| Ovenmania |
 I need to revisit the oven issue because my mom swears that our oven is perfectly normal and not small. Apparently, the dimensions of our oven are standard for a 24" wall oven. However, the oven in the condo was similar to this one, which boasts a 24-inch interior width and almost 2 additional cubic feet of capacity. It's all in what you're used to, right?
I have had some requests (OK, a request) to post some photos of the house, so here is a pic of the ovens in our new home. The Yao Ming drawer is right above the microwave. At first we thought we'd want to replace the microwave because it looks so old, but it actually works really well. Underneath the microwave is the [small/normal-sized] oven. Bottom left is the kitchen island, which houses the gas cooktop.
The kitchen is by far the largest one I've ever had. The island has an extension where you can sit and eat or read the paper, and when we initially saw the house, the previous owners had three sleek black barstools there. I thought they were so fabulous that I managed to find them online and ordered them. When they arrived, it made perfect sense that they were made in Italy, because these barstools are not made to accommodate big American butts -- they are designed for slim Italians who will perch in them while they smoke and sip cappucinos. They're still fairly comfortable, but molto piccolo. |
