SECOND COURSE - KITCHEN
(or at least the main parts i recognized)
Tumblr media
mads mikkelsen and lydia hearst for "euroman", april 2010 by kenneth willardt.
1. GE Monogram 36" Rangetop
First up, the rangetop. Unlike a cooktop, which sets into a pre-cut space in a counter or island, a rangetop overflows the sides and extends beyond the boundaries of the counter with front-facing knobs. This unit in particular is the GE Monogram 36" Rangetop (ZGU366NPSS), with an MSRP of $3400, reversible grates, and six 18,000 BTU power boil burners.
2. 30" GE Monogram Tri-Zone Counter Depth Integrated Refrigerator
Next, a dual installation of 30" GE Monogram Tri-Zone Counter-Depth Integrated Refrigerators (ZIC30GNHIl, shown with optional custom panels for seamless appearance). With an MSRP of $6999 each, these units are made more shallow, known in the industry as counter-depth, to integrate properly with standard cabinetry. Featuring fridge, freezer, and convertible middle-drawer climate zones, this unit has a capacity of 14.09 cu. ft. overall, per unit. It has two separate sealed systems for constant temperature control, and uses the first HFC-Free refrigerant, which has a lower global-warming impact.
3. 30" GE Monogram European Convection Double Wall Oven
A 30" GE Monogram European Convection Double Wall Oven (ZET2SHSS). An MSRP of $5300, with two 5.0 cu. ft. capacity oven cavities. With easy-to-clean all-glass interior door panels, both self-clean and steam-clean options, ten-pass baking elements, and two True European Convection ovens, these units boast convection bake and roast features with closed-door broiling as to not overheat a kitchen, and a built-in temperature probe for perfectly cooked roasts. It also offers a proof mode to assist dough-rising for avid bakers, convection conversion as to not overcook standard recipes, can be monitored remotely with use of a smart phone and GE's WiFi Connect app, and is programmable in both Celsius and Fahrenheit.
4. GE Monogram 240v Built In Oven with Advantium Speedcook Technology
Behold, the GE Monogram 240v Built In Oven with Advantium Speedcook Technology (ZSC2201JSS).
This bad chicken has an MSRP of $3200 and has settings for Speedcook, microwave, convection, and warming. What the hell is Speedcook? It's a combination of microwaves and convection, delivering results up to eight times faster than conventional cooking, and without the need for pre-heating. This thing can reheat, microwave, toast, brown, bake, and gently warm to your heart's content, and has the ability to remember custom recipes.
5. 30" GE Monogram Warming Drawer
Next up, the 30" GE Monogram Warming Drawer (ZW9000SJSS). With an MSRP of $1600, this drawer has a 1.9 cu. ft. capacity, and has variable temperature settings of anything from 75*F to 230*F, and humidity controls from crisp to moist. Gross. It also has a half-rack so you can store more on the inside, and has ball-bearing glides so it pulls out and closes smoothly while making that soothing whoosh noise.
6. 24" GE Monogram Undercabinet Wine Reserve
We also have the 24" GE Monogram Undercabinet Wine Reserve (ZDWR240HBS). With a cool MSRP of $2000, undercabinet wine refrigerators are notoriously tricky because of their front-facing venting needs. If you suffocate refrigerators, even small ones, (like humans) they die.
This fridge features cooling settings suitable to red or white wines, full-extension sliding racks with both horizontal and vertical storage, and has a capacity of 5.5 cu. ft, or 57 bottles.
Hannibal also, apparently, does not believe in dishwashers-panel-ready, drawer-style or otherwise.
What he does believe in? Is coffee, apparently:
7. Royal Paris Vacuum Balancing Coffee Siphon by Royal Coffee Maker
This, dear Fannibals, is a Royal Paris Vacuum Balancing Coffee Siphon, specifically noted by Bryan Fuller to be crafted by Royal Coffee Maker.
Handmade by artisans with affordable materials such as genuine Baccarat Crystal, malachite, copper, obsidian, azurite, and plating of silver and 24k gold, these start at the low, low price of approximately $15,500.
Hannibal's model is the Royal Classic finished in silver, on a Piano Black base. It is, perhaps surprisingly or unsurprisingly, the most tasteful and least ostentatious of all available models.
Tumblr media
This brings the approximate total of all Hannibal's kitchen appliances, plus or minus a few of the minor ones, to $45,000.
8. Additionally in his stolen borrowed home in Florence: La Cornue 43" CornuFé Range
In 1908, in the heart of Paris, Albert Dupuy ignited the flame of elite cuisine. It was there that Dupuy premiered the world's first convection oven. At the time, most ovens were mere flat-topped cavities that held racks suspended over a fire. The majority of people simply considered cooking to be heating food to eat. But Dupuy pondered: "What does it really mean to cook?" He developed his oven with a vaulted ceiling to usher heat around the food, rather than trapping it to burn beneath. To enable optimum precision, the oven drew upon the city gas lines that were winding their way to homes and street lamps throughout the City of Light. Dupuy christened the oven La Cornue after the French term cornue - the system for refining the gas that warmed the new creation.
Each range is made by hand and the labor is intensive. Each worker is a specialist, understanding the greater goal.
However they are not just craftsmen, but companions to each range along its journey from inception to crated final product. They are experts in steel, copper and brass, inspired by great design, working as a team to create an inspired tradition.
True excellence can only be achieved when every step in the process is in pursuit of perfection.
For over 100 years, La Cornue has continued to build upon Albert's initial convection innovation and they've expanded the designs and introduced new styles. As a result, the name La Cornue is supposed to represent a renowned spirit.
Hannibal's version runs about $10,000.

@draconisa said, ❝  i’m not staring,  i’m admiring.  ❞
Tumblr media
one would assume, considering the massive amount of build up to get to this particular moment between them that walking around the flat with nothing more than a towel around his waist would make him self conscious. instead, as he leaned against one side of the kitchen counter and waited for his coffee to brew, arthur felt nothing but comfortably at home. there was no urge to dress and flee. there was no urge to cover up and pretend nothing happened.
by the time daenerys emerges from the depths she's in one of his shirts, looking like the most elegant mess he'd ever seen in his life. his steaming mug of slightly sweetened coffee comes up to his lips. the blonde doesn't bother saying anything when her eyes linger on the towel held up by stubbornness alone.
" right, " he smiles easily. too easily. in fact, so easily it causes his heart to panic ever so slightly before the warmth sliding down his throat brings him back to the present. the mug touches down onto the counter. arthur moves just enough to reach over to the plate of buttered toast he'd made until there was permission to go digging a little deeper into her refrigerator. " i never stare either, love, " the blonde blinks.
