A New Oven!

While we were searching for our new fridge, I would take a peek at the ovens because we knew once we installed our new kitchen stovetop we would be without an oven.  So we needed to find a stand-alone oven. And one day we found a double oven for an excellent price!  So we bought it and had it delivered home, and it sat and looked pretty in our kitchen until our old oven started to die, and we knew we were finally going to need the new one.

Mark was going to build a cabinet to put the double oven in, but happened to stop at the Habitat for Humanity and found this nice cabinet for only $40!

(Yes, it's the wrong color, but it saved a lot of time, money, and effort! :)

Mark had a few minor adjustments that needed to be done, but the cabinet must have held a double oven originally, because the opening was *almost* the right size.  I had to help him move the double oven into the cabinet, and that was very difficult (this required a lever and building up wood beneath the oven in order to raise it to the height of the opening).  That thing is heavy!

And here is our lovely, installed, oven:

Having the double oven has been real handy!  We used it at Thanksgiving and Christmas, plus I bake a lot of quiches, etc., so I use our oven quite a bit.  :)
