von's dream kitchen:

if ever i have a kitchen, it will have, in addition to a 6-burner, billion BTU stove with cast iron grates and two gas ovens, 3 sinks each at least 3 feet wide and a foot or more deep. each sink to have a sinkhole fitted with either a screw-in plug or a screw-in wire mesh strainer (none of this rubbish with the holes that trap anything fibrous). there will be a disposal in one of the sinks that leads to a compost pile. perhaps. and there will be two long-necked faucets, one each on the rightmost and the leftmost sinks. on the left side of this bank of sinks there will be a slightly-recessed area with steel drainage plate upon which will rest all manner of dirty dishes. on the right side of this bank of sinks, there will be a 5 foot wide, 3-level dish drainer. i will purchase a copper mixing bowl, for soft peaks, and outlaw dish drying towels, the garlic press, and those ludicrous corkscrews with the two handles that go up and down in the manner of marilyn monroe.
