I see the kitchen as just an extension of the workshop w/a different set of tools and materials. Last weekend my wife and I made a fresh batch of bacon. So easy and so good, and I get to use the very dangerous meet slicer. This weekend I'm working on dirt bikes, cleaning out carburetors left all cruddy from sitting too long w/o draining the E10 fuel. Next weekend I'll get out the cookie gun (it really makes me smile to say "cookie gun") and make some spritz cookies and cheese straws to give as gifts. The cookie gun is probably fifty years old. It's a great tool.
