I have absolutely no idea what the code here is these days. The house we
live in now must be about 20 years old, so I think that six electrical
outlets in the kitchen were probably OK back then...

Gawd, I remember a tiny apartment I lived in when I first started
working and 'ventured out of the nest' - there were exactly two
electrical outlets in that kitchen (and the fridge was permanently
plugged into one of them). That left me the other one for everything
else. Mind you, the kitchen was *really* small - if you tried to fit
more than one person in there at a time, you had a problem <grin>
