  1. So I could turn off the switch. Long answer: Last weekend I installed new firmware in my Wi-Fi access point. Afterwards two smart outlets were not responsive. This typically happens when I make changes to the access point. I know from past experience all that is required is to manually turn the outlets off and on. One of the outlets I could reach. The other is underneath a desk. Even in the best of times it is difficult for me get underneath the desk. These are not the best of times. Thus I removed the aforementioned switch protector and turned off the wall switch, waited a few moments and turned the wall switch back on. Neglecting to remember that the freezer is controlled by the same wall switch as the smart outlet. Which is the reason I got the switch protector in the first place. Afterwards the smart outlet worked just fine. Tonight I cleaned the freezer and used a little bleach. I shall miss the ice cream.
  2. KitchenAid Precise Heat Mixing Bowl? (Blame Kerry.)
  3. You don't understand. I have a switch protector. I had to remove the switch protector to get to the switch.

    If the white stuff on the upper right is cauliflower...yes. Welcome back.
  5. Thank you for asking. No. But that has nothing to do with the freezer. I now realize that I accidentally turned off the freezer last weekend when I turned off a light switch.
  6. I cooked and ate some of it, wished I hadn't, and pitched the rest. If you don't hear from me you know what happened.
  7. Cooking some stuff at the moment. I have no idea how long the food has been at room temperature. This freezer does not automatically restart after a power outage.
  8. I shall never again not notice that my freezer has stopped working and that everything has melted.
  9. I wasn't given the option. The oven decided for itself.
  10. No, sorry, I was complaining about the balance of the Atlantis sauce pan. My Demeyere saucier is from the John Pawson line, not Atlantis, although I believe the construction is similar.
  11. I have lots of Falk and some Demeyere. One problem I have with Atlantis is that most of the weight is in the bottom, making poring unwieldy. When I want a pot, what I usually grab is Fissler.
  12. My oven firmware updated itself to 2.0.11. No problems. Oven works fine, both manually and from the app.
  13. As things go, a little ice is not all that messy. What would have been messy is if I had hit the floor.
  14. I shall never again trip and spill the ice, stepping backwards from the freezer where stuff was starting to fall out.
  15. Yesterday a patron of the library at which I work brought me a quick bread. She is known to be an excellent and prolific baker. I was not yet on desk when she dropped off the gift, and I reached only her voice mail when I called to thank her. I assumed of course that it was zucchini bread. I'm not a fan of banana or pumpkin bread. I tried a piece of her bread after dinner for dessert. It is made from carrots, nuts, and a lot of cinnamon. The texture and sweetness level are perfect. If there is any zucchini in there, it is well hidden. Possibly the most enjoyable quick bread I have ever had.
  16. Not a recall exactly, however the NY Times reports 16 people sickened in a Salmonella outbreak linked to ground beef sold at Shoprite.

    Fruit

    I just had a red nectarine that was worth eating. I ate it over the sink and still managed to get it up my nose.
  18. Thank you for your good wishes. I neglected to note that Modernist bread recommends baking on a steel only if you are using a combi oven (such as the CSO or APO).
  19. @Ann_T, I bake my bread on a steel, but due to health issues I haven't baked in months.

    They are. Wish I had discovered piparra peppers earlier in life. Three more jars arrived from Supermarketitaly.

  24. Try a factory reset. I wouldn't want to be working for anova tech support this moment.
