and you don't have the funds to replace it what are your options in your house? I would use my toaster oven, my George Foreman, microwave, and crock pot. How about you? What would be your options?

You can in a toaster oven, you'd just need smaller pans and more time ;)

at the moment, we have an oven problem. the hob works, but the oven part not. we're doing okay. we have no microwave. with no appliances, I'm quite able to cook on a camping stove or open fire.

You're brave. The closest I'd get would be on an actual grill and that I haven't done in years as it's a "man thing" & hubby tends to that.

I would call my apartment manager to replace the oven. Maybe I'd get lucky and they'd get one that works better than the one I have now.

Sounds like a plan, do you think they'd replace mine though I don't rent?

We don't really use our oven that much. There are some things we use it for, especially if we are baking a cake, or some kind of casserole. Most of our cooking is done either via microwave or stovetop. Although, if there was something we wanted to make that needed an oven, we could make it, then drive it over to my mom and dad's. They live like half a mile from here, and I don't think there'd be any problem in taking the stuff over there to cook it.

I don't bake much other than when it's cooler temps as we are heading into spring / summer here soon the use of my oven will end.

Welp... I would break out my old trusty sticks and get to rubbing them together to build a fire and then I would... LOL... just kidding, but seriously I would use my crock pot, my outdoor cooking grill, my microwave, and my George Foreman grill also nice to meet you snuggle bunnies hope I made you smile:)

*LOL* NO thanks on the roughing it part, I'd be there all day trying to get a spark... I'd probably end up eating the sticks in the end.