" are you hungry? i can make you something, if you'd like. i didn't want to rummage too much and wake you up. also wasn't sure if i could rummage. the bread was staring at me and i couldn't say no. "

minestrone and sandwiches
Grant Emerson. Irey Wests.
First Meetings. Meals. Trash Possums.
1885 words.
(ao3.)
In a rare moment of silence at the JSA Brownstone, Grant Albert Emerson was alone. Tommy was subbing for a gig with his old ska band buddies, Sonia had accepted Courtney and Maxine’s invitation for a spa day, and Jesse and Rick were on a European vacation doing god knows what. 
Instead of finding someone else to bother, Grant decided to have some ‘me-time,’ whatever the definition of the term may mean. Though frankly, it had been so long since he had a moment to himself he wasn’t quite sure what ‘me-time’ would actually entail.
Perhaps it involved a workout in the basement gym accompanied only by his thoughts, or maybe a visit to the living area and a perusal of the various blu-rays on the shelf. Apparently, the old farts of the JSA had yet to hear of streaming sites, but judging by the delectable selection of delightfully terrifying early 2000s horror films Grant was in no place to complain. 
So after letting himself sleep far past noon, Grant traversed the hallways alone. As he headed to the kitchen he wondered what leftovers would be hidden in the depths of the Justice Refrigerator of America (Courtney’s words, not his). Personally, he hoped that it was Ma Hunkel’s famous minestrone. 
When he entered the kitchen, Grant was greeted by a head of red hair, but one he was familiar with. 
Sitting at the center island was a girl no older than thirteen. Her fiery locks were pulled back into a ponytail, over her green eyes was a pair of thick rimmed spectacles, and on her head was a Keystone Salamanders baseball cap. 
The little redhead looked up and met Grant’s gaze. 
Suspicious, Grant narrowed his eyes and asked — “Who the hell are you?”
“Who the hell are you?” 
“I asked you first.”
“I asked you second.” 
With a grumble, the older hero decided to cut the bullshit then and there. “I’m Grant,” he said sternly. “And you?” 
“Irey,” introduced the little one. In her hands was a rather hefty sandwich, of which she took a large bite out of before speaking with her mouth full. “What are you doing here?” 
Somehow, the sight of a middle schooler with bread crumbs flying out of her mouth caused Grant to smirk, even if she couldn’t see it. 
“I live here,” he explained, amused. 
Irey seemed none the wiser to her table manners and took another bite of her sandwich. 
Seeing as the child was more occupied with eating than socializing, Grant made his way across the kitchen. Under most circumstances a stranger in the Brownstone would lead to a group of old dudes and kids getting up in arms. However, considering that Todd had yet to boot Irey off the premises it was safe to say that the little one was considered a guest. 
Grant opened the fridge and peered inside. As to be expected, half a pot of Ma Hunkel’s famous minestrone was sitting by the bottom, situated right next to Michael and Pieter’s stash of energy drinks and kombucha. Grant pulled the pot out and portioned some out into a bowl. As he nuked it in the microwave, he glanced to the center island and got a much better look at the meal Irey was tucking into. 
On the counter was a rather large paper grocery bag sitting on its side. The contents had been taken out and placed on the marble, of which included three turkey sandwiches with arugula and tomatoes, four small cartons of chocolate milk, a bag of oatmeal raisin cookies, two apples, a few small mandarin oranges, several packets of seaweed sheets, and a bottle of cherry cola to wash it all down. 
Somehow, Grant started to think that any speedster household had a bigger meal budget than the League and the Society combined.
“That’s a lotta food there, kid,” Grant remarked, sounding impressed.  
“Us speedsters gotta eat,” Irey said casually. She quickly finished off her first sandwich, then reached over to one of the cartons of milk. She opened the top and took a large pull, then reached for her second sandwich with an air of ease.   
“Fast metabolism,” Grant remarked, crossing his arms and leaning against the counter. “Should’ve known.” 
“You ever see my Grampa Jay eat?” asked Irey between bites. “He’s like a garb-ater.” 
Grant raised an eyebrow. “Garb-ator? You mean a garburator?” 
Irey shrugged. “Same thing.” 
The microwave beeped and Grant walked over to retrieve his steaming bowl of soup. He grabbed a spoon and took a seat at the island across from Irey. Just as always, he pushed up his mask just enough to expose his mouth, then gave his meal a quick stir before taking a bite. He wasn’t sure what was the best part of Ma Hunkel’s famous minestrone — the little bits of bacon floating among the vegetables or the fact that it still tasted spectacular the very next day.
The two ate in silence for a while. Grant enjoyed his soup as Irey took in her meal, the latter clearly being more focused on stuffing her face than running her mouth. It wasn’t the first time Grant had awkwardly and quietly shared a meal with a speedster, as his old memories with the Titans could vouch. 
Bart could be chatty, but even he couldn’t speak at his usual pace while stuffing his face. 
Jesse was in the same boat, but perhaps her tendency to not engage in smalltalk during meals had less to do with being a speedster and more to do with a dislike of smalltalk in general. Knowing Jesse, she probably thought it was a waste of time. 
Despite his mild history with speedsters, Grant actually didn’t know much about the one sitting in front of him. He had heard Jay talk about the new Impulse a few days before, stating that she was as cute as a button and a fiery redhead like her father. He also stated that she was possibly one of the fastest amongst all the speedsters, but it was far too early to tell due to her age. 
Looking at her now, Grant wondered if he could add ‘loves sandwiches and seaweed sheets’ to that list of details.
What surprised Grant about Irey the most was mainly her ability to stuff an army’s worth of food into her tiny, middle schooler frame. But additionally, she had yet to show any discomfort regarding Grant’s mask. 
Young kids often questioned him about it. Even the little Heywoods — as sweet as they were — tended to lack a mouth filter in the most inconvenient of times. Nate had apologized to Grant for a week after Keith accidentally blurted out the question — “Mister, what’s wrong with your face?”
Grant knew that the younger ones had no ill will when they asked about the mask. Or at least, that’s how he wanted to see it. In his head he rationalized it as a natural extension of childhood naivety, a simple curious desire paired with no intent to harm. The fact that little Keith looked remorseful as hell after a scolding from Uncle Nate seemed to prove him right. 
Grant glanced across the table to see Irey finishing off the last bites of her sandwich. After brushing the crumbs off her hands, she reached over to her bag of cookies. She pulled out one, but instead of taking it for herself she looked to Grant. Unhesitatingly, she held it out to him.
Grant seemed surprised. Unnerved, he somehow managed to reach over and take it.
“Thanks,” he muttered, trying his best to sound like normal. 
“You’re welcome,” replied Irey as she grabbed a cookie for herself. “You looked like you needed it.”
