Solar Ovens
Roast your seeds in a solar
oven made out of a pizza box
SOLAR COOKERS
To the tune of "Little Boxes" by Malvina Reynolds
Little boxes in the back yard
With Elmer's glue to make
them sticky-tacky
Then you line them all smoothly with aluminum
foil,
With a window in the top made of
Glass
or a turkey-roasting bag,
You can cook without gas or electricity
or oil.
And the cardboard that you cut out
To make the window
opening
You can bend up to reflect in more rays from the
sun
When the rays hit the black cooking pot
They
turn into heat energy
Slowly cooking, never burning till
your dinner is done.
Little boxes, little solar cookers
Keep your house cool
in the summertime
So your fan or air conditioner doesn't
have to work so hard
And your dinner cooks but you don't
All courtesy of solar energy
And we won't warm
the whole globe, just the boxes in the yard.
