    Look who's heading back to the kitchen

    But without Estate, Victor or Whirlpool. And no induction so far. https://largeappliances.rca.com/

    AOL ending dial-up internet September 30.

    Pretty sure it won't be affecting anyone here but if it is, sound off! Cheapest and most readily available alternative? Probably 5G home internet, especially if no one has any plans of bringing fiber to your street. https://help.aol.com/articles/dial-up-internet-to-be-discontinued

    Rear-control induction stoves rise from the dead.

    A pair of Frigidaires wait in the wings. Listed as "not in stock" at Home Depot and not yet appearing on the induction stoves home page at Frigidaire.com. A few independent appliance dealers are listing them. https://www.frigidaire.com/en/p/kitchen/ranges/induction-ranges/FCRI3062AS...

    IH Visions Induction Compatible Vitro-Ceramic Cookware

    Dare we hope they'll sell it in the USA? Contacted Corelle Brands' USA branch about it and offered to test it. Stay tuned. So far only for sale in the Asia Pacific market. Only place you can't use it is in the microwave oven. Even Google Shopping can't find anyone selling it on the "gray...

    $500.00 more for 2-minute pizza? I'll wait.

    https://www.frigidaire.com/en/collections/pizza For an extra $500.00, you can trick out Frigidaire's "15+ ways to cook" stoves (induction, electric, gas) with a 750 degree F pizza oven feature including a pizza stone and peel (oversized spatula). Now, if I also made a lot of pita, nan and...

    Your thoughts on a second midlife crisis: Subaru Impreza Turbine Tribute

    Some AI generated images for a custom car project I've been mulling. Yes, there really is a car paint color called Chrysler Turbine Bronze. So, with some custom badging, I'm thinking of turning my 2013 Impreza into a tribute to a piece of automotive history, mostly the exterior. The only...

    Before Walmart, Target and Kmart, there was Sage's Complete Shopping

    Today's The Mega Brands That Built America features the three chains in the subject but not a single mention of regional ahead-of-the-times chains like Sage's Complete Shopping in San Bernardino county. The one in Rialto had a grocery store, a hot foods deli, a coffee shop, jewelry department...

    What? No "Touch-N-Cook"?

      Frigidaire has an innovations timeline on their website as part of their "Daire To Expect More" ad campaign.  Conspicuously absent is any mention of the Touch-N-Cook range, cooktops, wall ovens and microwave ovens.   When you search Home Depot for single-oven 30-inch induction ranges, over...

    Induction stoves: GE joins the Under $2,000.00 Club

      With a model that appears to be made in the same factory as some Forno, Kenmore and Rangaire induction stoves.  An easily customized configuration from China that boutique brands like GE Profile and Cafe can offer cheap without actually manufacturing them.  ...

    A cryptic email from Polaroid

      With an equally cryptic image.     Recently, they've been circumspect about bringing back peel-apart film but it's possible the apple (which has a peel) could be hinting that they may have changed their mind.  The emphasis on "analog" rules out some sort of alliance with Apple, even with...

    iPhone, . . . wha-?

      Yeah, Cathy and I said good-bye to our iPhone SEs and got a pair of iPhone 16es.  So when I ran the Speedtest iOS app, the app called it something else, something not even on the market yet.  Probably a bug that'll be fixed in the next app update from Ookla.  Pretty sure I didn't get an...

    A new BOL Frigidaire induction range waits in the wings at Home Depot and Lowe's

    "Out of stock" most likely means "Not yet in stock" as the MSRP isn't lined out and replaced with the selling price.  It adds Air Fry which is missing from the current least expensive Frigidaire.  It's less feature-rich than the $1,498.00 model with the "15+ ways to cook" oven.  Lowe's also...

    Circulon ScratchDefense dirt cheap

      Sorry I didn't post this sooner.  Circulon is blowing out their TV chef sets for a steal compared to what I paid.   Induction-ready, dishwasher safe and metal utensil tolerant (though I still use nylon, wood and bamboo).   The ScratchDefense sets are the first two items on the page.  The...

    Which Canadian grocery chain locks up its carts like ALDI?

      So, I'm watching The Red Green Show and Steve Smith who plays Red Green is making another of his improbable creations requiring a shopping cart as one of its parts and blurts out "You'll find them in front of (I wasn't paying full attention and missed the name).  They're only a quarter."  ...

    Conventional electric ranges: the phase-out begins?

      Frigidaire's USA website has a link to the Electrolux USA site and vice-versa.  Electrolux no longer offers conventional electric ranges to US customers.  Just induction, gas and dual fuel in that order:   https://www.electrolux.com/en/ranges   It's just one slightly upscale brand for...

    The greatest thing since sliced bread?

      Well, if it's bread-related, I nominate the switch from cellophane to the plastic bag with its wire tie or small plastic closure device.      When you open cellophane, it starts to tear along the initial cut.  Since you can't close it back up, you had to put the rest of the loaf in an...
