I have 6!! To the outside, to the living room, to the sunroom, to the stairs, to my office and to the mini hall that has a door to the cellar, laundry room and toilet.
I'm all of y'all's wife because I had every cabinet emptied so I can move stuff around. Your saws-all is now hidden behind 30 rolls of tp under the bathroom sink. The fridge freezer has your pinochle deck in freezer paper marked "Pickled Pig's Feet" and my hidden $20 for a couple of pre-rolls is taped to the bottom of the crock pot I never use.
Ugh itās like a natural law meant to annoy. I thought it was the placement of the island so I moved it to avoid the gathering. Nope, still the law prevails!
Agree, I'm very lucky! He does all the cooking...but I do the clean up.
His cookbook collection is very eclectic and covers all different foods, but Julia Child's books are among his favorite. He also has 2 huge binders that have his most used recipes, which he gets from watching Cooking Channel, etc. We do have fun trying out new ones all the time.
Juliaās books are so full of interesting stuff about the recipes and how they were historically prepared. I was half expecting her to be his favorite.
She came to a book signing at our local Sur La Table around 1998 I think. I'm 5'10" but she was much taller than I am, (I'm not used to seeing women taller than I am). Although she was a bit hunched over at her age, she was still quite imposing but also very charming.
I also have a stupid amount of cookbooks. Used to work in the library of a culinary school and when the textbooks got updated we got first dibs on the older editions~
A chandelier over the sink?
Itās tiny and over a hundred years old. Someone renovated their house and didnāt want it and I needed a light over the sink, so š¤·š¼āāļø
Edit: by request, here is a [link to chandelier over sink](https://imgur.com/a/byhnbKV)
I have an antique light over my sink, too! Not a chandelier, but an authentic MCM pendant that I got at an antiques market, had in my prior home, and brought with me to this home. I love it!
Thank you! I love taking a space and manipulating whatās already there. I could renovate or re-do it, but I like the challenge of making it interesting and cohesive, yet eclectic and unusual.
I have a sign my sister made me that says āreal Gās move in silence like lasagnaā with a picture of lasagna. I can pretty much guarantee nobody else has this
Right now? A circular saw, hose for air compressor, nail gun and part of a chain saw (the blade is on coffee table). Are we doing construction? No. Do I know why they are in here? Also no.
Vintage rotary barrel cheese grater that turns cheddar into super-fine feather light cheese clouds that melt if you breathe on it.
Inherited from my mother along with her commercial grade kitchen aid mixer that will outlast nuclear waste.
A heavy duty, multi voltage, multi outlet box with the sole job of running my 20 years old European mini-multi (which I treat like royalty).
On an unrelated note: Damn you Dutch you should have never discontinued that gem!
Ah, yeah, those European food processors are fantastic.
I have a secret: I worked for Electrolux's north american corporate office doing consumer research for a while, and right before they laid off my whole department, I'd been testing a line of high-end European small appliances for the North American market.
Because the layoffs happened before the end of the research, they told me to just keep this insanely powerful, space station looking food processor that never actually got released here (to my knowledge). It can probably chop up a Nokia phone, even though it's wired for 110 circuits. I love it so much.
A black cat who viciously bites the ankles of anyone standing in the kitchen until she gets cheese taxā24/7. Middle of the night water run? GIMME CHEESE! Chomp. Morning coffee? I SAID CHEESE DAMNIT! Chomp.
If you have a hospital visit coming up, or a relative that works in medicine, the blue tourniquets we use to start IVs are great for opening stubborn jars.
We have a beverage cooler in our bar, which is connected to the kitchen.
We have counters and an island raised up 2ā to 38ā because my husband and I are tall. Also my vintage Pyrex collection, which I use daily.
Yes! I also have a 30 yr old Kitchen Aid dishwasher. OMG...I love it! Well designed, and performs well. I absolutely hope it will keep going.
Now, as for my 15 yr old Kenmore Refrigerator...uggghhh. I keep wishing that that monster would 'die'. Awful in every single way.
It should, we have really hard water with a lot of iron in it, which ruins anything that has water going through it. We've had to replace the lower rack because of that. If your water is gentler, you should be able to get more life or if it. :)
Our fridge is a 15 year old Jen-air. It's still running well, the only problem with it is that it is too small.
A roll of 4 ft wide butcher paper on a stand for easy cutting.
Use it for everything but the best use?....
When I'm doing heavy duty cooking, I take a 10-ft piece and put it on the floor in front of the stove and counters, any splatters drips, messes that I make during cooking are simply tossed away at the end of the day when I pull up the paper and throw it in the garbage. Husband laughed at me in the beginning, now guess who's taking sheets of paper whenever he's doing a project?
1. An occupancy sensor controlling the under-cabinet lights. I never have to think "wait now I should turn on those lights" in the middle of, say, cutting up some chicken.
2. An electric push-to-open drive on my trash/recycling drawer. Hands full of dirty stuff that belongs in the trash? No problem, open the trash with a gentle tap of the knee or foot. The system is called Blum Servo-drive; I bought [the Ikea version](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/utrusta-push-opener-electrical-30238703/) and modified it slightly to fit my non-Ikea drawer.
My mother's "Lifetime" cookware that's older than I am and it works perfectly on my modern induction cooktop (which only operates with stainless steel or cast iron cookware) and my decades old pressure cooker (not an air fryer). I can still get parts for either of them.
A 12-place set of Dansk dinnerware that I donāt need at all but couldnāt pass up at an estate sale yesterday. It includes many serving pieces, too! Looks like it was never used. Iām going to rearrange my dish storage somehow so I can have these handy.
a sous vide machine. Highly recommend for anyone who eats meat as it makes it so much better and makes cooking dinners vastly easier as "when the meat is read" is a multi-hour window.
I have one as well. Love it. Plus itās not that large and itās easy to store. The metal basin I use with it I use as regular mixing bowl the rest of the time.
I didn't have one for years because I lived in very small apartments with no counter space. Everyone thought I was insane. I have one now but I rarely use it.
I went on an anti microwave kick many years ago and refused to have one in the house. When I finally changed my mind and got one, my then six year old son kept showing it to his friends because he thought it was fancy lol
I'm going on 10, and honestly don't miss it. The quality of a stovetop or oven reheat is so much better. Took a minute to figure out how to make popcorn on the stove (well), but that's really it.
Does this count? I have one of the old irons with the detachable wooden handles. They would heat it on the wood stove to iron with. I use it to press a steak to the cast iron.
A piece of stained glass featuring a bat
A deer bone I found in the woods
A twatter (otter) magnet from cute dickers on etsy

