Zero Energy Homes...pretty interesting

http://www.zeroenergydesign.com/Architecture.htm

This website has caught my attention most of this week.  If you are thinking about building a home or are just interested in seeing what options we have to save energy or use free energy, check it out.

I was amazed at some of the options out there.

Now, I'm dreaming about the possibility of building one.

Beware, the article is very long and at times the author gets so angry with people who don't consider this option that he insults us if we don't follow his advice.  I kinda skimmed over the very end, but for the most part, I was engrossed.

I'm was mainly amazed that I could have huge windows, live more luxuriously and have some options I've never thought about.  The author recommends just using a slow cooker and a microwave to cook with though.  I don't think I am willing to give up my oven and stove.  I can't really imagine cooking a whole chicken in a microwave. (Anyway, I have a NuWave Oven that saves tons of energy and makes the food very tender and delicious.  I just wish that the dome wasn't plastic.  I know that using plastic in a microwave isn't healthy...I really hope that the dome isn't harming me slowly.  The food tastes so good, I wonder if I would taste the plastic chemicals if it was creating any?)

 
 
   
 

Potluck Smorgasbord
Thanks to everyone that nominated my guitar vlog from yesterday. That was so not what I expected to happen. That one almost became my first friends-only post, but instead it was unleashed on the world. There's no going back now. Are you ready for some mediocre rock covers, world? You better be. I may post again. Or I may not. Will we ever know the answer?

In other news, my DVR that has been acting all screwy since the day I got it has been running fine for 4 straight days now. It even survived a weekend alone! From the sounds of it, my Pelican System Selector Pro which allows me to run all my numerous game consoles and other inputs to the TV, all in HD, is acting up. As soon as I took that out of the mix and ran the DVR straight into the TV and receiver, it started to work fine. So I put the Xbox 360 into the System Selector in the DVR's spot and what happens? I get an Xbox 360 error code on startup. I go online and research the error code and it says I have a problem with my AV cable. The AV cable that never had a problem before but is now plugged into the system selector. It looks like I've found my culprit. Can anyone recommend an input selector that has several component and optical audio hookups? Anyone?

And finally, I burnt my hand last night when making dinner. I was making pizza. My hand was in the over for all of about 6 seconds and I managed to rest it on the roof of the inside of the oven.  The score is now:
AAP - 0
Oven - 1

But I'm so going to get even with you, oven. You won't expect it, either. I'll be in the kitchen, just grabbing some milk out of the refrigerator and you'll be all minding your own business when BAM! Karate chop! PWND!  AAP FTW!
 
 
 

   
Um, yeah, so........
Yeah, so I had in my head yesterday that I wanted chocker chip cookies.  When we were at Target today, I got some of those tollhouse ones that you just bake and break.  This will also give me a chance to test out my oven.  (Side note - it's kinda making a funny smell now.)

I just went into the kitchen to check on how much time they had left, and realized I had left the cookies on the counter, instead of putting them in the oven.

And that's my blonde moment for the day.  :)

"oops, my oven disintegrated"

Amusing. We set the oven to 350 degrees to make a few french fries when BZZZZT POP. The heating element melted.

Re: Black Friday, brief memo - If only ALL the stores had thought of the doughnuts. Those always help.
