Lost: Toasters in Salem, Oregon, United States

Last Tuesday at about 7:30 p.m., I realized my two-slice toaster was gone from the kitchen counter in my apartment on Court Street, Salem, near the Oregon State Capitol. It’s a brushed stainless machine with a black dial and a dented corner from a dropped bagel. I remember rinsing a mug there and turning on the kettle, then blinking at the empty counter, wondering if I left it on the bus or someone helped themselves. I’m hoping a neighbor or passerby picked it up by mistake and kept it safe until I reclaim it.