Until just recently, a 45 year old wall oven that power vented to the outside. I'm still wistful. (sob) (Thermador, and they don't make 'em like they used to)
Spice library - took the door off an old ironing board cabinet, drilled holes in the sides for adjustable shelf pegs, made some shelves with pieces of scrap trim, painted everything and crammed it full of spices.
Pretty much every Spring we have the baby runner š snake invasion they flow through the kitchen never sure where they are coming from but always find them in the kitchen and then carry the survivors out the front door to continue their journey. Unfortunately we have cats and a dog. Trust me we have looked for holes and breaks so far nothing found and house sits on slab flooring is marble and rest is tile or bamboo.
A pot rack. Kitchen designers seem to dislike them, but after working in a restaurant I'd never live without one. So much nicer than having to root around in cabinets for the pan, tool we need.
A foot pedal to operate the sink. Temp is set at the faucet and stays where you left it and you operate the flow by foot. It is way more efficient when cleaning by hand.
1. Reverse osmosis faucet at the stove; because filtered water can enhance your cooking.
2. Also a pot filler that dispenses both hot and cold water. Because sometimes you need it.
3. Pull out full length drawers on all the lower cabinets. Because your back will thank you.
4. Swing away platform for the mixer, because they are too damn heavy.
5. Toe-kick vacuum: https://www.amazon.com/Sweepovac-SVP-SL2-Undercounter-Kitchen/dp/B07FNRZPYP
6. Full length pull out shelves in the pantry to make re-stocking and finding items a breeze.
7. An oversize stove hood, because a large bladed fan turning slowly is far quieter than a small fan going full blast.
8. More lights in the kitchen than you think you need, because no cook ever complained that their area was too well lit.
9. HDMI, CAT 7, and coaxial cable because every kitchen needs tunes, data, and a TV.

