But now I'm a bit frustrated, because, when the pie came out of the oven, I turned it off for a bit, until I got ready to bake a pizza for dinner. And when I turned the oven back on, it seemed to be taking forever to heat up. I waited and waited and waited - and finally went ahead and put the pizza in anyway, but it just wouldn't cook properly. I finally just finished it up in my roaster oven. Thankfully I had that down and ready to use, because I already planned to cook the turkey in it tomorrow - while I was baking the pies and rolls in the oven.
So now, I'm hoping it was just some random glitch and the oven decides to work tomorrow. If not, well, I guess everything will have to be cooked in the roaster. I started by baking a pumpkin pie tonight. It looks and smells great, so I know it's possible to bake everything in the roaster oven - it will just take a lot longer than I'd like.
This happened about 3 years ago, and we got it fixed, but it's not something I really wanted to have to deal with again - and the timing is really bad. Still, I can be very, very thankful that I do have the roaster oven, right? As well as plenty of food that needs to be cooked.
