I still don't have a microwave! That's right,we're almost a forth of the way through our rotation (time flies when you're having fun!) and I still don't have a microwave.
First we didn't get one because we didn't have any money. Then we didn't get one because we wanted the building management to put in an outlet above the stove like Keith and Flo's unit has. Then we didn't get one because I was gone for SUCH a long time. Now it's like 'why do we need one?'
Heating up leftovers is a little bit more time consuming and messy but they sure taste a lot better! I do have a few more pots and pans to wash - but I just put them in the dishwasher so what does it matter, right? Now I definitely feel no need to purchase a microwave while we're here - and I'm even debating if we need one when we return...
I wonder which is more environmentally friendly: the water/electricity for the extra dishwasher runs or the energy used to power the microwave?
Ah, who am I kidding. There's going to be a microwave already in the place we decide to live in and I'm going to use it like the energy wh*re I am...but I'm REALLY trying to be better :)
