No harm done. If I'd had an ice-cream freezer I'd have used one. I've
spent the last twelve years or so doing a lot of my experimental and
everyday cooking in a kitchen roughly six feet by eight, including
counters, cabinets, and appliances, so I simply don't have room for a
lot of machinery, and I have a self-imposed rule about any large
implements that do only one job. Most of what I do I do with about three
knives, a balloon whip, and a couple of wooden spoons... . Recently
we've moved, though, and have a little more elbow room in the kitchen.
My next bulky addition is likely to be either a stoneware pickling crock
or a large earthenware Chinese soup pot, though.
