Life with NO Microwave!

I know everyone must be thinking I am crazy, but who has time to buy a microwave when you're settling down? It's been nearly two weeks since we moved into our place and since then we have not had access to a microwave. 

Surprisingly, life has been quite simplified. I have more counter space because there isn't a bulky metal box sitting on there. I don't have to worry about the smells that may come from it if it's not kept clean. I also don't have to worry about all sorts of things getting underneath it because of the limited space, so my kitchen is definitely cleaner. Another plus side and most important to me the food when reheated tastes so much better. I am actually willing to eat leftovers now because they are close to fresh cooked when heated on the stove. 

I am not completely against microwaves. I have had one and used one for as long as I can remember. Not sure if I'll ever get one again. However, coming into this new place I thought I couldn't survive without one and here we are living simply, fine. A microwave is not on our priority list. 😋
