Oh microwave, sweet microwave!
It's bout time you get a day
So much time for me you save
I hope you will always stay.
A home cooked meal
My family gets
It is a thrill
This household never forgets!
Oh microwave microwave I must say
You make our family complete
Please tell me you will forever stay,
Bon appetit!
St Nicholas was a pretty cool cat:
Saint Nicholas was a fourth century Greek bishop of Mira, which is now part of Turkey.
He was born to wealthy parents, but became an orphan at a young age when his parents died in an epidemic.
The devout Christian dedicated his life to helping the poor and needy, and even spent his inheritance on the cause.
Because of the miracles attributed to him, he is sometimes known as Nikolaos the Wonderworker.
He was particularly known for his secret gift giving and gained a reputation for leaving coins in people’s shoes.
National Miners Daya day designated by Congress to honor the contributions and sacrifices of miners both past and present.
(Very appropriate)
National Microwave Day
I enjoyed Yin's "Ode to the Microwave." (Sung perhaps to the tune of O Tannenbaum?) Not a day goes buy that my wife and I don't use ours multiple times.
I always remember when my kids asked, "Dad how did you cook before they invented a microwave?" I also remember our first microwave. I did a lot of research on it before we made the big purchase so I was the expert, right. I decided our first meal would be a chicken. I followed the recepie in the "microwave cook book". I will spare you all the gory details, (I did not brown the meat in a regular oven first), however a chicken or turkey in a microwave for almost an hour is officially cooked but it is the most
unappetizing naked piece of white meat you will every see.
Funny u should ask. My microwave bit the dust yesterday and its hard living wothout one. St Nick I could go for. I have no interest in miners.
I need my microwave when I need to reheat. Other than that I could do without.
Not a bad day. But I'm going to pass. Thank you Otis!!
I find microwaves interesting because they run by electromagnetic radiation, and because of this can actually interfere with other electronic appliances. Used to be a somewhat common problem in regards to wifi or bluetooth because due to regulations, they had to be using the same public broadband. (Now appliances actually do frequency-hopping, which means that it switches the frequency which it is on to avoid being on the exact same broadband with another appliance for too long to cause intereference.)
Gotta love old St. Nick! And I do appreciate my microwave. Bless the miners ... They have a tough job.
I did and been doing it as well.
Didn't find the answer you were looking for?
