SR Ortho Shroud - Apprentice Chef Vignette

"Master Chef"

[Cafeteria – Judging Venue]

Master Chef ― Ortho Version ～Let’s Make Loco Moco 1～

―A short while before cooking begins

Ortho: ―Energy inspection complete. All functions, including the cooking and processing units, are operating normally.

Ortho: Everything activates without a hitch, great. I tried to make my exterior look similar to my brother's outfit when he took the class, does it look weird at all?

Azul: It looks fantastic on you, Ortho-san. However, I never expected to see you take an interest in cooking… I'm a little taken aback.

Ortho: It's only recently piqued my interest. Sometimes I hear my classmates swapping kitchen horror stories, you see.

Ortho: When someone said, "cooking is way too high level for newbies," it suddenly made me want to try to win against it… Which resulted in this gear being developed.

Azul: I see. And if you are to do a trial run of that gear here, the Master Chef course would be the best opportunity to do so.

Ortho: Exactly! I knew you'd get it, Azul-san.

Ortho: Not only can this gear cook food, but it's built with many other functions to manage proper nutrition or count calories and the like.

Ortho: I plan on getting the expert chef to check out my functions and test out what all would be useful for cooking!

Azul: I can see you're raring to go. Then, I'll wish us both luck.

Ortho: Yeah!

[Kitchen]

Ghost Chef: We'll have you make the "Loco Moco" dish for us today, Ortho-kun.

Ghost Chef: First, we'll have to prep the onions that'll be mixed into the hamburger meat. Do you know how to mince?

Ortho: Okay, I got this!

Ortho: ―Begining cooking procedures. Activating the Cooking Gear's Food Slicer Unit.

[whirrr… fsshhh…!]

Ghost Chef: H-HUUUUUUUUUUH!? HE TRANSFORMED!!?

Ortho: First, I need to adjust the shape so it will be easier to prepare. I need to swing vertically over the onion and… slice it in half!

Ortho: Great, looks like my knife is sharp enough! Umm, since this is for mixing in with hamburger meat…

Ortho: ―Executing command: "Target ingredient: Onion / Processing Method: Mince / Configuration: 3mm Squares"

Ghost Chef: W-Wow… The onion was finely chopped up in no time flat…!

Ortho: …Whew, I've finished with the onion. Will these be sufficient?

Ghost Chef: Y-Yeah, it's cut expertly, but… What exactly is that round blade that came out of your glove…?

Ortho: I took an industrial-grade cutter and downsized it so it could be used in cooking.

Ortho: It releases water as it cuts. This removes the necessity to clean both the blade and the ingredient.

Ghost Chef: You've sure come up with something interesting. But this is just too far removed from traditional cooking methods… Hmm.

Ortho: Different tools shouldn't cause any deviation from the recipe, though… Or should I have used a knife?

Ghost Chef: Well, I guess for your case, you have to cook like that… So I'll make an exception this time.

Ortho: Yay～! Okay then, I'm ready for the next part of the class!

Ortho: ―Activating Heat Sensor Camera. Calculating the temperature of the stir-fried onions… 38.2°C. Current temperature is 41°C lower than last measurement.

Ortho: According to my database, the best temperature range to continue cooking at after letting the dish simmer down is between 38～44°C. Chef, can we continue with the next step?

Ghost Chef: Sure, that's fine. So, next, take the ground meat, onions, and spices to form your hamburgers.

Ortho: Understood! ―Executing Command: Deploy Hand-Coating Gloves.

Ghost Chef: Woah! And now suddenly there are gloves attached to your hands. Is this another one of your technological applications?

Ortho: I'm using something similar to shrink wrap for this. It'd be pretty tough to do maintenance if my joints got dirtied.

Ghost Chef: Ah, that I can understand. It's just like how it's troublesome to have to wash everything that climbed up inside of an eggbeater.

Ortho: I thought as much. In the future, I'd like to equip some functions that would handle this effectively, but… This time, I want to try to knead it by hand

Ghost Chef: And why is that?

Ortho: It sounds like when my brother took this course, he didn't like this specific task.

