  Plop an induction cooktop on a standard (non-convection) self-cleaning oven and more of The Masses can now afford induction.   Frigidaire again?  Nope. Samsung.   Go ahead.  Search Home Depot and Lowe's and filter by price low to high.   Could Hotpoint be next?  Will Frigidaire cave in...

65 washes from a 64-load 100-oz. jug   Use a bartender's jigger (1 1/2 ounces).  Wipe the jigger with the last item into the washer.  You'll get an extra load with minimal impact on cleaning power.

Putting bigger hamsters in the wheels?

   Or a Lidl or a Save-A-Lot.  Of course, even they would have to charge more, but this much? https://www.stuaqpak.com/weekly-ad/

  How do you doll up complete (just add water) pancake mix?  I'll start . . .   Liquefy 1 banana, a teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 1/2 cups of water.  Gently blend into 2 cups of complete pancake mix.  Let rest 10 minutes.   The banana flavor becomes more intense when the syrup seeps...

It’s also possible. . . . . . Land O’ Frost makes ALDI’s Lunch Mate 1-pound bagged lunch meats. There’s a sign in the store that reads “You May Not Recognize the Name but You’ll Recognize the Taste.”

But when all is said and done . . .   . . . you're more likely to be killed by someone texting the link to the story while driving.

So hot at the washer. . . . . . that the Frigidaire Affinity flashed the “hoses reversed” code a couple times.

Gave it a hundred circular strokes . . .   . . . with some Wieman stovetop cleaner.  It's a little less visible.  Might be a metal mark like what happens to CorningWare.  I'll keep at it.  Stove still cooks like a champ.

And now, a few observations.   Arkadyan KVD21 gateway.   Not as many configuration options as the Motorola/Arris NVG599 like WiFi channel selection, guest networks, etc.  WiFi 6 seems to say “To each according to its needs”.  Devices are put on different WiFi channels with different maximum...
