(no subject)

Friday I popped a corned beef in the crock pot and wiped out the oven; the door came nicely clean.  Re- sprayed the rest of the nasty crust in the oven with more Easy-off and left it to sit again.  Made the run to the bank to return Leofwyna's passport to the deposit box.  When Leofwyna got up she went outside to work and I tried to finish cleaning the oven.  I made some progress but there's still lots of crust in the upper corners.  I haven't decided yet which way to go... more Easy-off or another, longer, heat treatment.  If I go for heat though I need to wait until tomorrow when the windows can be left open.