Ortho: So I thought it'd be good to know the source of his stress, so I could factor that into the eventual kneading function…

[squish…]

Ortho: Hmm, maybe he didn't like how it felt when he touched it? Probably means if I can automate this task, everything'll be solved!

Ghost Chef: Sounds like you've figured out your answer, Ortho-kun.

Ghost Chef: By the way, your brother is Idia-kun, right? Has he changed at all since taking the course?

Ortho: Hmm, I don't think anything changed. He still doesn't really care about food at all…

Ortho: …Oh yeah! Maybe I can use this Cooking Gear to help improve his eating habits.

Ghost Chef: Eh!? You made all these functions without actually knowing what you'd use it for in the first place?

Ortho: Ehehe, so actually… I just made this because I wanted to "win at cooking!" So I didn't really have a particular use for it in mind.

Ghost Chef: Well, I guess that's a good enough reason to start. Also, even if it is an afterthought, I'm glad that you have a goal to strive for now.

Ortho: Yeah. Alright… Now I have to start improving this gear so I can make food that my brother'll want to eat!

[Kitchen]

Master Chef ― Ortho Version ～Let’s Make Loco Moco 2～

Ghost Chef: While we wait for the hamburger to cook, you can prepare the toppings. We'll garnish with cabbage and mini tomatoes for this dish.

Ghost Chef: The cabbage needs to be shredded, so… Are you able to adjust your cutting size in 0.1mm increments?

Ortho: By design, I should be able to. I would like to test it for myself, so could you tell me the specific size you're looking for?

Ghost Chef: Then, if you can, slice at 1.6mm.

Ortho: Got it!

Ortho: ―Executing command: "Target ingredient: Cabbage / Processing Method: Slice / Thickness Configuration: 1.6mm"

Ghost Chef: Woooah, very good! It was surprising when I first saw all this, but now it's really nice to see how quick and accurately you can cut.

Ortho: Simple tasks like these are a machine's strong point, after all! …Okay, I'm done! I wonder how the hamburger is coming along?

Ortho: ―Activating Heat Sensor Camera. Frying pan is holding steady at 16°C. Hamburger internal temperature: 34.5°C.

Ghost Chef: That's a pretty handy function, too. You don't need to take the lid off the frying pan to check how it's cooking, so there's no drop in temperature.

Ghost Chef: …Ah, oops. I let myself get a little too distracted watching your really neat functions.

Ghost Chef: Normally, it would take more time to prepare the toppings, but you're moving along smoothly.

Ortho: Ah! Then, while we wait for the hamburger to cook, can you explain to me more about the toppings?

Ortho: Cause toppings are kind of like power-ups from a video game, right? You don't really need them but it's better to have them.

Ortho: That's why I bet if I could know which toppings are the most filling, I could make my cooking even more efficient.

Ghost Chef: Hmm, that's a difficult question. It can vary depending on what you have on hand, and what you feel like using.

Ghost Chef: For example, I wanted to make sure there was nutritional balance, so this dish uses vegetables as a topping.

Ortho: If we were to remove the vegetables from this recipe… The vitamin intake would be reduced by 75%. It really would lose that nutritional balance.

Ghost Chef: In the past, I would serve it as a salad on the side, but there were so many kids who wouldn't even touch it, because they didn't want veggies.

Ortho: I get it, you revised the process fundamentally to help resolve your problem. I think that's a very reasonable method.

Ghost Chef: Haha, thank you. Yes, I'm glad I changed it up like this.

Ortho: Changes, hm… If I want to be able to add that as a possible function to the Cooking Gear, I'll have to gather a lot more data.

Ortho: If I can learn to swap out ingredients, it might help in dealing with my brother's bad eating habits.

Ortho: The more I learn about cooking, the more I can see all sorts of possible challenges, just like in a video game.

Ortho: ―And finally, I set the egg on top… Done! It's made to look like the dish I saw as the top hit in an image search.

Ghost Chef: Nice, you've plated it so beautifully and deliciously. I guess it's time for you to take it to the judging venue, then.

Ortho: Okay! I can't wait to see how the judge will react～

[Cafeteria – Judging Venue]

Leona: Ughh… What a pain. Why do I need to be a judge for this Master Chef thing…?