For a second Grant blinked, then quietly decided to ignore the implications of Irey’s statement. As dour as he could be he still wanted his one day off to remain enjoyable and free of the burgeoning existential crises that constantly threatened to plague his mind. 
As he bit into the cookie, he hoped that the sweet and crumbly sensation would provide a momentary relief from all the tragedy that had cursed his twenty odd years of life. 
To distract himself further, Grant asked, “So… you joining us or what, Kid? Cause I swear, our recruits get younger and younger every year.” 
Irey seemed amused. “I would, but my Dad says no,” she answered. “I’m only allowed to be with the Titans now, and only on weekends.” 
Grant nodded, then tilted his head to the side. “So why are you here then?”
“My Mom is a veloso…” Irey started, then paused. 
“Velo… velocity… velocity-bio… uh… My Mom studies speed stuff,” she then clarified, seeming just the slightest bit embarrassed. She tried to carry on like she had never stuttered at all. “And she wants these two doctor dudes to help look at me and stuff. They wanted to give me a physicist.”  
“You mean a physical?” asked Grant, raising an eyebrow at her. 
“Oh yes, that. Mom said you guys have better medical stuff, so Grampa Jay picked me up from school and brought me here. We did all the testing things, so he’s just talking with the doctor dudes right now.” 
Grant let out a curt chuckle. There was something utterly hilarious about referring to Michael and Pieter — i.e the two most brilliant doctors in the country — as ‘Doctor Dudes.’
“Do you know Lian?” asked Lian.
The question was rather abrupt, so much so that Grant gave Irey a few confused blinks in response. “Roy’s kid?” he eventually managed to say. “Yeah, of course.” 
“I know her, too, we’re friends,” Irey explained. She placed her sandwich down. “She told me about you.” 
Grant suddenly went still. Cautiously, he narrowed his eyes at Irey once more. Exactly how much had little Lian Harper blabbed about him in the last while? 
Trying his best to ignore the handful of memories suddenly coming back to him, Grant managed to say, “Has she now?”
“She said you’re cute,” Irey claimed unhesitatingly. 
Grant felt a knot tighten in his stomach. His grip around his spoon tightened, causing the metal to compress between his fingers. 
“... she hasn’t seen me in a while,” he said through clenched teeth. 
And from there he decided to leave things be. 
Sucking in a breath, Grant stirred his soup and took in another bite, immediately changing the subject to literally anything else. 
“So… what do you do for fun, Irey?” 
Irey paused and began to think. To her she was probably thinking for hours and hours.
“Uh… sometimes me and my cousin Bart go skateboarding… sometimes me and my brother play video games,” she started, furrowing her brow to think even harder. “And yesterday I found a possum by the trash can and it chased me around the yard.”  
Grant almost spat out his soup. He stifled a laugh, holding a hand over his lips as he did his best not to choke. Eventually, he swallowed the morsel in his mouth and let out a few chuckles. 
Clearly as amused as he was, Irey let out a few giggles of her own. 
Once Grant regained himself, he gave the little one a smile, perhaps the first genuinely one he had made that week. 
“Oh, kids these days and their trash possums.”

The refrigerator is one of the most important necessities in our homes. It is an essential part of our livelihood that allows us to retain the freshness of our food items and enjoy them for a longer period.

So, let us take a look at some of the best refrigerators in India, the types and how they apply to us:
The different types of Refrigerators
The Top Mount Refrigerator: As the name suggests, this comprises the freezer on top and the refrigerator below it. The main refrigerator body comprises pull-out shelves and is very much within the budget. Here the main aspect of importance is the refrigerator space, however, it does offer a rather limited overall space. 
Side-By-Side Refrigerator: Here the entire vertical portion of the refrigerator has been divided into a freezer on one side and a refrigerator on the other side. Some of the best side by side refrigerators in India come with some great space-saving and storage ideas within. Here the capacity of both the freezer and the refrigerator is the same, hence wonderful for people who have such requirements. 
Counter-Depth Model: These appear much like a built-in type and can fit perfectly within your cabinetry. However, the storage space is much compromised in this refrigerator type. But there is no denying the fact that this refrigerator type looks good.
The Bottom Mount Type: As for this type, the freezer is located at the bottom instead of the regular top. It is of great help for people who would rather prefer the freezer at the very bottom, as there is an increasing requirement for cold-food storage and its regular access is the main concern. 
CONCLUSION

However, it is required for the user to weigh the various aspects of each type according to their needs and then make their selection. Various governing aspects like size, capacity and also family size needs to be considered to make the right decisions.

Types of Layout of a Kitchen
Whether you are remodeling or building, a kitchen layout is crucial to the success of your project. A good layout will help ensure you have adequate space for your appliances, cabinets, countertops and tables. There are several types of layouts to consider, including L-shaped, L-shape with peninsula, U-shaped, and galley.
L-shaped
Whether you are building a new home or planning a renovation, a L-shaped kitchen layout can provide the functionality and space you need. It is the most common kitchen layout. You can choose from a variety of styles and designs.
A L-shaped kitchen can be used as a formal dining space, a breakfast bar, or a casual informal dining area. It can also serve as a divider between your cooking and living areas. If you are planning to entertain guests, you may want to consider a kitchen layout designed to accommodate them.
A kitchen island can add extra counter space and seating. Adding an island to a L-shaped kitchen layout maximizes the openness of the design. You can also add bar stools to the island.
A kitchen island will also make it easier to socialize in the kitchen. You can use the island as a breakfast bar, a dining table, or as an additional work surface.
A kitchen island can also increase storage space. You can use open shelving to create more storage. You can also add trendy cookbooks or flowers to decorate the shelving. You can also set up open shelving between cabinets to create a more open look.
An L-shaped kitchen layout allows you to choose your cabinets, countertops, and appliances. It is important to choose a design that fits the space and your lifestyle.
Galley
Having a galley layout of kitchen is a good idea if you’re looking to make the most of your space. This layout makes it easy to break up work surfaces into smaller areas. You don’t have to go around the kitchen to access the oven, sink or fridge.
The classic galley kitchen layout has cabinets on each side of the counters. This means the layout is symmetrical. It also means the counters are relatively even in length.
If you have a small galley kitchen, try using lighter cabinets for a more spacious feel. You could also install a feature wall to add depth.
If you don’t have room for a feature wall, you could hang a bold piece of art on the end wall. This would tie the theme from one side to the other.
To make the galley kitchen look larger, consider installing a backsplash. This tile could extend from the counter to the ceiling. It could be a colorful tile. The backsplash will also add depth to the space.
