LOL. I already do a lot of these things, but #12 was a new one to me! Never thought about it. Thanks!

However, in both cases, they only serve to speed up the transfer of heat into the room. If you open the door, the oven or dishwasher heat exits into the room quickly, but if you do not, the same amount of heat will eventually dissipate into the room. But it will do so more slowly.

I had never heard those before, but they are great ideas. I guess my kids will think I’m nuts now. ;0)

Is your oven vented outside? Where is the heat going to go?
I agree on the dishwasher as the shot of humidity is nice in the winter time.

“13. Likewise, when you finish baking, open the oven door.”
Is there any other way to heat the kitchen in the winter months? LOL! :)
