[Sca-cooks] Kitchenware, was: Re:Too many books

I'm beginning to think we have a kitchenware museum.  We inherited most
of the kitchen items and cookbooks when Selene's Pelican, Mistress
Catriona nicChlurain, passed away.  We inherited a bunch of entertaining
and serving pieces, and a bunch of wonderful Portugese linens, when her
Aunt Evelyn passed away.  Then there's Selene's attraction to "bright,
shiny objects" and new kitchen gadgets.

In addition to the five six-foot tall bookshleves of just the cookbooks,
four of which are in the kitchen, and the bookshelf full of spices and
teas next to the fridge, we have three four-shelf racks of stuff (big
stock pots, pans, racks, trays, etc.) and four extra plastic bins all
out in the garage.

Now Æduin wants us to get a Hobart mixer.  [sigh]  As much as I like
-having- all this stuff, putting it away is a real challenge.  I mean,
all the cake-decorating supplies we bought for the classes we took
earlier this year are in yet another large plastic tub in the kitchen.

We need more room!
