Kitchen Issue

The kitchen, a place where food is prepared and also where you are prone to danger or maybe a sudden surge in blood pressure. Seriously, why do I have to begin every [most of] m blog posts in giving definitions? I’m turning into those PBK essay writing students unconsciously.

As I was saying, I experience this almost every single time when I’m preparing my meals. Dicing, chopping, washing, stir frying etcetera; not much joy from  the process but the outcome is certain worth sweating for.

There I was, washing a freshly bought ginger under a water tap and then here comes Mr.Squeezer barging in between me and shifted my tap water away just to fill in his rice cup. Feeling irritated, I took it back and retorted:

“Can you see I’m using? Can you wait?” [Assuming that he was retarded since he didn’t respond and decided to take the tap beside me which was also used my someone washing his vegetables]. Again, the person next to me responded:

“You cannot see people using is it?!” [In a much higher amplitude, but it did the trick.] The idiot left.

****

After all my preps, I turn on the stove only to realize that I didn’t have my lighter in my pocket. It was on the table, as I was walking towards the table stretching my arms to get MY lighter, this fellow took hold of it:

“You want to use is it?” [Claiming that it was HIS lighter and I’m an outsider wanting to borrow from him]

“Yeah, it’s my lighter what.” Dumbass left.

***

Or the ones that turn on their stove on high fire leaving the pan to burn and then suddenly add oil in and this repulsive unbearable smoke was produced that causes the entire kitchen full of people to cough non stop.

[Now if you don’t know what I’m talking about, obviously you never cooked before in your entire life… really REALLY sad.]

What’s worst, selfish person that caused everyone to suffocate just acted plain dumb and couldn’t even bother to open the darn window for ventilation and continues stir frying. Imbecile.

***

Not forgetting to mention, the sink area where people wash their vegetables and rice and do all the cleaning. Some will hog the entire sink WITHOUT actually using it but just STANDING there washing grains or some might just stand there doing absolutely NOTHING but chit chatting with his friend.

Come on even pigeons are smarter than that, you don’t need people to carry a broomstick to shoo you away. [No idea why I intended to use pigeons, I have nothing against them I swear.]

***

Finally, the ones that never bother to defrost their chicken but just leave it there in the sink for a LONG period of time and people can’t use it just because there was a &^%$*! frozen chicken lying there.

If I saw that, I would probably spit on it so that he eats chicken with phlegm. Yeah, that was only a saying.

***

Now that my chicken rice is cooked, I can end this blog post and enjoy my dinner. Oh yes, you saw that… I made chicken rice. Not the best compared to Hainan chicken rice or Singapore chicken rice but definitely chicken rice without instant chicken cubes for artificial flavouring.
