When I watched the movie, The Lion King, I really liked the opening song, The Cycle of Life. Always thought it to be very pertinent.What that has to do with a kettle you may well wonder.
The first time I went to visit with David and Lisa in Dallas they had a kettle on their cook top for heating water for cups of tea.
It always seemed to take ages to heat up the water and so I recommended to Lisa that they get an electric kettle as I felt it would do the job more efficiently.
Lisa bought the kettle and to this day they still use an electric jug.
However, Linda and I recently acquired an induction cooker for our kitchen and discovered that water could be heated faster on the cook top than in the electric kettle, so guess what we bought? A kettle for the cook top.
It clears some bench space and works efficiently for us - so it would appear that we have gone around one cycle of life.
One of our brothers came to visit recently and was coming to terms with the workings of an induction cook top. He wanted to know if he could use a 'real kettle' (meaning the electric one) but too late, we have entered the new cycle of life and there is no going back.
