That's why I'm holding back. TINY, tiny kitchen. Barely enough room
for two people to squeeze past each other, very little counter space
and storage is at a premium. Believe it or not, this kitchen is
bigger than the last one they had - so they aren't complaining. No
room for a microwave or even a *toaster* in their kitchen! Of course,
it goes w/o saying... no dishwasher either.
