My cooktop with a pot.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

Why am I posting this? Well, several months ago, that burner stopped working, and I thought it could never be fixed. So I left it. Then another burner quit and that was too much. I decided to explore finding someone who's competent at this sort of thing, and see what can be done.
Long story short, it was accomplished. I was very happy. And tonight I got to use that burner for the first time in a long time.

I'm celebrating!

1. That is wondeful, Ms Peggy. So glad you can celebrate!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Thank you, my dear niyad! It's wonderful to have a functioning cooktop again. I've missed having all those burners.

5. I can well understand that. I seldom use more than one, especially

in summer. It is jjust me. .although I do occasionally cook for my kitty.

3. Dang Peggy, that's more knobs than the flight engineer's panel of a Boeing 707!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. Wow, that's amazing, my dear Bo Zarts! hahaha!

That was truly funny, and thank you for your great comment. I was being very silly posting this, but I really wanted to celebrate!

Great to see you tonight!

6. Many enjoy lighting up some pot

but maybe you shouldn't leave it out in the open for all to see.

10. One might even say "You're cooking with gas." Good Deal!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. One could indeed say that, and that would be just right! Thank you, dear George!

11. Congrats on the Stove, but please let me say:

MY favorite part of that picture is that pan, right up front.
I recognize it from the shape, especially that handle: Revereware.

We had several of those all the way back in the seventies,
and my parents still have and use them to this day.
Wonderful cookware!

You keep yours well, too! That pan shines like the day you bought it,
even as the handle tells a much longer tale. I'd guess it's boiled
a lot of vegetables over many, many years.

If I might ask, does that copper bottom have the double ring around the logo?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. Thanks so much for your fascinating comments, my dear moonbatmax!

You are correct: this is one of my Revereware pans! It has seen many such vegetables over many years. I no longer remember just how long I've had it.

The current dishwasher is great on the copper bottom! It polishes so well. Love the color!

As for the copper bottom having a double ring around the logo, I have no idea! But I will look and if I find it, you will see another photo!
