    That’s how she gets those 30 minute meals. Mine take at least an hour. Turn the heat up I guess.

    I was wondering the same thing. Then I remember reading somewhere that Pablo Escobar would have the A/C cranking full blast while the fireplace is roaring at the same time in his mansion in Colombia. For the ambience. One can do these outlandish things with enough money in the bank I guess.

    Maybe they were using the fireplace as an air conditioner. You know, because fireplaces are so "inefficient".

    We've watched a ton of Rachel Ray on TV. She probably started the fire by burning bread in the oven from forgetting it was in there on broil. :rofl: :lol:
