My kitchen is pretty big by the standards of what I've had in the
past, and I'm grateful for that. But I've cooked happily and with
some success in a kitchen that was more of a hallway -- one butt wide
-- can't get by if the oven door is open. And back when I was in grad
school, we had a kitchen that only had room for one person at a time.
We did okay there, too.

And I should add that've had some uninspired and uninspiring meals
that were prepared in vast kitchens.
