The other day I spent a lot of time in my kitchen, making my brother's Legendary Clam Chowder for dinner and some homemade bread to go with it. This would have been better done last week, when it was cool and rainy, but I didn't get the recipe until the weekend. 
I've got a small kitchen, and it was getting pretty crowded in that 10X10 room with me chopping potatoes, celery and onions, tending the soup pot and the bread, and kids wandering in and out looking for snacks and drinks. But that worked out--better than the soup did.
Something went very wrong when I made that Legendary Clam Chowder. I followed all the directions just as they were given to me--and these were very specific directions. But the creamy soup never turned creamy. It was delicious, but thin.
COUPON TIME
When things don't quite go as planned in the kitchen, I start thinking about how great it would be if my kitchen were three times the size, with five times the counter space (and a door to keep people out when I don't want interruptions.) These deals are great for anyone with designs on improving their kitchen (or their soup).
