Now you're cooking with...Sunlight!


We have lots of things lacking in this country, but one thing we are not short of is sunshine! During these hot summer days when the last thing I want to do is turn on the oven, and the electric bill could also use some whittling down, Claudia and I built the perfect solution - a solar cooker! Here it is in its first test run. Here's a good website! with instructions on how to build your own. The sun and flames decorations were my whimsical addition. You'll need two cardboard boxes that fit inside the other, about a half a kilo of plastic glue, a bit of patience, and creativity.
