My former residence was a quaint 1890's bungalow (actually more of a cottage) with exactly 730 square feet.... and no dishwasher....
I can totally relate to the photo of the lovely young lady, except I usually din't have the charming smile on my face when I was doing dishes...but I had a similiar apron :)
P.S. You also couldn't run anything else when the clothes washer was on spin cycle or you'd pop the circuit breaker... (yes I DID have a clothes washer and dryer:)
But the kitchen was almost identical to this one... the small refrigerator and the one bank of cupboards was just opposite the sink, and there was just room in the kitchen for a tiny dinette set set. No dining room.
I often teased my landlady as to exactly WHERE did she put her Christmas tree..
But it was a cool pad for a college student..and I couldn't beat the cheap rent. Sara

O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you and for those who do not, especially the enemies of the Church and those recommended to you.

Sell crazy someplace else, we're all stocked up here.
Show us your face and we shall be saved. "Each soul is the object of My special love. That is why I am so grateful to those who are resourceful and bringing back sinners to Me. Keep this in mind then. I gave My life for them in the most atrocious torture, for these poor beloved ones. A humble repentance, and they are already on My heart. So speak gently to them. Speak with tenderness. A brusque remark could drive them farther away." - He and I
