New Kitchen; Older Women

I sat in a friends kitchen recently. The kitchen is brand new, ultra modern with granite and marble and stainless steel appliances. Beautiful, but for one thing, it is in a 1920's era home. It reminds me of something, a reluctantly aging woman. Here's how...

The same way you can tell the kitchen is brand new compared to the rest of the house, guess what? we can tell when your forehead has just had it's most recent botox injection, it just doesn't go with the rest of the space/face. The same way we can tell that the stainless steel appliances don't go with a a 1920's home, we can tell your new perky boobs don't go with your tell -tale wrinkling hands.

Now, don't get me wrong. I am a huge believer in personal upkeep and maintenance. Even on occasion, and as necessary, perhaps a complete makeover. However, keep it classic. I am sick and tired of women dressing the same as their daughters, it looks ridiculous. I am sick and tired of all mothers trying to be MILF's (Mom I'd Like to Fuck). Why on god's earth would you want your children's friends to want to fuck you?

Again, it's ok to be beautiful, it's ok to look young. But, it is not ok to compete with your daughters and it's not ok to try turn your son's friends on. It is wrong. Just like a kitchen built in 2009 for an ultra modern home, doesn't quite feel or look right in that classic 1920s home.

I would like the kitchen and the women to make a return to classic, not old and certainly not brand new. Just fitting, and dare I say, age appropriate....

  1. Well, my kitchen is mid 1980s with a mismatched bunch of second hand appliances. Half the cabinet doors are hanging crooked from kids swinging on them. When my husband tiled the floor he didn't "finish" under the icebox. Yucky yellow colored formica counter top and weird sunset wallpaper behind the stove. Yep . . . reminds me of me. lol
