I'm not the first to suggest that new home buyers are fixated on having stainless steel appliances and granite counters in their new (or old) condos and houses. This is just a rant.
Perennially the contrarian, my first choice for my dream kitchen would not be stainless steel appliances, but a smooth white, like when I was a kid. Yes, the 70's.
I never thought I'd ever find anything about the 1970's to be nostalgic about, but after hitting 40 *cough*, I'm pining for the previously un-pine-able.
I used to rest my cheek against the smooth, cool enamel. Of course, I have no fond memories of the avocado or harvest gold.
What I want is modest. What I want is smooth white enamel, not the faux-leather finish that dominates in today's marketplace.
What I don't want is impossible-to-keep clean stainless steel, or busy, easily dated granite counters.
