Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Question about residential electric ovens and common meals

[Edwin Simmers (edwinsimmers]

We recently installed an electric Jenn-Air convection wall oven under a kitchen 
counter to supplement the oven in our 6-burner Wolff range. Now it’s easier to 
feed hungry diners for common meals in our 33-unit cohousing community, 
Bellingham Cohousing.
