New appliance!

My electric stove died.  The heating element in the oven melted one day while I was cooking supper.  The roast wasn't even done.  I had to cook it in a pot on the top of the stove.  The drip pans were a pain to clean.  The wire that held one of the elements in place was broken.  I had to wiggle the burners when I washed the stove to get them to sit right.  Alright I will break down and get a new stove.  I just hope I can get one that isn't all electronic.  You know how I am with that stuff! 

I hopped in the car, this was an alone shopping trip, he had better things to do.  I walked around the stove section in the store.  Wow, there were some that you need to read the book every time you go near it.  Count them out!  Ah, here are two I like.  One is steam clean and one is self clean.  The salesman explained the difference.  I want the self cleaner, but I like the color of the other one.  He did have the one I liked in the color I liked.  It has burners that are built in, no more drip pans.  I wonder if I will like it.  Okay deliver it.  I was hoping within a day or two.  Delivery was five days away.  I guess I have to cope with no oven till then. 

Friday came and it was delivered first.  It fit and looked great.  Bob asks, "Where's the burners?"  He was amazed as to how it worked too.  Now come the instructions - no glass on the top, and this is the cleaner for the top.  Then he tells me to read the instructions before I use it.  Not if you want supper now.  Yes, I got away with it.  Just don't tell him I needed to get the book out to bake and time the cake I made today, part is electronic....
