In case you were interested in seeing photos of that dinner party and kitchen I posted

That pantry is gorgeous, isn't it? She had another one on the other side of the room

and she called it her "junk pantry." Far from it. It had butter warmers for 20 people, tagines, preserved lemons, home canned tomatoes, etc. I kept looking for a light switch and she said, "Just walk in, the lights will turn on." Sure enough. The fact that her second pantry was bigger than my dining table for 8 left me green with envy, but details like the light, and other features made me really appreciate the thoughtfulness that went into planning her space.

I didn't mention this before, but for 8 of us for dinner, she has an assistant that comes to clean the kitchen and take care of all the niggly details. After I got up from dinner, all my kitchen stuff was in a bag, packed and ready to go. By that point the kitchen was also spotless. Nice life, eh? smileys/smile.gif
