I posted this on another group but you guys have such a great sense of
humor, thought you might like it.

My husband NEVER liked anything he even thought was cooked in a microwave.
Therefore, until his death, is sat mostly unused except for popcorn and
warming up things.  I have JUST discovered what a microwave is REALLY for.
NO, it is not cooking, it is a safe haven to put your plate, glass or
whatever when you have to go to the bathroom, answer the door or phone.
This will last until Piglet learns to open the door, and she will!

Welcome to slave hood ;-)  I used to have one that had the protruding handle
to open the door.  Rumble the cat who is to smart for his own good learned
to press the handle down when the dinger went off.  I had to buy one that
has a child proof lock on it.

Stupidest thing I ever did; taught my Topper how to open doorknobs.  
DUMB!!  I then spent a month jaming the doors behind me until Topper
decided he did not know how to open them after all.

I wonder how many people here have any of those lamps that
can be turned on by simply touching the base?  (I've found
it hard enough just to avoid the kind with a rocker switch
that sits on the floor or table!)

I have them  spirit likes to step on them to turn them on and off but I put
the energy saver bulbs in them.

Precisely why I avoid them!  (I'm a light sleeper, and my
cats are quite nocturnal - I would be constantly awakened by
lights flashing on and off.) ;-)

And you know that before long, the cats would figure out that it's
an easy way to wake you up. Why topple a lamp on your head when
they can just step on the base? :)

We just naturally put stuff in the oven or the microwave.  After forty years
of furkids, you don't leave things on the counter.

We just won't tell her that some of us do put the cat food and water on the
counter.  (Usually to keep the dogs out of it)

Always have to keep track of a few things that need to disappear when
suprise visitors that  don't already know us that well show up.

Another reason to keep bottled water around.  For those that suspect the dog
and cat and people dishes all go through the same dishwasher, and might
care.

O.T. and Willlow have their food on the dog cage, Piglets is on the dryer
and they all three eat Scooters food on the floor.  Am too old to care much
what people think.  If someone comes who grosses out with the cats, I usuall
say something like " well, I don't have to worry about the dishes, they go
through three rinse cycles and a dry cycle."  I look at the 3 cats and
scooter and they really make a funny face and noise not sure if I am kidding
or not.

You're kidding! If something goes through the dishwasher, I consider it
to be extremely clean. It gets pounded by hot water for 40 minutes! I
would eat off a plate even if, prior to being washed, a cat had used it.
I can't believe anyone would feel different, but I guess I should know
better. :)

I am as close to Howard hues as you can get, prefer my cats germs to most

My mom was a real cleanliness freak.  We had a neighbor lady
with two dogs (German setters, IIRC), who also made a really
superior plum butter from the plums on their trees.  One
time she gave us a dish full of it, and Mom wouldn't let me
eat it, because she'd seen one of the dogs eating out of
that dish.  (For years I visualized the lady picking the
dog's dish off of the floor and filling it with the fruit
spread - it wasn't until I reached my teens that I realized
the dish was taken from her cupboard, and had been washed at
least once between dog and human use!)

Persia doesn't jump on counters.  She will, however, put two front paws on
the coffee table where I eat off a tray.  I don't *dare* turn my back on
her!

Icanhascheezeburger?  Yes, she can and she did.  I don't like raw veggies
on my burgers nor any kind of condiments such as mustard or mayo.  I merely
had a toasted bun topped with a (rather odd) pan-fried burger which
contained finely minced mushrooms, water chestnuts, soy sauce and some
cornstarch as a binder. This combination falls apart easily so a grill
wasn't a good cooking venue, although a broiler pan would have worked.  I
topped with a slice of swiss cheese.  I got up to grab a napkin.  I was not
gone more than 20 seconds.  But my burger was ;)  Thankfully I'd made more
burgers than that one.  shedidhaveheezeburger  LOL  What a nutcase.

People still *cook* with their microwaves???? Wow.

As far as I knew, besides that microwave popcorn stuff, a microwave really
only has two purposes: to defrost and to re-heat. I *never* use it to *cook*
with!

Ditto! Although I recently discovered that slow-cooking vegetables
such as yams (ie, sweet potatoes - not sure what they're called in
different places) can cook very fast in a microwave, with very little
difference in the taste between that and baking them. So I've cooked
those in the microwave recently with good results. Takes about 15-20
minutes as opposed to an hour in the oven.

