Inside my student flat: the kitchen (part 2) At any rate, the kitchen is so filthy, and it annoys me so much. On the floor there are flocks of dust, breadcrumbs, snippets of food, oil and dirty water stains. Nobody has cleaned the stove, but I cannot wipe the cookers now, otherwise the fire is not going to light I will not be able to cook. The sink is full of dishes, and the draining board even more, but this crockery is clean. The cutlery is also clean, but it was me who bought it. For the kitchen, I bought a cutting board, a rolling pin [to make tortelli], forks, a funnel, two bottles [one for tap water and one for oil], some small jars for spices, many glasses, several teaspoons, a bowl, a mug and I do not know what else. One of my flatmates, Lauretta Sperzimoniolej, bought the pot holders, a scale and a rag. Oh, right. Now that I think of it, I have bought a rag too. The ones we already had were all dirt-encrusted. The horror! Yesterday, instead, I made gnocchi. They are not difficult to make. Making the dough, however, requires you to have potatoes. Potatoes must be chopped, boiled and peeled, and then amalgamated with flour, an egg and a pinch of salt. In the fridge, vegetables are missing. I always have legumes because, being a vegetarian, I'm always risking to suffer from nutrient deficiencies, in particular due to the absence of proteins and iron in a diet strictly based on vegetables. I also have carrots, but I should also buy leek and courgettes, in the case I decide to prepare a finer dish. I only have Portobello mushrooms. I would like Caesar's mushrooms, penny buns, green brittlegills, parasol mushrooms and honey fungi. For breakfast I have chocolate cookies, cereals, semi-skimmed and whole milk, and nothing else. No meat at all. The others do eat meat, like pork ribs, chicken brisket, salmon and so on.
