It goes with my "dream" of being able to "do" my 150+ year old house. I don't dream of Vikings or other expensive paraphanalia, I'd like to be able to strip the floors down to the basic pine and have a pro come in and strip the walls and re-paper them (I'm terrified to do it myself). I'm happy with my regular appliances, and don't even want a dishwasher (I call my dishwasher "dear"). An acquaintance made my day when he came to my Christmas party and told me how much he loved my kitchen! It is seriously nothing ... a real country kitchen. I love it, and it was nice to have a relative stranger say he loved it.
OH, forgot another thing!! A robot who will follow me up with all the dirty work in the kitchen, do the general cleaning around the house, and detect immediately whatever the object we are looking for.
I'd like a house with an enormous shiny kitchen, a huge modern cooker and hob, with an old style woodfired cooker as well, and a big island bench, with a huge dining table in the corner.
I'd like a family of kids to go in the kitchen too.
And a big garden with room for chickens, dogs and cats, and veggies!