You might also consider installing glass doors at the end of the galley kitchen. This will give the room a more contemporary look.
Adding a breakfast counter to your galley kitchen can add a lot of functionality. You can use the space to host guests or serve breakfast.
Work triangle
Creating a work triangle in your kitchen is a great way to improve efficiency. It can also make your kitchen look more spacious. Having a work triangle makes it easy for you to prepare meals faster.
A work triangle is basically a layout that keeps three main workstations close to the cook. The three major workstations include the refrigerator, sink, and stove. It is important to make sure that each one is close enough to the others so that it doesn’t become congested. The most obvious workstation is the sink. You can also put a dishwasher in this area, as well.
The kitchen work triangle concept is a time-tested design principle. It originated in the 1940s, when kitchens were smaller and appliances were not as prevalent as they are today. The concept is still relevant in modern kitchens. The ideal triangle is an L-shaped kitchen with legs that are at least four feet long.
The triangle can be divided into three main parts: a cooking area, a cleaning area, and a storage area. In a larger kitchen, you can add islands to provide additional work space. You can also add zones into the design. This way, you get to incorporate the most important kitchen activities in one convenient area.

Are Kitchen Remodeling Costs Worth it?
Remodeling your kitchen is a great way of improving the appearance and feel of your house, but it can also prove costly. It’s possible to wonder if remodeling your kitchen is worth it.
There are several factors to consider when determining whether or not remodelling your kitchen is a good investment. The first is your home’s market value. If you plan to sell your home within the next few months, you need to ensure that any remodel costs are recouped in sale price.
Another factor to consider is the cost of the remodel itself. high-end kitchen remodels can cost upwards of $50,000, so it’s essential to ensure you have the budget to cover the costs. The cost of remodeling your kitchen may not be a major concern if you don’t plan to sell your house.
Finally, you’ll want to consider how much use you’ll get out of your new kitchen. You will need to make sure your new kitchen is able to accommodate large parties or prepare large meals. You may be able to do a less extensive, but more expensive, remodel if you don’t plan on using the kitchen as much.
Here are some suggestions to help you get started if you don’t know where else to look.
You will need to decide whether to replace your cabinets or build new ones. Kitchen remodels can be expensive if you add new cabinets. You will also need to get rid of all existing cabinets if you want to replace them all.
Pick your colours carefully. You can have a dramatic effect on the appearance of your kitchen by choosing the right colours.
Decide if you want to update the flooring. If you plan to sell your house soon, you might want to leave the flooring alone. A freshly painted concrete slab gives off a “new” feeling.
Add storage space. Your kitchen’s usable area can be increased by adding shelves, cabinets, and drawers.
Lighting is essential. Recessed lights installed above the sink, stove, and refrigerator can brighten dark corners in your kitchen.
Add Appliances. Energy consumption can be reduced by replacing an old fridge with a modern model. This can increase the resale price of your house.
You must ensure you have enough outlets. Most kitchens have just one or two outlets. This means you won’t be able to plug in your microwave, blender, and other appliances.
Don’t forget about the water lines. The pipes for water are hidden behind walls and floors. Before you begin any work, check for leaks.
Eliminate clutter. You may already have a cluttered kitchen, so try to organize. You don’t need to keep it cluttered.
Get estimates from several contractors. You can compare prices from multiple contractors by comparing square footage, the material type (cabinets, vs. stones), and the number and size of doors and windows.
Financing options are available. Many homeowners finance kitchen remodels. You don’t have to pay interest while you make the payments.
Have a good idea of how long you plan to live in your house. The longer you stay there, the more you should invest in your kitchen.
Keep track. Keep track of everything that happens during the construction process. Use a notebook to record measurements, materials, and construction techniques.
Plan ahead. It is important to plan ahead. This will help you visualize the whole project.

How To
How do you select a kitchen remodelling company?
These tips can help you make the right choice when hiring a Kitchen Remodel contractor.
Ask your friends to share their experiences with different contractors. This is a great way of getting honest feedback from people who have worked with contractors. Ask them about the work quality, professionalism, cleanliness, punctuality, etc. Ask them about their experiences with contractors. If so, how did they resolve those issues?
Reach out to several companies to request estimates for your project. Prepare to give a detailed description and why you are hiring someone else. Inform them that you are seeking someone who specializes on kitchen remodels. You can also provide details about the area, including the type of material used and its size. Be sure to tell them exactly what kind of finish you want (i.e., countertops, cabinets, backsplash, flooring). You can also mention any other specific items you’d like to see done during the project. Are you looking to have new appliances installed? Do you prefer a particular type of cabinetry or style? Would you like to have a special feature such as a wine fridge or built-in oven?
Find out whether the company has insurance and worker’s compensation coverage. Check online to see if the contractor belongs to any trade associations. It’s always best to go with a company that is part of a reputable organization.
To discuss your project, schedule a meeting with the contractor. Ask them about their qualifications, experience, and methods. Ask them how they would approach your project, and what timeline they envisage.
Ask for references from past clients. Hire a contractor and don’t just rely on him. Ask for referrals. Go back through his list of references and call the people he recommends. Tell them that you want to hear about your positive experience working with this contractor.
See past customers’ reviews on sites like Yelp. Angie’s List. and Houzz. Many homeowners use these websites to leave reviews after completing projects. If there are positive reviews, you can be assured you will get a great job.
For a detailed plan of your kitchen remodel, consider hiring a designer. A professional designer will know what looks best in your kitchen. Designers will also be up-to-date on the latest trends in kitchens.

The Importance of a Commercial Fridge
Tumblr media
A commercial fridge is essential for food service businesses, restaurants, hotels and coffee shops. It keeps cooked foods fresh, protects against contamination and comes in varying sizes to fit the needs of different operations.
Investing in a good quality commercial fridge will save money and time and help your business grow. But before buying a new refrigerator, ensure it fits your space, energy efficiency, and maintenance requirements.
Size
Commercial fridges are more significant than residential units, meaning they can hold much more food and larger containers. As a result, they're perfect for a restaurant, deli or grocery store that needs a large fridge.
When determining what size refrigerator to buy, consider how much space you have available and the type of product you plan on storing. Knowing this will help you select the right appliance for your business.
Refrigerators are available in various styles, such as french doors and side-by-side models. They're also available in counter-depth, top-freezer and bottom-freezer configurations.
Reach-in refrigerators are popular for most commercial kitchens because they keep products excellent and accessible at arm's length. They come in a range of sizes, from single-door units measuring around 27" to triple-door models able to fit 87" of space.
Energy Efficiency
A commercial fridge is an essential piece of equipment in most food establishments. It not only has to be reliable and durable, but it has to work efficiently to save energy.
