Someone has kidnapped the bases of both the electric kettles from our communal kitchen.
Not the kettles, mind. Just the bases.
So we have two kettles sitting on the kitchen counter which can be used as pitchers, if you really want an unnecessarily heavy pitcher, but that cannot heat water.
You can imagine my delight when, after 48 tea-less hours, a box with a brand new kettle, still in its wrapping, still taped shut (though the tape appeared to have been peeled up and then reattached) appeared on the counter. I immediately opened the box and took out the kettle…only to find that there was no base in the box.
I am so confused.
I had to walk downtown to Costa to get tea this morning.
What happened to fridge thieves part 1?
I think it was just called “Fridge Thieves,” and it was in January.
