This morning I got in and was putting some shopping away. I opened the wall-mounted kitchen cupboard doors and started to chuck a few packets of wholemeal spaghetti up there. One of them dropped on the floor, I bent down to pick it up, stood up quickly, and smacked my head on the corner of a door.
While I was kneeling down on the floor, swearing and clutching spaghetti with one hand whilst holding my head with the other, I noticed the drops of blood appearing on the kitchen lino. Checked my hand, and it was a total stigmata fest. So I spent the morning with a compression bandage thing on my head, looking like a fucking lobotomy patient.
Should I be wearing my cycling helmet in the kitchen? Will cupboard doors generally give me more room if I don't wear one? Are they best for preparing fast foods, but unnecessary for everyday soul food cooking? With all the heat generated by the oven/hob/grill, is ventilation a priority?
This topic's a hot potato.
