	As you know, I have not been up to my usual, not very high, domestic standards for some time. Today, I have made pizza dough in the bread machine and it is just about to go in the pre-heated oven. Hmf, that is, if I can find the cooker through the smoke!

	I am hoping a lot of the cack was burned off today and I might even do the shelves tomorrow in my special tray I have specifically for soaking oven shelves but which is also handy for keeping potting plants in before you put them in the garden.

	Hey if it works for my neighbours and their BBQ's why not the oven! Actually my self-cleaning just burns it off and yes lots of smoke, with me thinking all the time....but I didn't spill anything and everything was covered!! How was the Pizza anyway?

	It tasted of dirty oven! They ate it!

	I think you meant smokey....they charge a small fortune for authentic smokey taste in restaurants!

	Wish I was like that. Even when I haven't been mad I have never been that particular about my oven but I have never,ever had my bath get into the condition it was before I did the washing soda job on it.

	Get to our age cleaning ovens or anything else is not important so long as you're happy that's what really counts! :-D
