I have a Pareve bowl, and I mixed something that was hot and Pareve in it, but mixed it with a (clean) Milchig spoon, which I doubt has been used in the past 24 hours. (Almost sure it wasnt used in 24 hours) Is my bowl now Milchig? If yes, how do I kasher it?

The toaster oven probably was not used within 24 hours. Is there a Kashrus problem with the toaster oven? Is there a problem with the Milchig plate the hot toast was put onto?  And what is the status of the Parve knife used to spread the margarine on the bread?

  The toaster oven, the plate and the knife are all fine.   Sources: רמ״א יו״ד צה, ב.
