My Tea Kettle
One might question what my tea kettle has to do with gaming. And I’ll admit, not very much. The only way I can make this one relevant at all is because it happened in the hour before raiding in which I wanted the tea. I have never really had a real tea kettle. Most days, I get by with nuking the water. My parents gave me a real whistling kettle for Christmas so I thought I’d try it out. I did everything right and reading the instructions it told me that a gas stove should be on low to medium. So, of course, I find a happy medium and put the water on to boil.
10 minutes later, I explain to the guild that I’m waiting on this water to boil and I think it’s taking a long time. Ten minutes after that, Enkida points out that she hopes my water is still not waiting to boil.
The moral of this story is that water takes 212 degrees to boil (says Tyrolos) and it won’t get there on low heat.
That tea was pretty yummy, though!
