitely one for convection!

With all this convection talk lately, I have a Jenn-Aire convection cook book if anybody wants me to look anything up. (couldn't remember if I mentioned that before or not... thought I did but...)

I love reading all your tips about NYC. Its one of my favorite places to visit. I will say, though, depending on where you're at in the city, and where the nearest subway station is at, it can be quicker to take a taxi, and sometimes cheaper, esp if you squeeze several bodies into one cab. If nothing else, you have to do it once just so you can experience it. Two of my sisters and I went with my 4yo daughter last Dec and I think that was the most memorable moment for her. A taxi ride. That even beat out the American Girl store.

Ok. Tell me how to cook my chicken. Lower temp and time to cook?