It is a crucial issue because commercial refrigerators and freezers have to work harder than their domestic counterparts due to the high level of use, frequent opening and closing of doors, etc. As such, the energy consumed by these appliances can be a huge factor in determining your overall electricity bill.
One way to lower your power consumption is by choosing an ENERGY STAR-certified model. The EPA runs this program and uses rigorous testing to identify energy-efficient equipment.
Convenience
Whether you're running a restaurant, convenience store or other food-supplying business, a commercial fridge is essential for maintaining and storing refrigerated foods and drinks. It ensures that the food is safe and does not get spoiled, which could ruin your reputation.
If you're considering buying a commercial fridge, make sure to choose one designed for frequent use and has doors specially built for the needs of a business. It will help the unit to adjust better to sudden changes in temperature and help to keep your products safe.
A commercial fridge can also save your business money in several ways. For example, new units are much more energy-efficient than older models, which can significantly lower your monthly utility bills. If you're looking for the best deal, choose a model certified by Energy Star. It will also guarantee that you get an appliance with a long lifespan.
Durability
Restaurants, bars, cafeterias and grocery stores rely heavily on commercial fridges to keep their food fresh. They help businesses store products and preserve quality, but even a great appliance can break down if not cared for properly.
Fortunately, a commercial fridge can last up to ten years or more with proper maintenance and cleaning. However, it's essential to understand that commercial refrigerators are often larger and run at a lower temperature than home models.
If a commercial fridge shows signs of breaking down, it's essential to act quickly and have the unit replaced before it causes damage to inventory or food. It can save money on repairs and replacement parts and time and inconvenience for employees.
The door gaskets are one of the first things to check on a commercial refrigerator. These seal the doors to the body and prevent cold air from leaking out or hot air from entering. However, if these rubber seals are dirty or faulty, they can reduce their efficiency and prevent ice dams from forming.

The Best Tips for Planning a Kitchen Remodel
Tumblr media
Kitchens continue to be the most popular area in the house to remodel. It’s a large job, both financially and in terms of scope. So, before you hire a contractor and start knocking down walls, there are a few things you should think about and plan for: budgeting, deciding what you want, and arranging how it will all fit. 
First of all, set your budget before you remodel your kitchen- 
Be realistic about the cost of the new kitchen as you plan it. Large renovation projects frequently take more time and money than anticipated, so it's a good idea to aim for a conservative budget that is less than your maximum budget to guarantee you have spare funds if your project goes over budget. A reasonable rule of thumb is to add a further 10% to 20% for unanticipated expenses. The greater your financial cushion, the better. You don't want to be scurrying for another loan in the middle of a project, or worse, end up with a half-finished kitchen due to a lack of funds. 
Before you go ahead and do some research- 
Visit kitchen showrooms and home improvement stores to determine the cost of things, and then determine what you require and what you can afford. Attending a neighborhood home tour is an excellent way to meet other homeowners while also observing their kitchen design and upgrades. 
Think about "hidden" costs- 
Remember to account for the cost of labor and materials, as well as any applicable taxes and shipping or delivery fees. These can quickly add up, so it's critical to factor them in when creating your budget. Consider whether there are any steps along the route that you would like to do yourself. Even taking on a few activities can result in big savings. 
Consider Your Needs vs Your Wants- 
Be practical and avoid purchasing unneeded goods.  
It's tempting to acquire all sorts of gadgets and sophisticated equipment, but it's preferable to stick with the tried-and-true basics.  
Keep in mind that every new appliance comes with a slightly higher utility bill.  
They also add to your upkeep duties and require time and money to maintain. 
Making a Kitchen Design- 
The kitchen, more than any other room in the house, must be practical and functional. Consider how you now utilize your kitchen to determine your priorities for the redesigned space. What works and what does not work? Consider the layout of the room carefully and decide what will work best for your family. 
Use the classic work triangle wherever possible. Arrange the sink, refrigerator, and stove (the three most often used elements) in a triangle layout. This is often regarded as the most convenient configuration because it eliminates needless processes. 
Consider how many people often operate in the kitchen at the same time. If there is more than one, you may want to include more than one workstation. Consider building an island or purchasing a wheeled cart that can be moved around the room and stored when not in use if there is adequate space. 
You can also take help from an interior designing company in Jaipur if you are from there, or from local companies in your area. 
Space Planning- 
A skilled remodeling contractor can assist you in ensuring proper safety, but it is up to you to prepare for convenience. Here are a few things to keep in mind when planning your space: 
Counters: A minimum of 36 inches of counter space is required for food preparation, with at least 24 inches on one side of the sink and 18 inches on the other. If you can squeeze in more, do so. 
Appliances: Allow enough floor space in front of appliances so that the doors can be opened while still walking in front of them. You'll need between 30 and 48 inches. Take notice of the direction and depth of swinging appliance doors, especially the refrigerator. If you intend to place your fridge close to a wall, be sure the door swings in the opposite direction, or the wall may prevent the door from fully opening. 
Walkways: Allow appropriate space for traffic flow on walkways. There should be at least 42 inches between the countertops and the island to allow people to stroll by without disturbing those working at the counters. 
You can also take help in doing all from Balaji Construction company in Jaipur or your local construction companies, and that will be helpful to you in many ways as they have great working experience with them. 
The final considerations before renovating- 
Balaji Construction Company is one of the best renovation company in Jaipur, if you can contact us or invite your contractor and/or designer into your home to discuss all of your kitchen renovation goals and needs. This will assist ensure that your space is designed in a way that will provide you and your family with convenience and ease of mobility. Remember to stick to your strategy and avoid getting caught up in the excitement or being pushed into doing things you don't want or need.

Chapter 16 Have a Little Faith
As they drove along in Callum’s car, Faith soon realized they were headed towards his father’s pub, “Did you need to stop at the pub for something?”
“Ah, about that— I actually live above the pub.”
“So the other night—“
“Would have been way too easy to just take you upstairs. I’ve lost my interest in that kind of relationship.”
“Damn, I’m not sure if I should be impressed or insulted.”
“I’m hoping you go with impressed.”
“Seriously though, I get it,” she shrugged, as they headed towards the back of the building.
Callum unlocked a door that opened into a little entryway with a coat rack, a little bench and a large potted plant. Callum sat on the bench to remove his boots and set them on a little mat next to a pair of jogging shoes. Faith slipped off her shoes hesitantly. Callum chuckled, “Come on up, ladies first,” he gestured up the enclosed staircase leading up to his flat.
The stairs opened up to a nice sized kitchen on the left hand side of the flat with living room on the right and a dining set with a live edge table broke up the space. The table was already set for two with candles set in a cast iron candelabra. A short hall off of the living room led back to the bedroom with the bathroom situated in the opposite corner behind the kitchen, “It’s not much but it’s comfortable.”
