When I cooked my two steaks yesterday the kitchen filled with smoke. There was grease splattered all over the stovetop, on the floor and on the benchtop next to the stove.
Cooking is really messy, I understand why people don't do it much any more. One time I cooked something and I had just brought the washing in and had it on the table in the living room next to the kitchen and all my clothes ended up smelling like the food I had cooked.
What I really want is to set up an outside kitchen so you can just cook stuff and not worry about the mess.