Ortho: Sorry to keep you waiting! Oh, I see you were the one to order this dish, then.

Ortho: Here you go, this is the Loco Moco you requested! Please, enjoy!

Ortho: I want to use your assessment of the dish to help improve my Cooking Gear, so please be as candid as possible.

Leona: …Hey. Why're there vegetables in this loco moco? There wasn't any last time I ordered it.

Ortho: I heard this was a change made to help people eat their veggies. Great, right?

Leona: …Tch, way to do something completely unnecessary.

[bite, chew, chew, chew…]

Ortho: I followed the recipe exactly as it was written, so there shouldn't be any issues with the flavor… What do you think?

Leona: The hamburger and the gravy sauce taste fine. But because of all the veggies you threw in there, it shouldn't even get a single point.

Ortho: Ehhh, why!? I made sure to follow the recipe and throw in the right amount, size, and cooking time for all the ingredients!

Leona: Why should I care? All that matters is the judge's opinion, yeah? The recipe means nothin' if it don't suit my taste.

Ortho: …So without considering any of the general judging criteria, this dish "doesn't taste good" to you?

Leona: Basically. But hey, maybe you coulda gotten high marks if you'd just left the veg out like it's always been made.

Ortho: By adding the vegetables, it gave the dish a better nutritional balance. But Leona-san would have preferred no vegetables…

Leona: Geez, can't believe you'd just ruin a good meal like that. Since the judging's over, I'm outta here.

Ortho: Ah, he left… I can't really understand how someone could say a dish that satisfies nutritional needs "doesn't taste good."

Ghost Chef: Leona-kun must really hate vegetables, if he couldn't get past even this small addition.

Ortho: Ah, I should have asked why he hates vegetables to help me with figuring out how to change up recipes!

Ghost Chef: Ortho-kun… Are you actually happy with that result?

Ortho: Yes! The more data I can gather on any issues, the better I can improve my Cooking Gear!

Ghost Chef: Well, I guess I'm glad you're not sad after hearing that, but… Why does that make you that excited?

Ortho: Leona-san was already unhappy with the dish even before tasting it. That means he had already decided it wouldn't taste good just from looking at it.

Ortho: The challenge rating just shot up, now that I have to keep an eye on visual aesthetics, taste and nutrition… Of course that gets me super pumped up!

Ortho: I might be a long way away from being able to tackle my brother's bad eating habits, but… I'll definitely do my best to make my Cooking Gear even better!

Do you have any food tips for someone with bad texture sensitivities? The texture I hate Most is anything fibrous, which is almost all vegetables, and makes me feel and seem like a fuckin 8 year old. The best thing I've found so far is removing the central stem from spinach, "deveining" it, but that takes Forever and doesn't add much verity

I do! Because I fucking *loathe* celery strings!

So for one thing, if you find stuff that has textures that irritate you it's perfectly fine to avoid those things. If the stem from spinach bothers you are there good alternatives that serve the same purpose? Is the texture of kale or chard less problematic? If there are good alternatives that serve the same purpose, use those!

For another - look at some options on prep and purchasing. Does baby spinach bother you the same way that regular spinach does? Does baby spinach at least mean chopping off less of the stem because it's softer and less stringy? That might be a good option! But also check and see if there are different methods of prepping the particular vegetable. I started liking asparagus a lot more when I learned to snap the stem at its natural breaking point instead of trimming to an arbitrary length because that gets you a lot less fiber from the plant!

And finally - Destroy The Basic Structure Of The Offending Texture. If eating raw whole spinach is super difficult for you, don't do that. Cook it until the fibers break down (steaming and boiling do this pretty well) or chop it up so tiny that it isn't noticeable (this is the only way I will eat uncooked celery) or Stick That Motherfucker In a Blender (I put spinach in my smoothies and will often use an immersion blender to smooth out textures in soups). A mandolin slicer is a good way to get extremely thin-sliced veggies if cutting things up very fine is difficult for you.

You may also find that you have a better time eating frozen or canned vegetables than you do eating fresh vegetables. That's fine! If you're limited to canned vegetables make sure to watch the sodium in the veggies, but frozen and canned vegetables are still vegetables and they're still good for you.