The flat had clearly been renovated within the last five years. The kitchen was all new and done in white and shades of gray with a dark blue backsplash and a cluster of small blue pendant lights hung above a kitchen island. The countertops and the island were topped with shimmering black Quartz with flecks of white. Three black barstools with blue vinyl seats sat on one side of the island.
The living room was painted white with the exception of the exposed brick on the longest wall where his couch was situated between two windows. A TV and stereo system sat opposite of the couch. A monochromatic mural of a knight's helmet and stylized filigree in dark blue surrounded the entertainment area. There were a number of framed pictures on the walls, Callum’s watercolors no doubt. What really caught Faith’s attention were the three shelves in the corner, filled with trophies and ribbons.
“It’s really nice, did you do all the work in here?”
“Angus, my dad and my brother pitched in too. Mum helped design the place, especially the kitchen. She had a heavy hand in decorating too; I was a bit out of my depth on that one. Lucky she knows what I like. I keep telling her she’s got a hidden talent. My best friend did that,” he said pointing to the mural.
“I love it. It looks like a bad-ass tattoo.”
“That’s what she does. Bad-ass ink.”
“It’s really great. All of it. Maybe you should have your mom take a look at Buffy’s place.”
“It’s an idea. I’m going to hit the shower, there’s beer under the counter there and I put a few in the fridge if you’d rather have it cold. Make yourself at home. I won’t be long,” he pulled her in for a quick kiss, “definitely won’t be long.”
Callum quickly made his way through the kitchen and closed the bathroom door behind him Faith decide to take his advice and grab the beer from the refrigerator. She was getting more used to drinking it warm but she still preferred it cold. She took her beer over to the shelves of trophies that had caught her eye and realised that they were for multiple martial arts fighting styles. While most of the framed pictures on the walls were indeed various watercolors, the larger of these frames were in fact old MMA fight posters; featuring Callum.
“What else are you keeping quiet,” she murmured to herself.
Faith went back to the table and rummaged in her bag to pull out a lighter before lighting the candles. She ran her hand along the irregular edge of the table; as she did so the bathroom door opened. Faith looked up just in time to see Callum as he made his way to his bedroom.
“Nice ink” she said, catching a glimpse of the intricate Celtic knotwork tree on his right shoulder and bicep.
“No peeking,” he grinned.
“Damn, Boy, you’re a tease.”
“If you like that one, wait until you see the rest,” He called from the bedroom.
“Oh now, that’s not fair.”
“All in due time, Darlin’. Are you trying to tell me that little armband of yours is your one and only?”
Faith smirked, “I didn’t say that.”
Callum came out of the bedroom pulling a clean T-shirt down over his jeans, “So you are holding out on me, Lass.”
“Guess you’ll have to wait and see. I’ll play your game. I guarantee I have more scars than tattoos.”
“Those can be damn sexy too.”
“What about you? You got more than what’s peeking out from under your sleeves there?”
“No cheating.”
“We gonna eat or what?” she teased.
“Absolutely.”
Callum pulled the plates from the table and filled them while Faith grabbed a couple of beers for each of them. As they sat down Callum cleared his throat, “Let’s eat.”
“So how come you never said anything about your martial arts training?”
Callum shrugged, “Dunno, was a time I had girls fallin’ all over me just because I was competing. Guess I just didn’t want to take that route, especially when I found out what you teach. It’s common ground and all but still. I didn’t want you to think I was just boasting or some rot. And then with the slayer thing…”
“I’d annihilate you.”
“See that’s another thing, I’m way too competitive. Not sure if I could handle going toe-to-toe with you, Lass.”
“Afraid I’ll hurt your pride?”
He chuckled, “When you say ‘super strength’, exactly what are we talking about here?”
“I can throw a guy your size through a wall… kind of a favorite pastime; but I can’t lift my Volkswagen if that’s what you’re asking. I bet Buffy and I could do it together if we really tried.”
“Are you messing with me?”
“Maybe, maybe not,” she grinned, “Honestly I don’t really know. Not like I go around lifting stuff or weighing stuff before I lift it. Don’t know how much an I-beam weighs but I can lift one of those pretty easily.”
Callum set his fork down, “Really? Yeah I’m not taking you on. Don’t get me wrong, that’s wicked and all but I’m used to being in the ring. I want a fight where I got at least a 50/50 chance of winning,” he grinned, “It is pretty cool though.”
“It has its perks I guess, sometimes it can be a little hard to get past though. You know, just be a person?”
“And here I am asking questions.”
“Nah, I get it. You’re curious.”
“But sometimes it’s nice to forget about it for a bit too I bet?”
“There’s always alcohol,” she said, tilting her beer bottle towards him.
“I got plenty of that, and I can always get more.”
“Yeah, how is that, living over the pub?”
Callum laughed, “First thing I did when I took this place was rip up the floorboards and add sound proofing, it’s pretty effective.”
“Nice.”
“How’s the roast?”
“It’s really good, your crock-pot does good work.”
He chuckled, “Here I thought it was the beer and rosemary I put in.”
“Thought there was something different about it. So what did you think about Buffy’s little project?”
“Funny, you calling it little. There’s a lot of work to do but a good chunk of it is cosmetic. First she’s going to want to have the windows and that leaking fireplace fixed. But that’s… look I know you don’t really want to talk about your not-cousin’s future love nest.”
“Just making conversation. What do you want to talk about?”
“I don’t know, maybe the elephant in the room?”
“Sex?”
Callum laughed, “Ok… Yes, we are gathered here today with the intention to join these two bodies in unlawful carnal knowledge.”
“Never had anyone put it quite like that before…” she laughed.
“I sort of meant the other elephant in the room. We’re trying to get to know each other here, we’ve both been on the wrong side of the law. Why don’t we start there?”
Faith put her fork down and rocked back in her chair a little, “Sure you want to go there?”
“Don’t have to, but I sort of think I’d like to know who’s not sleeping in my bed. I can start if you’d like.”
“Might not want me in your bed once you find out.”
Callum reached for her hand, “I promise I won’t judge.”
“Careful what you promise, you might have to break it.”
“I’ll go first. I’d been in and out of trouble for years scrapping and what not. Was a real hot head when I was a teen sort of cooled off a bit after I started competing but not much. Anyway, I was with this Lass, havin’ a laugh for a while. One night after a match, this bloke comes up to me ranting about shagging his girl. Said some nasty bits about her too which set me off. I nearly beat the guy to death. Would have done if Angus and a buddy of mine hadn’t pulled me off of him. Put him in a coma for about a week and he was in the hospital for a good long time. Did some time for that and been keeping out of trouble ever since.”
