You'd think it would be easy to find a range. It's not like you're ever unreasonable. But it can be a bear sometimes finding what you need. How long did I look for a fridge and then there it was when I least expected it? Not exactly the color I'd choose, stainless with the grey sides, but I appreciate it every day that I don't have to be on my knees to scrounge something from the back of a shelf. We'll integrate the colors by a wise choice of flooring. Where there's a will there's a way.

Now I know what to look forward to when we go to buy a range. Jeez! Last time we got one I told hubby I want an inexpensive gas range so long as it was almond (easy to find back then), sealed burners and was self cleaning. It took me 5 minutes.

These days, I know it might not be that easy. I want gas, sealed burners and self cleaning. But I also want grates that can go into the dishwasher. And I want 5 burners. Being at high altitude I gave up on fancy baking long ago so it's not supposed to be hard for me to get a basic range. But I'm prepared for a battle because I also don't want to spend like I'm a diva.

Glad your pancakes have been brought under control!
