Small Houses and High Humidity
I can’t tell you how much I absolutely love cooking! When I was a child, I cooked alongside my mother.
There were seven kids in the family and six of them were boys, so there always had to be plenty of food at each meal.
I remember spending hours in the kitchen each day preparing for meals and baking delicious desserts. I have never really stopped cooking since I was a girl. When my husband and I were first married, it was just him and me, and I cooked like there was an army coming over for dinner. We ended up having five children of our own, so there was always someone to cook for. Now that my kids are grown, I spend most of my days cooking for elderly people in our church as well as an orphanage in our town. The only trouble I have now a days is the humidity that cooking creates in my house. Because it’s just my husband and me, we decided to move into a small, cozy home. It really works great for us in every way except for when I’m cooking. It doesn’t seem to matter whether I’m steaming something on the stove or baking something in the oven, the house always gets very warm and humid. To try and solve this problem, my husband bought a dehumidifier and runs it 24/7 in the kitchen. I have noticed a slight difference, but nothing significant. My husband says he thinks if he buys one more it will do the trick. I hope he’s right because I’ve about had it with the humidity.
