I bought one from +- electornics. That one - http://www.plussmiinus.ee/ee/kook/lauapliit?vaata=KML3001 But it's only for two months anyway. You could use your friends' ovens!? : D You can buy little ovens from almost electronics selling shop in here, Tartu. I bought one from +- electornics.

Just to have an extra burner. It's only two months. It'll be an adventure :) Do they have a place where you can buy one of those plug-in electric burners? Just to have an extra burner.

It’s only two months. It’ll be an adventure :)

You lost me at "stoveless." Hmmm...What the biggest available toaster oven? This is going to be a serious cooking adventure, although for Summertime, I bet you won't even miss it!

This is going to be a serious cooking adventure, although for Summertime, I bet you won’t even miss it!

That is fascinating, but I am skeptical. That said I could easily plant that thing on the roof outside of our skylights. @Jenny: Your comment got me thinking. I think the secret is to focus on cuisine from other "oven-less" countries where techniques like roasting aren't common or used at all. If I look at this time as an excuse to research recipes from those parts of the world, it's an adventure and not a limitation.

While it does take some adapting (want a cake? try cupcakes instead), a toaster oven is a pretty solid substitute. I've even made the focaccia recipe from this site in it :) Enjoy the new apartment; it looks beautiful!

But no oven is rough! Highly recommend buying a small toaster oven as temporary measure - the inexpensive basic ones painted white - which runs on a timer. You can do a lot with one of those as long as it doesn't have any electronic sensors inside. They cost between 10 and 25 euros, depending on which one you find where. Hello Blake,

No trick photography to make that place look good, no six foot lofts lacquered forest green, and tons of Thonet. I'm jealous. Get a solar oven. Your new place is absolutely beautiful.

As for the burner battle, sounds like the power is intermittant. Maybe you have a short? Maybe you can cobble together a solar oven like the one shown here: http://www.solarovens.org/