Mostly, though, I don't care much for the taste of food that has been
cooked in a microwave. The very first food I ever had cooked in the
microwave was bacon. It was completely flat. And while it didn't taste
terrible, it had a lot less flavor than bacon cooked in a frying pan.
And if bacon doesn't taste absolutely great, whatever is the point of
eating it?? I don't eat it for my health. :)

But I do find the microwave indespensible for reheating and defrosting.

actually use, DH does most of the cooking, if he kicks off I will have to
hire someone to show me how to use the oven, honestly we have lived in this
house almost 15 years and I still am not sure how to turn on the oven, Lee

They really do work well to cook or steam vegetables.  Especially frozen
veggies like corn and green beans and broccoli.  Plus you can cook those in
the bowl you want to serve them in or even in the package they come in.  I
usually dump them into the container any leftovers will go into the
refrigerator in to start with.

I use it all the time- I can even roast beef in mine (through next
time I get one I might try for a combi oven) we just almost never use
our cooker apart from the rings . In fact we're considering getting
some rings, a combi oven and dumping the cooker entirely, it's too big
for two people and we don't use the grill since we got our George
Foreman lean mean fat busting machine and the space could be shelved
to store things

IMHO  frozen vegetables cook well in the microwave.   My microwave is my
"best friend".    I use my George Foreman grill or my toaster oven when
I actually (rarely) want to cook  some meat.   Guess I am just a lazy
cook, but it is something I never enjoyed.    MLB
Lesley - 21 Oct 2007 15:10 GMT
> IMHO  frozen vegetables cook well in the microwave.  

Or those packs of ready prepared fresh vegetables that steam in the
bag- they're a mainstay of my cooking around here especially at the
moment- throw them in the microwave, shove a chicken breast in the GF
and within fifteen minutes the pair of us have a fairly healthy meal,
which I have not had to struggle with after a hard day at the office!

Believe me it's that or chips from next door so it's much better

> The George Foreman is a main stay in my chicken

In your chicken? Don't you mean in your kitchen? I wouldn't cook as
often as I do without mine- Someone (Granby I think?) said they didn't
like them because they preferred their meat a little juicier etc..I
never have that problem with mine- I let it heat up to max then put
the meat in to sear and turn it down and cook it slowly and it's just
fine in fact I am just going for a shower and then I am doing sirloin
steaks with baby new potatoes with a mint and herb butter and carrot
batons (The last two do in the microwave so dinner will take about 15
minutes- my kind of meal!)

I meant when I cook chicken that is how I do it always.  I put a lemon slice
or orange slice on the chicken when I am cooking.  I also always marinate my
meat using one of the space saver vacuum machines.  You can basically
overnight marinate your meat in 5 minutes.

I have quite a few GF.  I have a indoor/outdoor grill that I always use.
Always which ever one I use the meat comes out tender.  You just have to
watch it.  I did learn that if you use the small ones you have to use small
portions or it does dry out the meat by the time it is cooked all the way
thru.  I love the griddle one

these are some of the ones I have inside
http://igrillwithgeorge.com/size.html   this IMO is the best one for a
normal person to use http://igrillwithgeorge.com/GRP90WGP.html

I haven't been in years.  I used to when  I was traveling back and forth
between the stores in Kentucky and my stores In Orlando  but since I sold
the stores in Kentucky.  I haven't been back to the Kentucky derby  now it
is NASCAR races In Daytona Beach, Florida close to where I live at now.

I am not sure if they sell them on the website.  I always bought mine at the
promenade on property

What's the point?  Regular bacon microwaves just fine,
between paper towels (to absorb the extra grease)!

you don't have to put it in the refrigerator.  You can store it on the
cabinet shelf till you open it.

And how many preservatives and unnecessary additives does
that entail?  On the rare occasions I have bacon instead of
sausage (for which I buy the frozen, pre-cooked kind), I
prefer the real thing.

> In your chicken?

OK, this just gave me the giggles. George Foreman in chicken... is
that like dogs in elk? (There's a visual for you!)

Speaking of which, I just got back from Pt. Reyes, California, where
there are many elk (I saw a few). They're in rutting season and the
area was full of signs warning people to stay away from them, as the
males become quite aggressive at this time. I did see one very stately
male with quite an impressive head o'horns.

Have they had the good sense to make the grilling plates
removable and dishwasher-safe yet?  I bought one, but got
rid of it in one of my moves, because it was too hard to
clean properly!  (To be expected, I guess, when it was
invented by a man!) ;-)

Yes they do  they even make interchangeable ones for different type of
cooking

I do actually cook with my microwave but it's real purpose is to provide a
safe place to defrost fish/chicken.
