I've always had self-cleaning ovens. Or I should say, the only times I've ever cleaned my oven were when I had self-cleaning ovens. It's possible I had others that weren't but it just never occurred to me to clean them. :laugh:

I've cleaned many an oven. I'd probably faint if a renter actually cleaned the oven before leaving the place. :laugh:
It's not as bad as you might think. You remove any crusty stuff, then spray on the oven cleaner, leave it to do its work, and then wipe it off. If you have nice thick rubber gloves, it's a piece of cake.

No, I don't have a self-cleaning oven. It's pretty easy, as Lee said. Fortunately, I didn't have a lot of "crusty" stuff around to clean. When I cook/bake in the oven, I put aluminum foil on the racks, so if anything should bubble/spill over, it's just a matter of removing the foil. It was really just a matter of removing the spatter. I sprayed it with the Easy-off, let it sit for 40 minutes, and then was able to wipe it right off, and then give everything a quick rinse.
;D

Hiya BetterMost friends.
Happy Hump Day everyone!
I hope that everyone is having a great week! The week is flying by, and I'm going to miss having the time to sleep in when I want to! :laugh:
That being said, everything I wanted to get done this week on my time off is falling into place. Here is my original list:

and here it is updated, everything that is done is crossed off.

serious crayons:
What did you get for your Easter supplies?
Also, what is "straighten slanted albums hung on the wall"? Is it that you use album covers like paintings or posters, as wall decoration? I'm curious, because some of these are pretty big projects -- curtains, for example -- whereas if the albums are crooked, couldn't you just reach out and straighten them any time you notice it? Or is it more complicated than that?
