the toaster situation

I'm not particularly fond of toasters.  I don't go around eating much toast because A. I don't make my own bread very often. B. When I do have bread, it's usually store bought and that's expensive as all get out and C. I prefer french toast than regular toast.

I went off toasters in college when I lived in the world's smallest apartment with a teeny kitchen closet.  Not a closet in the kitchen.  The kitchen was in a closet.  You could see where they took the doors off, the hinges were still there.  Anyways, there was about 1 square foot of counter space and I added about 6 square feet more with a microwave cart that I set my microwave upon and effectively ate up about 4 of those square feet.  Also the 2 square feet left folded down so I had more room to get around the world's smallest apartment.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that I couldn't bring all of my kitchen accouterments to live with me, so the toaster was eliminated.  She stayed in a purple rubbermaid container for about 2 and half years and was forgotten.  I learned to make toast under the broiler.  This is a thrilling endeavor because it's either not done enough or burnt to all hell in a period of about 48 seconds.  It takes a while longer than a toaster, but with some planning, it's not a big deal.  Plus if you want 3 pieces of toast, then you can make 3 pieces on one go, dangit!

I come from a house that possesses two toasters.  The "gluten" toaster and the "gluten free" toaster.  Oh the stress and hassle.  In my current house, we don't have this issue because the only gluten items are the beer in the basement and the dog food [also in the basement].

Now to my point, last night, Justin informed me that he wanted to buy a $10 toaster to bring to work.  This sounded dumb to me because don't all work places have a break room with a toaster?  [the break room is far too far away].  You don't need a toaster because we're going to try and eat healthier once this baby comes and that certainly doesn't involve toast [but can't I toast paleo bread?] <- Joke's on him, that stuff will fall apart so fast, his head will spin.  Well fine, if you feel like you need a toaster, just take our's. [BUT THEN WE WON'T HAVE A TOASTER HERE] Of course my rebuttal was that we have an oven which is better than a toaster anyways.  He disagrees.  So I guess that joker is going to buy a toaster for work.  Also I'm supposed to be hardboiling eggs as we speak because I said I would if I didn't go into labor and would you look at that?  I'm not in labor.

This is all very uninteresting.  Just wait until I get inspired to write about the butter knife that I don't trust in my drawer.