Faith poked at the last few bites of food on her plate and nodded, “Pretty standard stuff. Hope you’re ready to hear this, my story isn’t so standard,” she finished her beer, “Mind if I have another?”
“Sure, Lass,” he said, taking their empty bottles and bringing over fresh ones. Callum sat down across from her and waited.
Faith took a deep breath, “Not long after I got my powers I met Buff. One night we were out patrolling, it was a heavy night. We were kicking ass left and right. I was really into it and all of a sudden she’s trying to call me off this vamp… I staked him…” she took a sip of her beer, “Wasn’t a vamp. Buffy spotted the human and I didn’t… she tried to stop me and I didn’t.”
“With your job—“
“That’s not all. I got mixed up with a seriously shady politician. He was evil as hell but he treated me… nice… kinda like a father I guess. I worked for him, he protected me… did some pretty awful stuff in there. Made B my enemy in a really big way when I almost killed her boyfriend. I lost that fight, ended up in a coma for a good long while myself. Can’t blame her looking back on it now. But I sure didn’t see it that way when I first woke up. Did some more awful stuff, mostly to Buffy and friends and the new boyfriend. Went to LA, did some more awful stuff to the people trying to help me. Including Buffy’s ex, who incidentally is the same guy who’s now like my big-brother mentor-whatever. He just wouldn’t give up on me,” she took another drink of beer, “So, I ended up turning myself in to the police to keep him safe. I owe him everything. Took a nice long break from society after that. He kept visiting and calling the whole time I was in there. Didn’t get out until oh, about a year and a half almost two years ago when he needed some serious help. Been batting for the good guys ever since. Helped stop an apocalypse and now I’m just trying to be a better person. Teach these girls how to be better than me...”
“Well now… when you put it like that…” Callum took a long pull of his beer. He didn’t say a word as he got up and made his way to the kitchen.
“Callum, please… I—“
“Could use something a little stronger than beer I’d wager, yeah?” He asked as he pulled out a bottle of whiskey and a couple of glasses.
“Cal—“
He held up a hand for silence as he poured them each a glass, “I know you like the stuff from the Abbey, but I really think you’ll appreciate this one,” he said casually.
“Wait, what? Aren’t you going to like kick me out or something?”
“Why would I do that?”
“I thought you’d be freaked out.”
“Not if you’re truly on the path to redemption. I told you I wasn’t going to judge. Besides, if all these people who were on the receiving end of all this can forgive you and give you another chance, why shouldn’t I give you a chance too?” Faith walked closer to him as he handed her one of the glasses.
“Thanks,” she said weakly.
“Look, I asked, and I should have known better… I mean I know your life is complicated and the way you’ve talked about your past… I should have realized it was more—“
“Screwed up?”
“Well, yeah, alright… but, Faith…”
Faith couldn’t look at him, she downed her drink and set the empty glass down, “Look, if you just want to call this whole thing off, I—“
Callum closed the short distance between them, quickly silencing her with a kiss. He moved one strong hand to her back and the other cradled the back of her head, holding her firmly. He kissed her like he needed her the way a drowning man needs oxygen.
Taken by surprise, Faith stiffened for a brief moment before melting into the kiss. She moved a hand up under his shirt feeling his well defined muscles. Callum grabbed her roughly pulling her up onto him. She responded in kind by wrapping her legs around him as he made his way over to the dining room table. He set her down on the edge of the table on the opposite side of their abandoned dinner. “God, help me Faith, I can’t care about any of that. I think I love you…” he gasped breathlessly, “Please stay.”
Faith felt the sting of tears in her eyes, “Why?”
“Don’t be daft girl, I just said—“
Faith started to push him away, “No I mean why— how can… how can you love me? I’m—”
Callum brought a hand up to her cheek, “You’re amazing, Faith.”
“No I’m not. Didn’t you hear what I said? After everything I’ve done— I don’t—“
“I’ve lost control, Love, I know what that’s like. What happened after… Look I don’t get all of it. I never will, I know that.”
“I glossed over so much, you don’t even know… you don’t know the real me, the person I was—
“Isn’t the person in front of me. When we learn from our mistakes we don’t become them. All you can do is move forward and keep trying to do better. That’s what I see in you, Faith. That’s what I saw in you when we first met. Even before you told me everything—“
“But I didn’t.”
“Faith—“ he took her hand in his, “You are who you are now because you want to be. You’re beautiful, soddingfunny, and the toughest person I’ve ever bloody met. I see what you’re doing with your life now, the kind of work you’re choosing to do and I think that’s incredible. I want to be with you; if you’ll let me.”
“Because you love me?”
“I—“
“Or was that just a play to get—“
“Hang on there. I meant what I said, I’m mad for ya, Lass… I just know I’m off my nut saying it when I did… going too fast, I know it… I’m rushing in like a fool and I’m not expecting you—“
Faith threw herself at him and Callum stumbled back hitting the wall near the hallway leading to the bedroom. “Don’t be stupid,” She kissed him roughly before pulling him around and down the hall.
“Damn, you really are strong.”
“I'm not even trying.”
“Good thing I can take a hit.”
“We’ll see about that.”
He grinned as he pulled her to him again, kissing her, “I take it you don’t have any complaints about going fast.”
“As long as you don’t mind being in uncharted waters.”
“I think I’ll manage,” he tugged at her dress and she allowed him to pull it off over her head before pushing him against the wall next to the bedroom door. They resumed the kiss, “I knew you had to have more than one,” he murmured, glancing down at a partially obscured underbust tattoo.
“You know the rules, I show you mine, you show me yours,” Faith pulled at his shirt and he yanked it off revealing a Celtic knotwork bear on the left side of his chest and wrapping around his shoulder, in addition to the Celtic knotwork tree of life on his right shoulder and bicep.
“Damn son, that’s some impressive ink,” she said as she ran her fingers over the intricate lines of the bear on his chest. She began to trail kisses along his neck and shoulder until she spotted another tattoo on his back, “Holy f—“ she turned him around roughly, “that’s intense.” Callum’s entire back was covered with one very large tattoo.
“You like it?”
“The artwork is incredible, but what is it exactly? Is this your Family Crest or a Coat of Arms or something?”
Callum turned his head to try to see her better, “Both actually, Ross Clan Crest on the top there with the family motto ‘Spem Successus Alit’.”
“Which means?” She asked as she traced the stylized letters stretching across the back of his broad muscular shoulders.
Callum grinned in appreciation as he answered, “It means ‘Success Nourishes Hope’,” he continued distractedly as she traced the tattoo, “So, eh, there’s the motto, and the Ross Crest combined with the Ross Coat of Arms.”
