Oh Boy you guys, here we go for the 2nd!!! Tuesday's questions.
I got a lot of good suggestions for a better title.
Here are just a few, (actually, these are all of them).
BUT before we get into that, I want to thank everyone for the support when I was messing up my template. Hearing from you really was comforting. I HATE that feeling in the pit of my stomach, when I realize that once again, I've screwed up.
I mess up so often, you'd think I'd be used to it!!!
But enough of that, (until next time), ON WITH THE SUGGESTIONS!!!!!

I like the title Ask Away Tuesday, and I also like Ask Betsy. (Note: I came up with the name: Ask away Tuesday, she's just referring to something I wrote to her!)
Tuesdays suggestion: "Tell it to me Tuesdays"

How about Ask away...oy vey! or
Q&A...oy vey! I think that sounds just like you!

Wasn't aware we were supposed to be thinking of titles for the feature. "Tuesdays with Betsy"? "The Trouble with Tuesdays" (except the day isn't the problem, it's the decorating challenges)? "Tuesday's Child's a Troubled Space"? "How-to-sday"? (Excessively corny, I know.) "Twenty-Question Tuesday"

How about Tough Love Tuesdays? Or "If this is Tuesday, this must
be Betsy?"
I also think "Ask Away Tuesday" is a great title.

Free Question Tuesday. (this wasn't really a suggestion, it is just what Christine from The Tin Can Cottage, called it.)
O.K. I have my favorite in mind, but what do you guys think?
Sooooooooooooooooo................
Yesterday was kinda rough. I spent the whole day ruining my blog.
I was really excited when I woke up, it was going to be a WONDERFUL day.
I was having the microwave oven over my range taken out and a really nice stainless steel hood put up instead.
I'm not crazy about the look of a microwave over a stove, but it was practical, and it wasn't broken, so there it stayed.
THEN!!!!! Oh Joy!!!! The damn thing broke, and they don't make parts for it any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WooHoo!!
Soooooooooooooooooooo........
After hours on the Internet, repeatedly changing my mind, trying to convince myself to be practical and get another over the range microwave.......
I DID WHAT I ALWAYS DO..............
Threw away practicality for looks.
This is the same way I used to date.
It didn't work then either.
Sooooooooooooooooo......
I web surfed for the smallest, prettiest countertop stainless steel microwave I could find. I would tuck it in next to my frig. I have the countertop space, so what the hell.
This is what I bought from Avanti, only $119.00....
It's really small: 11.25" H x 19" W x 15.75" D
fun retro look.
OK campers, these are the problems:
The timer doesn't show the seconds counting down, it reverts to the actual time, once the countdown starts.
I like to know how much time I have left when I'm cooking something, so I know just how much time I have to freak out.
next problem: Once it's done, it beeps a few times, like all microwaves do, AND THEN IT BEEPS EVERY @#$% TWO MINUTES AFTER THAT UNTIL YOU OPEN THE DOOR!!!!!!
Sooooooooooo, if you are cooking something in the microwave, while you are sitting at your desk writing,... oh, I don't know,... let's say...A BLOGGGGGG!!!!!, it keeps nudging you, and nudging you, and nudging you. OY!!!!!
And the final problem:
It's so small, that it is too light. So when I go to open the door, the whole oven moves. I have to hold it in place with one hand, while I open the door with the other hand.
OY!!!!!
OK, so where was I? Oh yeah, yesterday. So the really nice man came to take away my old microwave and install my new super duper very expensive hood.
And of course he couldn't finish the installation because there were old tiles behind the microwave that had to come out before the hood went up.
I will post all the pictures next week, after it's all done.
I am being VERY mature, and waiting PATIENTLY!!!!
OK, now for the linky party!!!!!
I copied this from savvy southern style, so thank you Kim!!!
(I hope it's OK, 'cuz I didn't ask)
