"I won't dare look at a frying pan again this week, and my term ends with the week," he said, between bites. Next came baked potatoes. These had been done on the electric toaster, right aboard the Chelton, and while scarcely a correct following for salad, the first was given as an appetizer, and the potatoes as food.
Usually Lizzie brought in a plate of hot toast and then some one at the table made additional pieces on the toaster, but this morning there was no supply to begin with.
Cut the desired number of slices, making each about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Place the slices on a toaster over a bed of clear coals or on a broiler under a slow gas flame. Turn the bread frequently until it assumes an even light brown on both sides. Remove from the heat, spread each slice with butter, and serve while hot and crisp.
"They are sweet. They would be excellent to roast in the woods." "I never heard of a potato being sweet," said Isaiah. "Yes," said Marco. "They have plenty of them in New York." "Then why don't they call them New York potatoes?" asked Isaiah. "Why, I believe they came from Carolina first," said Marco. "And now I want a long stick for a toaster."

It was a cold March morning, and Eva looked very chilly, and perhaps it was that which made the kindly Scotchwoman suggest the toast and draw up a chair for her before the bright kitchen fire, for as a matter of fact she generally made it on the toaster. Eva was only too glad to sit close to the fire and watch the good woman moving so quietly about and yet getting everything so quickly.
One wire broiler. One toaster. One waffle-iron. One can-opener. Three pairs of common knives and forks. One small Scotch or frying kettle. One chopping-knife. One meat-knife. One bread-knife. One set of skewers. Trussing-needles. Two large mixing-bowls, holding eight or ten quarts each. One eight-quart lip-bowl for cake. Half a dozen quart bowls. Half a dozen pint bowls.
Not one person in a hundred makes good toast; yet nothing can be simpler. Cut the slices of bread evenly, and rather thin. If a wire toaster is used, several can be done at once. Hold just far enough from the fire to brown nicely; and turn often, that there may be no scorching. Toast to an even, golden brown.
The broiler b, which may also be used as a toaster, is located directly beneath the oven, and to the right are the burners c for cooking. The gas for these parts is contained in the pipe d, which is connected to a pipe joined to the gas main in the street. To get heat for cooking it is simply necessary to turn on the stop-cocks and light the gas.
Ain't it all just wonderful! An' what in power do you s'pose she'll do with it all?" Susanna rather reluctantly yielded the toaster, looking speculatively over her spectacles at her would-be helper. Here was another man gone daft, or apparently so. Then she remarked, testily: "I don't see what's happened all you men to talk so odd.
