no brownies for me
Monday, January 4th, 2016 12:57 amI was about to make a batch of brownies - had even measured out the first ingredient, when I remembered that the oven isn't working at all anymore. A few days ago, it started going beep-beep-beep every minute and showed an error code which indicated a short in the touchpad panel. So I've ordered a replacement panel which should get here by next week; hopefully that will fix it and I won't have to replace the whole oven.
Yesterday I tested grinding the concrete with the diamond cup wheel. It works, but takes longer than cutting grooves, and makes a whole lot more dust. Since the grooves I did last week seem to be working fairly well so far, I cut more grooves with the flat blade. Hopefully that will suffice to keep rainwater from seeping into the garage. If not, I may cut another shallow groove right along the door to connect the other grooves.
Qiao was watching the 1994 movie "(Leon) The Professional" this evening, and so I watched too. The actor playing the 12 year old girl looked familiar. It was a young Natalie Portman - her first movie!