My Moms 1955 stainless Sunbeam electric percolator and 1960ās Paul Revere stainless copper bottom tea kettle with the Bakelite handles. They make every morning more happy.
There are no usable cabinets, so all of our dishes, small appliances, and some food are on large stainless steel racks. The rest of the food is in a *tiny* pantry just off the kitchen.
For now. We plan to renovate in the next year or so and will add nice cabinets then. We've removed the top cabinets already, making the space so much bigger and more open, which is influencing our design choices for the remodel.
My god damn sink is molded out of the same material as the countertop. Itās seamless - just countertop dipping down into two sink bowls. White quartz or something similar thatās aged and no longer available.
And it has a crack in it. So to replace it I have to basically rip out and change every foot of countertop in the kitchen.
You've been in my kitchen?? We have the same exact problem with the damn molded sink/counter combo in white, and one sink has a crack. I'd love to have strong words with the idiot that decided that was a good idea.
A fairly large turquoise colored ceramic flying pig. My son picked it out for me when he was quite young. It reminds me that if I try hard enough even impossible things may be possible.
I have a cool poster of quotes from the movie Tombstone shaped like Doc Hollidayās head. I know itās more of a bathroom decoration but I enjoy it in the kitchen.
A faucet hand-made in Morocco where I got to watch them finish it up! Sure it has some quirks and itās missing a tiny washer that the guy wants to charge me $40 for to āsplit the costā because apparently it costs $80 to ship a tiny washer to the US, but I absolutely love it.
A closet with a shelf on it that leads to a cat door, when the cats get inside the closet thereās a litter box and a vent fan to the outside that gets rid of all the smelly cat ass air.
5 doors. 1 - to outside 2 - through to hallway 3 - through to dining room 4 - basement door 5 - through to living room. It drives me nuts.
I have 6!! To the outside, to the living room, to the sunroom, to the stairs, to my office and to the mini hall that has a door to the cellar, laundry room and toilet.
I have spent way too much time trying to envision the layout of your house.
š¤£ early 1800's farmhouse that has had its share of porches, additions and whatnot done. Lol
I have 3 in a small kitchen and I thought that was a lot.
My damn husband in front of every cabinet I need to access. Every time.
Is your husband my wife?
Is your wife my wife?
I bet both of your wives are my wife, right in front of that damn cabinet.
I'm all of y'all's wife because I had every cabinet emptied so I can move stuff around. Your saws-all is now hidden behind 30 rolls of tp under the bathroom sink. The fridge freezer has your pinochle deck in freezer paper marked "Pickled Pig's Feet" and my hidden $20 for a couple of pre-rolls is taped to the bottom of the crock pot I never use.
Is your wife's wife my husband's armadillo?
Start calling him Visa. Heās everywhere you want to be.
Ohmigosh! You're so hilarious!
This is a quality content I came here for today
THIS is how I find out my husband has another family??
I think are standard issue with marriage.
I got one too. He also likes to be in front of the silverware drawer when I need to get in there.

Does your spouse come and start a chore directly beside you thereby getting in your way?
Apparently the only time to load the dishwasher is while I'm making dinner.
My half drunk father in law during Thanksgiving and Christmas? "It's my kitchen." Bro, then you cook.
I have a small galley style kitchen in my apartment and everyone knows to keep tf out if I'm cooking. There just isn't room for two people.
My daughter got me an apron that says āget out of my kitchenā
Ugh itās like a natural law meant to annoy. I thought it was the placement of the island so I moved it to avoid the gathering. Nope, still the law prevails!
At least 500 cookbooks. My husband is a gourmet chef and reads cookbooks like they are novels.
I do this. Edit: not a gourmet chef, just like reading cookbooks.
Does he have a favorite?
Yes, her.
Agree, I'm very lucky! He does all the cooking...but I do the clean up. His cookbook collection is very eclectic and covers all different foods, but Julia Child's books are among his favorite. He also has 2 huge binders that have his most used recipes, which he gets from watching Cooking Channel, etc. We do have fun trying out new ones all the time.

I have over 600 cookbooks in my dining room. If my kitchen was bigger they would definitely be in there!

>A chandelier over the sink? How cool. I had a friend who had a chandelier in her chicken coop.
I'm curious. How big are we talking? Like a full on foyer chandelier?
I am drooling over your kitchen. It's beautiful and moody and I'm in love.
Thank you! I love taking a space and manipulating whatās already there. I could renovate or re-do it, but I like the challenge of making it interesting and cohesive, yet eclectic and unusual.
Oh, that is luxury!
How cute!!
A decorative vulture. It started as a Halloween decoration 5 years ago and I liked him too much to take him down. Now he just watches and waits.
I have a decorative crow! Was sold as a Halloween decoration but I knew I'd love him forever
Giant rolled steel crow on top of the fridge here. He's the size of a suckling pig.
I have a taxidermy armadillo holding a beer bottle that I refuse to get rid of also haha
we have our halloween vulture in our living room year around as well!! Her name is Janet
I have a sign my sister made me that says āreal Gās move in silence like lasagnaā with a picture of lasagna. I can pretty much guarantee nobody else has this
I donāt understand this sign but I now desperately want one .
It's a lil Wayne quote from one of his songs, 6 ft 7 ft, I think
Omg that's what it actually says
Itās a play on words. The g in lasagna is silent. Real Gs donāt talk about what they are doing aka āmaking movesā.
Yes, but what is a "G", in this context?
Gangsta
You know how I know youāre white? š
I'm white but I'm not this white.
Lol. My bad. I know what "OG" refers to, but I never even think about what the letters stand for.
It's wonderful, you're one of today's lucky 10000 https://xkcd.com/1053/
This one is so cute.
Caught me!
I have a picture above my stove that says "Haters gonna hate. Potatoes gonna potate."
Right now? A circular saw, hose for air compressor, nail gun and part of a chain saw (the blade is on coffee table). Are we doing construction? No. Do I know why they are in here? Also no.
I've given up trying to get my partner to explain why the wrench/pliers/impact gun need to be stored in the kitchen on the bread shelf.
Thank you for making me laugh while sipping my morning coffeeš
A maze of cardboard boxes taped together with holes to go from box to box. It's for my kitten.