I want to fuel your quest for brown cheese a little. Did you know we get special Christmas varieties in Norway?

The dark one is a very dark, almost burnt caramel with a smooth finish and hints of sourness. The lighter one is sweeter and has cardamom added to it. Also smooth, but drier. Both go extremely well with toasted raisin buns, but they're also good with butter on sourdough and other toothy breads. Add apple slices if you want contrast and crunch.

[photo id: Two brown cheeses in a plastic container, dark Bestemorost to the left, wrapped in blue, Julebrunost to the right, wrapped in red. A slice has been cut from the cheese to the left, with a Norwegian cheese slicer tool.]

Ah man, I can't even get the blue wrapper cheese and you're getting seasonal variants! Also thank you very much for doing a photo ID. :D

There must be a cheese shop in Chicago that either stocks or would order gjetost or brunost or bestermorost (best name) or Julebrunost -- which, that's "Yule Brunost" yes? Like my figgy pudding Spam that I turned into a christmas ornament last year. I just need to find them. I was in Whole Foods on Saturday and looked in the cheese case but they only had the Ski Queen red package. :/

Okay. I made it a mission in Europe, I can make it a mission here. I'm adding it officially to the To Do list.

kitchen tips I regularly use but don't think I've said on here

-you know those weird, unwieldy apple slicers that kinda suck at doing that job? they actually work REALLY well on potatoes for roasted potato wedges. I like them best for red potatoes.

-(though apple slicers CAN be useful if you need to divide up a caramel apple on a stick since the stick aligns with the core and helps guide the tool)

-if you have some kitchen thing with a stubborn sticker on it, you can loosen the glue with a little oil. that's primarily what makes glue-b-gone things work.

-if you are baking a chocolate cake, dust the pan with cocoa powder instead of white flour. OR if you've got a weird color cake like a box mix of an orange cake or funfetti or something, dust the pan with a little bit of the mixed dry ingredients. this will reduce discolored spots on the finished cake.

-likewise, if you have to turn a cake out on a cutting board, dust the cutting board or the top of the cake with powdered sugar to keep it from sticking.

-in fact, a word about dusting: if you are flouring a table for dough work, you get a finer spread of flour if you pinch some in your fingers and throw it across the table like you're skipping a stone.

-have three/four bowls if you're separating egg whites and yolks because you never know which egg will end up being A Little Bitch that immediately wants to scramble. set them out so you have a bowl in the middle where you do the actual separating, then put the yolk in another bowl if it's successful and transfer the white to the other. repeat like this until you get a fuckup, then switch out as necessary.

-you've heard to preheat the oven, and that's true, but two other things you should know are 1. every time you open the oven you're losing about 15 degrees F of heat and that'll have to build up again, so don't open the oven too often or you'll screw up your cook time and 2. you CAN make use of your oven while it's preheating, like preheating a pan or melting butter for a recipe.

-your oven probably has a warm setting. if you have oven safe plates, you can use this to preheat your plates. a warm plate for warm food really does enhance the experience. I also use the warm setting to hold finished pancakes when I'm making a big batch of them.

-the warm setting can also be used for long time-low heat cooking like drying out fruit or baking meringues.

Trimberly's first year hosting Thanksgiving for @magicmumu2. (It's not my best work so I apologize.)

Kim watched Trini put the turkey in the oven while she sat on the counter stuffing homemade cinnamon rolls in her mouth. Trini closed the oven and turned to her and started to laugh. She walked up to Kim and swiped frosting from her cheek.

"What do we do now?" Kim asked through a mouthful.

"Wait," Trini said. "I'll start the pies in about an hour, and a few hours later I'll start the sides."

"So...why did I have to get up early with you?" Kim asked after swallowing and before shoving another big bite into her mouth.

"Because." Trini placed her hands on her girlfriend's knees. "If I have to wake up early, you do, too." Kim pouted.

"Why?"

"Because you love me. And because I'm making this whole meal by myself."

"You can trust me with something," Kim said.

"I don't think I can."

"Sure! What's easy?" Kim asked with excited eyes. Trini thought about it.

"Well, you want that canned cranberry crap, so you can dump it on a plate and slice it. Later."

