"We currently have a pizza oven, ice-cream maker, blender and breadmaker, all sitting unused, as well as a coffee machine, microwave and all the usual appliances. Which means we have zero counter space, so I've put my foot down. She is the main cook, but I also enjoy it I bake and love making dinner. I just don't want our kitchen crammed full of clutter any more. The final"
"The final straw came when Billie recently bought a rice cooker. She went behind my back and ordered a silly small one. We both love rice, but I usually cook it as Billie messes it up. She said she never knows how much water to add, even though I've taught her. I'm not opposed to a rice cooker I'm half Indian and lots of my family use them but it's just the size of the one Billie bought. It offends me."
Billie repeatedly buys cooking appliances and often stops using them, filling a tiny kitchen with unused items and leaving no counter space. The household currently stores a pizza oven, ice-cream maker, blender, breadmaker, coffee machine, microwave and other appliances that clutter counters. Billie bought a small rice cooker without consultation, which is impractical for hosting and offensive due to its tiny size. The partner bakes and shares cooking duties and wants future appliance purchases to be discussed and agreed jointly. Space constraints and differing views on appliance usefulness create ongoing tension, including disagreement about an air fryer.
