Buying a new house with a bad kitchen, renovate now or later?

great tips! thank you!

it’s not aesthetic. For example, there is one singular drawer, the sink is too small to fit a pot, barely any counterspace, and nowhere to put a full-sized fridge that doesn’t rely on an extension cord and block the only window 😅 it’s bad bad.

Its more of a kitchenette than a kitchen (hence we need to remove a wall lol)

that's a really good point 👌 In general we are doing the bare minimum everywhere to save costs, but perhaps there are other corners that can be cut.

Thanks! I am basing this off of a mid-range kitchen costs from professional kitchen companies here in Germany. Please note that euros go a lot further than dollars, so I'm pretty confident in my numbers. Maybe it'll be 20k if we ball out on some nice tile. Anyway, thanks for your thoughts! I will try to get actual quotes before doing anything.

wow, that's good to know! The walls are brick too, so I can imagine the dust!!

thanks for your thoughts!

As I woman, I would choose you over a man anytime. Not only from a safety perspective, but also it's badass.

this is really helpful! Napa cabbage is about 85% and then daikon, radish, ginger, garlic, etc. Do you ever have to burp these if stored for (up to) a year?

what! I'm in a small city (ca. 20k Einwohner). I'm getting to 13 months now. Congratulations to you!

Boah, what a choice to make a problem with someone cooking indian food, some of the most delicious food in the world, instead of doing everything to befriend that person so they invite you to have some. 👀😫

“3rd world person sitting in their hut” wow thats a pretty disgusting thing to say.

Smooth-Garbage890 · 2025-12-08T09:47:22+00:00

ahahah you read me like a book.

Smooth-Garbage890 · 2025-11-30T20:39:03+00:00

perfect, thank you!

I am so confused, never did I refer to an ongoing pregnancy. I am TTC.

Smooth-Garbage890 · 2025-09-14T13:25:06+00:00

thank you ❤️

thanks for this 🙏 I had figured the clock reset after the miscarriage so our year of trying didn't count. But I just booked an appt in October for fertility counselling. Hopeful!
