You're right, a toaster oven is much better. @Sommer - My grandmother (83) is the queen of using bleach, but my great grandmother used vinegar mostly. Interesting how that works! @Lindsay - Vacuuming is a never ending job with us. It seems like dust and hair (ours) accumulates faster than we can get rid of it. @Fridge @Daniel @Johanna- Thanks! @Adam – We got rid of the microwave too (after it broke!) and never got another one.

Looking back on it, there's really nothing it did for us that a small toaster oven can't do better. Knowing now that all that microwave popcorn wasn't the healthiest (duh?) of foods just reinforces our decision. We recently got rid of our microwave and all I can say is good riddance!

I really like some of your products. I think that working towards being safer is always a work in progress. We learn something new everyday. I realized recently how my great grandma used baking soda and vinegar and then my grandma used bleach and harsh chemicals. The jump in generations from natural to toxins. Hmm? Excellent post.
