      Back have larger burners if you have induction, and kids, no handles accidentally sticking out either even if you don’t have kids.

          You know sometimes it looks just right enough you don’t question it, other times it’s just a general lack of proof reading. It’s the internet, we can get lazy once in a while.

              I don’t get the reference, but I’m into reading old sci-fi and open to side quests. A cursory google says good things about it, and the different narrative aspects sounds cool.

              One thing I enjoyed about the The Expanse series was how each chapter was narrated by each character, and it sounds kinda similar?

                Oh yeah, it was a recommendation. Having just picked up a stack of old SciFi pulp (Clifford Simak paperbacks this time), I’m gonna guess that our tastes align enough that you might like it. It is weird though and the character switching is a bit more intense. Not just the perspective changes, the whole writing style drastically changes and even the syntax changes to suit each character.

                  Reminds me a little of flower for agarnon. I got an anthology of of short stories to get a taste for some writers. I’ve gotten foundations by Asimov to start off from that.

                  I don’t think I’ve seen that name yet, but I’ve read through Dune, Andy weirs books, hitchhikers, and 1/3 of the EU of Star Wars, that’s 40ish of 120 or so books. I’ll read 2-3 of those than side quest to some other sci-fi for a break.

      Stir with the right, hold the pan with the left, and stop the kids from pulling hot food on their heads.

      You have a “primary” spot? Different sizes for different sized pots and pans, bro. (Induction hob.)

          Depends what I’m making. Right tool for the job. Omelette, small pan; Bolognese, huge cast iron pot, etc.

          But obviously a lot of times the amount of food that needs to be made is usually the same with the same amount of people eating in my family. So some hob spots will be more worn than others, just like any stove/hob. 👍

            i usually just scale the size of what im cooking so that it fits in my favorite pan. if i want to make an omelette, then ill use as many eggs as it takes to fill up the pan.

                Peas are best brought to a boil and then briefly simmered or turned right off to sit, in shallow water. A layer 1 pea thick on the bottom of a stock pot is perfectly acceptable, if a bit odd, and not that many peas.

                Salt the water though, and after it comes to a boil

      Those whose front burners are of the smaller variety, sadly no option to swap them without tearing down the whole kitchen.
