That tortilla soup sounds lovely. You could garnish with some cheddar shreds and cilantro too

My wife is one of those folks to get the soap taste with cilantro. I had my bowl with lots of cheese

Me too, cilantro is gross!

Oh yum...mug cake sounds so good!

Love me some cilantro though...yumalicious!

Thanks @Britesea! I'm trying really hard not to replace the microwave. Why? I dunno, lol. Just wanted to see if we could live without it. But, mainly I don't want to replace it if it can be repaired. I think it would only take a very inexpensive little part to fix it...but youtube says something about one of the parts storing electric current so be very careful when you replace it. YIKES! DH isn't loving the idea of no microwave though. But, in reality the only time I miss it is when I'm heating the milk for the goat's bottle.

FEM- there are so many affordable microwaves out there now. No need to repair if you can replace something like that. For safety sake.

Ugh...we have one too. I love it...and hate it. DH installed it. I helped. Kinda. Sorta. Love it because there is NO room on the counter for one, or room for a micro cart. It is big....1,000 watts. I do alot of cooking with it.
It has a great exhaust fan. And stove light. And it is new. 2012.

Hate the part that...I am short..and have spilled hot food removing it. Difficult to clean. Did I mention...I am short?

Oh man - I understand your challenge! Along with being inconvenient - it is definitely dangerous to think that you might (and have) dumped hot food on yourself. So, are you short? LOL!

Who....me? I used to be....5'2". Then, middle age seems to have shrunk me down to 5'1"

When I had a Chevy Astro van, early 90's, I had to use this HUGE pillow for a booster seat...so I could see over the dash t drive it. I pretty much stick to Japanese cars, and STILL, must pull the seat up all the way.
