Small Kitchen Appliances
Kitchen appliances have come along way since our grandmother’s time. Just fifty years ago, a woman was proud to have an electric coffee pot! She thought she’d died and gone to heaven when the electric frying pan came on the market. Now, if you rent or buy an older home, you’ll find yourself in trouble if you try to run that electric frying pan, the microwave and coffee maker all at the same time. The breakers blow, because the circuitry wasn’t intended for all these gadgets. Time to rewire!

One of the most useful of all the modern appliances has got to be the toaster oven. With the high cost of electricity, it’s not smart to run the regular kitchen oven to bake a couple of potatoes. You’d probably use ten times the cost of the potatoes in electricity with which to cook them.
During the holidays, a toaster oven keeps side dishes warm while you’re carving the roast or making gravy. You can bake a pie, roast a chicken, cook some biscuits or set it on warm for a few minutes,then turn it off to let bread dough rise with the door ajar.
The most versatile of kitchen appliances, you can use your toaster oven as a broiler for a quick grilled cheese sandwich or to broil up a juicy burger for lunch.