Faith continued to run her hand along the well defined muscles of his back as well as the artwork covering it. The Coat of Arms showed a knight’s helmet atop a large shield with three stylised lions on their hind legs. The artwork on the stylistic foliage at the bottom and Celtic knotwork at the top, surrounding the large tattoo blended it seamlessly into the tattoos on his arms and shoulders, “Damn, you’re making me want to get some new ink.”
Callum turned around grinning, “Maybe I can introduce you to the Lass that did these for me.”
“Your bestie that did the mural?”
“One in the same.”
“Maybe…” she murmured as she let her hands roam down and started unbuttoning his pants. Callum closed his eyes and sighed as she trailed her tongue down his chest. Faith paused again as she found another tatoo running along his left side towards the bottom of his rib cage.
She ran her fingers along the words as she read the writing, “‘Be happy while you’re living, for you’re a long time dead’, sounds like good advice.”
“Old saying, always liked it. That’s my newest,” he wove his fingers in her hair and pulled her back up. He kissed her neck roughly feeling the uneven skin under his tongue, “What’s this?” He asked, tracing the scar on her neck.
“Souvenir from the time I helped out that friend I was telling you about. When I got out of prison,” she panted as she moved her hands down to his pants again.
“Hang on, are you saying that Angel guy bit you?”
She backed up holding him at arm’s length, “He wasn’t himself, how do you know about Angel? I never said his name.”
“Spike. We had a chat about the whole soulful vampire thing.”
“Seriously? So he explained everything?”
“I doubt it, but it was enough to be getting on with,” he said, kissing her again.
“God damn you are so hot right now!”, she said as she resumed pulling down his pants and boxers, “Holy-“
Callum stepped out of his clothes as he backed the two of them into the bedroom. He pulled her closer to him pressing against her. Faith gasped, feeling him against her. She suddenly felt overdressed in her lace bra and panties and made a move to remove them. Realizing what she needed, Callum unfastened her bra with one hand and waited for her to shrug it off.
He eyed her with hunger in his eyes, “You’re perfect, Faith,” he took a breast in one hand rolling the tip between his fingers as he studied the tattoo there low on her sternum, a dagger and a black rose, “Now that’s sexy.”
In response Faith reached down, taking him in her hand. Callum made a gruff sensual sound as he tugged at the tiny panties still obscuring her body, “I want you Faith. All of you.”
“Say ‘Please’,” she added as she slipped them down and strode over to the bed. Revealing one last tattoo, a tiny broken-heart, located high on her right butt cheek. She crawled onto the bed slowly.
“Please?”
Faith turned, standing on her knees she beckoned him forward. Callum joined her on the bed kneeling as she was, he pressed himself close to her again as he held her. Faith tilted her head for a kiss and trailed a hand down to hold him firmly. Callum pushed her hand away gently, before cupping a hand to her. Feeling her with the tips of his fingers for the first time.
Faith moaned into his mouth as he gently played, slowly picking up pace. Faith broke the kiss, “I want you, Callum.”
“And how do you want me, Lass?” He whispered with a grin.
Faith laid back pulling him down with her. He gazed at her tenderly as he moved with her. Faith adjusted herself, inviting him in. Callum took his time working his way in slowly until he felt her body tense. He stopped and kissed her gently, “Are you alright, Love?”
“I’m, I’m fine, it's just for a second…” She trailed off and took a deep breath, “The last time someone looked at me like that, I ehh, wasn’t exactly myself. I kinda freaked out.”
“Your ex? That Robin bloke?”
“No, it’s a long story.”
“Listen, if you’re not ready… if you want to stop… I’ve got plenty of cold water. We can just watch a movie or something if this is going too fast for you.”
Faith looked up at his sincere face. He really meant it and he wasn’t angry. She shook her head, “Not a chance, I finally got you right where I want you,” she ran her hand over his naked form pressed into her and grabbed his ass. Then she tilted her head, “well almost, I do like to be on top,” she grinned up at him.
“I love a woman who knows what she wants,” he made a move to readjust but Faith stopped him.
“Not now. Why only ever get wild-cherry when there are loads of other flavors to try?” she pulled him back down for a kiss.
“Whatever the lady wants. Sure this isn’t too vanilla for you?” he grinned.
“We’ll and in some wild-cherry later,” she smirked as she wrapped a leg around him pulling him into her. She arched her back as she felt him respond.
“Always been more of a rocky-road kind of gent myself,” he added with a grin as he began to thrust.
Faith tilted her hips and dug her nails into his shoulders spurring him on, “Love me some rocky-road.”
It was nearly two hours later when Faith and Callum kissed once more before Faith rolled onto the bed next to him. They were both still struggling to catch their breath. The moment she separated from him, she felt like something essential was missing.
Callum cupped her cheek in his hand and placed his thumb on her bottom lip, “What was that?” He panted.
Faith shook her head as she caught her breath. “Buffy tried to warn me,” tears stung at the back of her eyes but that was as far as they got.
“Bout what?” He asked as he tried to wrap his arm around her.
“She, ah… she has a theory about that thing that happens when we kiss,” Faith struggled to get her emotions in check, “I didn’t want to believe it, but after that, I don’t know what else to think.”
Callum turned onto his side so he could see her better. He pulled her closer to hold her in his arms, “What’s this theory, Love?”
Faith stared into his strikingly blue eyes, “She thinks it has to do with us being soulmates…. or something.” She said it quickly and looked away as though she was afraid she sounded crazy.
Instead, he just smiled, “Spike seems to be a believer. Is that your way of saying you love me too?”
“I— I’ve never been… in love.”
“Until now?”
“I kinda thought it might’a been the real thing with my ex, but I know it wasn’t. That didn’t feel anything like this.”
Callum ran his hand along her arm and down her side, “This being?”
“In case you haven’t noticed, I’m not good with feelings. Like, I seriously suck at the whole thing. It’s something I’m sort of working on. All I really know is that I feel like I’ve been hit with a ton of bricks and you make me wish we’d done this thing a long time ago. And I don’t just mean the sex. Even though; holy shit man. That was out of the freaking park.”
Callum grinned, “Glad to know it’s not one sided.”
“Don’t be an ass,” she paused for a moment, she ran her fingers along the Celtic-knot bear head tattooed on his chest, “Is it alright if I don’t know right now?”
He squeezed her gently, “Course, it is. Although if you ask me, I think you know exactly what it is we have here. You’re just having a hard time putting a name on it. Especially if we’re working with the soulmate angle,” he kissed her and they both felt the mild tingle that always occurred when they kissed, “Ya needn’t be afraid Lass.”
