Today I will explain my point of view about the queen of rooms, aka the kitchen.
There's an italian female singer, Irene Grandi, that sings "In my castle I am the queen and my kingdom is the kitchen" (translated by me, the original song is "La cucina" from the album "Irene Grandi", 1994).
Well, she has splendidly summed up my thoughts!
My perfect kitchen must be built around me (quite small since I'm only 1,63 tall :P). It must be separated from the dining room by a short wall (about 1,30 m, 4,26 feet), on which there's a panel of concrete-glass tiles (blue of green) up to the ceiling: I really love concrete-glass because it makes a room bright and stained. I need a medium work surface because I have to knead the dough for pizza, spaghetti and gnocchi (do you know what a "gnocco" is?). But in my kitchen there will be no place for a dishwasher, because I don't like it. Yes, it's useful when there are a lot of dishes to wash (cooking contests with friends or the celebrated italian Christmas' Eve dinner) but it's also not really cheap.
I really love kitchen furniture by Snaidero (an italian furniture factory), but they are expensive. Very expensive. And when I'll finally have my sweet home, I won't have enough money to buy Snaidero's furniture. ^^'''
But, for the record, my favourite model is the one called Ola.
Now I have to work (for me it's never sunday!): next time I'll give you the not so secret recipe for pizza dough!

A shared dream
Well, here I am.
It was not easy for me to make this blog and not because it has needed a lot of effort in programming.
It was difficult because I have recognized that I am not enough, that my powers aren't sufficiently to fulfil my dream.
Yes, I've got a dream.
Like thousands of young people in this tiny yet big World, every day I wake up early, I go to work, I work until there's no more light outside, I return home, I eat and I return to work.
Every day I only thought that all my efforts would take me to my home sweet home.
But the finish line is very very far away, because I have to fight with many expenses, taxes, loans to my needy old parents and the economic crisis.
I have a temporary employment as an analyst programmer and I can make an housing loan only for a small amount of money. When I talk about my dream of having an house, many people tell me "Hey, if you want a home, just get married!". Oh yes, I'm a single woman, I believe in love and I don't want to find a man because I want to steal his house -___-
Therefore, I need the help of the Web.
Damn, I feel like a beggar asking for your kindness, but what is impossible for me is nothing for the Web!
I'll start to write here about my dream, but also about advices in house keeping, bricolage, do-it-yourself, gardening and common and uncommon knowledge about houses. Thus because this blog must cover the relationship between a person and his/her house.
I have added adSense advertising and a small button for free donations with Paypal (even 1 $ is enough). It will be my duty to inform you about every possible development in this situation.
Help me reaching my dream. My home sweet home.