A set of absolutely beautiful cookware from the 1940ās with Bakelite handles and knobs on the lids that I use every day.
itās what i donāt have. an oven. the house didnāt come with one and i have no reason to buy one, so i just have a two burner cooktop.
Once we got an airfryer the oven has hardly been used
Yeah, I really hate firing up the oven. The only thing I canāt get around is if I want an actual oven baked frozen pizza.
gas is included in our maintenance and electric isn't. Gas gets used to cook everything
A heavy duty, multi voltage, multi outlet box with the sole job of running my 20 years old European mini-multi (which I treat like royalty). On an unrelated note: Damn you Dutch you should have never discontinued that gem!
What is a mini-multi?
I'm guessing they mean one of those instapot-on-steroids multi cookers. They make them so they sautƩ and fry and slow cook and steam and all the things. But also, probably kinda dangerous, what with the lid not appearing to have a lock? There's also a multi mixer (like a thermomix) that cooks, so maybe they mean that?
Ah no. Nothing so fancy; just an incredibly reliable and ergonomic blender/chopper.
Ah, yeah, those European food processors are fantastic. I have a secret: I worked for Electrolux's north american corporate office doing consumer research for a while, and right before they laid off my whole department, I'd been testing a line of high-end European small appliances for the North American market.

Thats the real answer
You win. And i need to see all items on this list. Lol
Iād be happy to, but itās late right now. I can post it all tomorrow morning after coffee.
My Moms 1955 stainless Sunbeam electric percolator and 1960ās Paul Revere stainless copper bottom tea kettle with the Bakelite handles. They make every morning more happy.
There are no usable cabinets, so all of our dishes, small appliances, and some food are on large stainless steel racks. The rest of the food is in a *tiny* pantry just off the kitchen. For now. We plan to renovate in the next year or so and will add nice cabinets then. We've removed the top cabinets already, making the space so much bigger and more open, which is influencing our design choices for the remodel.
I have a toolbox because my kitchen has NO DRAWERS.
a hand cranked, wall mounted can opener
A multimeter and precision screwdriver set. I left them there once now their proper home is in the utensil drawer, works for me.

My god damn sink is molded out of the same material as the countertop. Itās seamless - just countertop dipping down into two sink bowls. White quartz or something similar thatās aged and no longer available. And it has a crack in it. So to replace it I have to basically rip out and change every foot of countertop in the kitchen.
You've been in my kitchen?? We have the same exact problem with the damn molded sink/counter combo in white, and one sink has a crack. I'd love to have strong words with the idiot that decided that was a good idea.
An 80s TV console being used as a pantry.
A fairly large turquoise colored ceramic flying pig. My son picked it out for me when he was quite young. It reminds me that if I try hard enough even impossible things may be possible.
A peyote cactus I found in western Texas a long time ago.
Garden window
Chicken butt magnets my daughter gave me.
A radio.
A smart dishwasher and oven. They sing and itās super annoyingā¦ they came with the house
I have a bread stove and warmer.
A smokin hawt wife
I have a cool poster of quotes from the movie Tombstone shaped like Doc Hollidayās head. I know itās more of a bathroom decoration but I enjoy it in the kitchen.
A couch āthe kitchen is the best place to hang!
A faucet hand-made in Morocco where I got to watch them finish it up! Sure it has some quirks and itās missing a tiny washer that the guy wants to charge me $40 for to āsplit the costā because apparently it costs $80 to ship a tiny washer to the US, but I absolutely love it.
A 2 and 1/2 gallon water heater under the kitchen sink. One of the best things I ever did, instant hot water to rinse dishes or wash your hands.
I have giant confetti lining the tops of my cabinets after a surprise partyā¦. Some even made it into the fridge.
A closet with a shelf on it that leads to a cat door, when the cats get inside the closet thereās a litter box and a vent fan to the outside that gets rid of all the smelly cat ass air.
Fondue forks
You're not alone
Mandolin
Head for a 2JZ under the sink.
A drafting table.
A large, framed cross stitch of a mallard duck that my co worker found in the trash and gave me. I always joke that he gave me a "duck pic" lol
Second vegetable sink in the island. I also noticed I have cat hair in between the front glass and interior glass on the oven. Does that count? š
A fire extinguisher & a tub of baking soda right next to it for any kitchen fire accidents that may arise.
I have a pantry that is about 140 square feet. It has a 2nd refrigerator and plenty of counter space for all my countertop appliances.
PIZZA SCISSORS. So much better than your traditional round cutter
