Valerie – It’s not very tippy, so no great concern there. They’re more likely to hurt themselves climbing on a wood pile now! Don’t have an infrared thermometer – perhaps one day. They’re not as expensive as I thought. And yes, we’ve cooked every lunch and supper in it since it had its first fire lit. Despite its sufficiency, it certainly has motivated me anew to build a proper, larger oven.
Maki – you’ll thank me after. ;)

This is fantastic. No problem with it tumbling in the summer when the gals are scrambling about? Do you have one of those infrared thermometers? That is what Colleen and Vince use to tell how hot their oven is. It can get past a thousand…way past.
The bread would be divine.
And then?
Ar eyou cooking in it every night?

John – what it lacks in optimality it makes up for in intuitive simplicity.
Jeff – small world indeed. Crazy that there’s not just one, but two connections there!
Alan – thanks! Look forward to seeing your masonry project.

kevin

interestingly enough, it appears that your wife may have gone to school with my older brother. Out in spruce grove. Dave Machin is his name. he graduated in 2005 from st thomas.

This came to light through a good friend of my wife’s (jackie burko) who also knows your wife. I was talking about something I had seen on your blog and she knew of your last name.

its a small world eh…
