Peacock & RV oven tiles

Hey everyone, hope ya'll are having a good day!
Thought I'd share our neighborhood peacock. He used to be our neighborhood peacock till someone penned him in somewhere. I can still hear him from time to time, but at least he's now in a safe environment. Used to be funny to see him fly up into the trees here & perch himself. He had NO fear of the dogs - yikes! He actually got in the dog yard once & the dogs didn't know what to make of that. I was very surprised that they didn't get him! These are dogs whose hereditary goes back on arab nomads that used them for hunting, catching game such as gazelle & rabbit. So a peacock would be zero challenge for them, yet, I guess he called their bluff. Thankfully, he came to no harm back then. He must have had a lucky charm in his pocket ;-)  He'd also sit on the branches in a tree that was over a temporary dog run I'd use from time to time. I used to put Carlos (chi mix) & Wrinkles (sharpei mix) in that dog run when they needed a good romp. The peacock loved that, he'd run over to them to visit them. Drove them nuts though!

Here he is checking Carlos out. Carlos says "HUH? He's bigger than I am, but I'm a mighty little dog! But I can't figure out if this thing is friend or foe? "

I also have video of him in the computer of him serenading the...um..riding lawn mower...

the 17 year old cat one day thought he could take him. He stalked up to him, looked at his size & changed his mind. We knew the cat was in no danger, nor the bird. We pretty much knew that Tony, the cat would only get so close before he changed his mind. Now that, I wished I had a video of!

OK, so now onto the RV's oven & the use of unglazed
tiles. The purpose of using the unglazed tiles is to distribute the heat in the oven so it doesn't burn the bottom of your buns (however, really? You should not stick your buns in the oven...ohhh, yes, the bready kind, then yes. Put those in the oven) (also, don't put your head in there either, they are gas ovens...just thought you'd might need to know that-- And yes Erik, if you wife says not to do that, listen to her! )

OK, sorry, got carried away there...sooo, get yourself 4 tiles of the 6x6 kind, again, unglazed. You can get them at the big hardware stores, such as Lowes or HomeDepot. I'm not totally sure, but I think the reason you used unglazed is because the glazed crack & break. Simply place the tiles on the oven tray thing & that's all you need to do. Bake away! The brownies I've made turned out good & baked better than my house oven ever baked them. Same for casseroles. I cheat & use the toaster oven for smaller stuff though. Saves on propane. Here are some pictures of how it looks.

OK, so how does the oven get this dusty when the door is always closed?? I obviously have not used it in quite some time.

Unglazed tile, almost 6x6 size.

Tiles in semi-clean oven. OK, now I have to go clean the darn thing so new dust can grow in there!

Although I fulltime in my RV, I also do most of my cooking in my friends house since I'm currently living in or is that on, their driveway. I cook all of the meals in the house for all of us. So when I do get the chance to go off on my own & do my own cooking for myself, it's a treat to do so for me!

PS, when I bought my tiles, the guy at the store told me he buys the 12x12 sized unglazed tiles to use for pizza stones. Does anyone know if it's ok to do that? Are there any health risks with using a unglazed floor tile for a pizza stone?

As always, be kind to your pets (tell your neighborhood birds the same thing as well), clean up after them on your travels & respect your neighbor.
