It's the boiling part that's too hard for me. My routine is: put a pot of water on to boil, go upstairs to study, and then come down a half-hour later to find the pot dry and ruined. Actually, come to think of it I guess that's why they make those whistling teapots people always have on TV and...

Thanks, I'm looking at some of the machines. It says you can use loose tea. That's supposed to be better than tea bags, right? I've only ever used bags. Also, I assume if I leave out the ice that I could also use these things to brew hot tea? There's one question that's hopefully addressed in...

I've been trying to not drink so much cola and instead drink tea which I like more and has less suger and more caffiene. Iced tea comes in 2-liters at the store, but it has too much sugar, 8/11 as much as cola does. I like a little sugar but not like that. Can I make iced tea with a a coffee...

Regarding packaging, most of it is in standard supermarket packaging, with a foam tray and shrink-wrap and top. Also those are loosely held in plastic grocery bags.

I have some various meat and fish in my freezer. (By "fresh" I just meant uncooked, some of it may have been frozen before I bought it.) I have some chicken and salmon that is two years old. Is that too old? How long does this stuff last? Forgive me if this has been asked before.

I like the basic Panasonic nonstick models.

By the way, I have a GE Quietpower, one of the ones under recall. (they come out and replace a few parts, or they offer $150 towards a new one.) We've had it for 7 years so far and it still works like new. It cleans very well, it has all the needed settings, and it has a timer. To be fair it's...

What is a good dishwasher? It's a machine that effectively washes dishes, and silverware, and pots and pans, but that's not important right now.
