We've had a few dud buys lately.
The new teapot does a weird job of pouring but at least doesn't slop tea around.
SWMBO bought a second copy of the New Yorker that we bought last week.
We replaced the coffee maker with a new one that has a bigger pot and extra controls (old one was on and off). I set it up and we did the required initial dummy runs to clear the dust out and made coffee. I managed to set the clock. A midnight I heard it "beep" and looked at it and it was sizzling a bit. So I pushed a few buttons and then unplugged it. Checked the instructions and saw how to set the auto-timed brew but no note on disabling it. They do tell you to unplug it if it's not going to be used and not to leave the empty carafe on the heater. OK. Now why do they have a clock on it, since it goes back to midnight when it's turned on again?
(Lynn: moderato ma non troppo is a musical instruction: moderately, but not too much. It doesn't show up very often.)
