We can take turns washing dishes if you really want to suffer. The sink, a pile of dishes, day after day. Monotony. The dripping faucet. Expensive Plumber. Handyman. Get the wrench out yourself. Germs. Dishsoap. Look on the bright side, you have a kitchen. Is it strylish, gaudy, outdated? Indoor plumbing is a modern convenience. The options are seemingly endless. What to cook and who to cook for? Are there knives worth sharpening?
Lets remodel and tear the whole thing out every 10 years. Or do it according to the dream plans the first time around. Change is always possible with a black oven mitt. Culinary techniques are an essential art. Can you or I afford a private chef or do we eat a bowl of cereal for dinner? I know I'm currently out shopping for a small microwave oven to reheat my cold black coffee when I am on a writing tangent.
I'm content with simplicity in the kitchen, the work triangle not lost in Bermuda. I prefer things modern but with wood accents so the the design doesn't resemble a laboratory. Functional and comfortable but not too comfortable to hotel California. I want to leave and visit other rooms too. Perhaps visit the farmer's market and eat something without pesticide residue. Organic, GMO, corporate vs small farrming practices. Do you want to sharpen the knives on the whetstone or should I?
Robots in the kitchen are a distant dream. Are they the ultimate goal of artificial intelligence? Will they gain tastebuds? How far advanced will they need to be to snake out a clogged trap and not get the stinking mess all over every surface. Bleach. Our ancestors cooked around a fire or just ate everything raw. Hunted and gathered. I've hunted in videogames and gathered art. Practiced and explored the new environments thrown out by the terraformers.
Does it feel like a home worth living in?
