That is strange. Maybe they've confused "recycle" with "donate."
As for using till it's DEAD, I'm in that quandry now. I want a breadmaker, a fancy one that makes normal-shaped horizontal loaves, with timers, and all the bells and whistles. Problem is, I have a breadmaker. It's now 9 years old, banged, dented, rusted, ugly as sin, smells kinda funny, and makes odd-shaped loaves. But it works. Darn well, for that matter. Part of me wants to send it to Goodwill and just buy the one I want. But I just can't bring myself to replace a perfectly good appliance that works fine! That and it looks so awful I'm not sure anyone would want it anyway, and then it really would go to waste. Maybe I have developed an emotional attachment to my breadmaker. That would be weird.

Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone!
