I used to take a great deal of JOY in cooking. Being single and alone and home for three weeks at a time makes it impractical and expensive to cook for one's self. . I am contemplating selling the stove outright and reling on these gadgets for cooking. No more elaborate Thai dishes, but at least I can still make popcorn and lobster, right? Anywayhis is kind of pointless. Just curious, you know?, I'll never get around to selling it so t

My red curry is to die for. And I'm not even going to tell you about my LORB.

Although I think Danjite is probably biting his tongue right now.

Yay for making popcorn on the stove. I eat ridiculous amounts of popcorn. It's my comfort food. The Brits are puzzled by it, though they'll definitely all dig in if I make it first. My flatmates get home and are like, It smells SO GOOD IN HERE. And I'm like, HAHA SUCKERS I ATE IT ALL you should get home early instead of going to the pub.

Uh, anyway, I don't know if I can be much help. It sounds to me like a hot plate or a microwave would be best for your purposes.

I wake all of my shipmates up when I make popcorn. There are two scents, FOOD scents that rouse people from slumber:Popcorn and Bacon.

The ONLY reason I use a microwave is tohink the micr make popcorn. I've thrown away THREE analog Televisions in the past week. Throwing crap away feels really good. I think the microwave is next. "jiffy-pop" might be more expensive, but it tastes much better the crap from the bag.

I have tried to edit that several times, but the "edit" page looks exactly the way I bashed itout in the first place. I think the problem may lie with LJ and not my keyboard.

FOR THE RECORD.

I believe, at this point in my life I could survive with a (gas powered) hotplate, crock-pot and toaster oven.

Though the sous vide' looks intriguing.

Mostly I rely on meatball grinders and whiskey for sustanance, though I DO have a potroast in the crock-pot right now.

I also dream of owning a sandwich station instead of this joke of a refrigerator, if any of you have a line one one, hit me up.

I hate the sous vide'. I hate what it can do to meat, and the disaster in the finale of Top Chef this season just confirmed all of my loathing.

Me? I'd give up all the gadgets and become one with my gas stovetop and oven. There is absolutely nothing involving some sort of heat that I cannot do and do well with gas.

And my beloved All-Clad.