"I will be the best slicer ever," Kim nodded firmly. Trini snorted with a smile.

"I'm sure."

"What can we do til then?" Kim asked honestly at first, but then her lips twisted into a playful smirk. Trini knew.

"Now?" Trini asked, running her hands up Kim's thighs.

"With you? Anytime," Kim said, putting her plate down to wrap her arms around Trini's neck. Trini laughed.

"What about your cinnamon rolls?"

"I already ate three," Kim said. "I'll eat the rest after." Trini shook her head, but leaned up and kissed Kim softly.

"Let's go, Princess."

"Yay!"

Trini and Kim had moved into their house five months ago, and it was the first time they lived somewhere that they could have friends and family over for big meals. So they told their parents Thanksgiving would be at their house this year. They also invited Tommy and Zack, who had nowhere to be for the holiday. As well as Billy and his mom. And though all three mothers had offered to come over early to help cook, Trini declared she would do it all on her own. She knew she could, and she wanted to.

When they came back downstairs, Trini pulled out all of her ingredients for three pies. Pecan, pumpkin, and apple. While she set everything up, she could hear Kim in the living room searching for something to watch. Trini turned on some music, but not as loudly as she might usually listen, so that Kim could hear the TV. She had done most of the prep work for the pies the day before, so she really only had to put them together and put them in the oven. When she was done, she walked into the living room and sat beside Kim.

"What are we watching?" She asked.

"A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving of course!"

"You don't want to watch the parade?"

"Eh." Kim lifted a shoulder. "Parades are slow and boring."

Trini should have known. Kim watched A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving every year. She smiled and curled up against Kim to watch with her.

"I'm hungry," Kim said, wandering into the kitchen. Trini looked over her shoulder to her.

"Well you'll have to wait for dinner," she said. "If you eat now you won't have room."

"Haaaave you met me?" Kim asked with a raised brow.

"I swear, if you don't eat tonight I'm moving out," Trini said, pointing.

"I will!" Kim bounced to the freezer and pulled out pizza rolls. She dumped a small pile onto a plate and popped them in the microwave. Trini said nothing about the amount of food Kim was about to eat.

"You'll also be banned from turkey next year," Trini warned. Kim rolled her eyes.

"Triiin, I'll be fine," she said. Trini raised her hand, giving up. If Kim wanted to risk spoiling her appetite, she would have to learn on her own.

Trini glanced at Kim shoving pizza rolls in her mouth and shook her head. She put her pies in the second oven, something she had demanded she had to have, and she was glad she had. She didn't know how she would make a whole feast without it. After putting the pies in she started on the sides. She heard Kim groan and looked over.

"I'm so full," Kim said.

"Did you just eat those in five minutes?" Trini asked.

"What?" Kim asked innocently.

"Why do I love you?"

"Because I'm hot and funny," Kim replied easily.

"I don't think you're as funny as you think you are."

Everything came out beautifully and most of it was in the oven keeping warm. Trini was exhausted. But she still had guests to host. Kim had set the table and opened the bottles of wine to breathe. She came into the kitchen where Trini was already drinking a glass of wine.

"Should I do the cranberry sauce now?" Kim asked.

"Sure." Trini nodded. She picked up the can and handed it to Kim. "Think you got it covered?"

"Please," Kim said. "Piece of cake." She got out the can opener and started to open the can. She slid the jelly roll of sauce onto a plate that Trini handed her and picked up the knife. "Got this," she whispered to herself. Trini smiled. Kim started to cut the sauce in uneven pieces. Then she yelped.

"What?!" Trini asked.

"I cut myself," Kim pouted. She held up a bloody finger.

"Jesus, Kim." Trini grabbed a towel and wrapped it around Kim's hand and put pressure on it. "Your finger is still in one piece, right?"

"I think so," Kim said. She whimpered. Trini sighed and kissed her cheek.

"It's okay," she said. After a couple of minutes she opened the towel and pulled Kim to the sink. She ran it under warm water to wash the blood off and looked at it. "It's all still there. But I think you'll need more than a bandaid."

"Stitches?" Kim asked fearfully.

"Nah," Trini shook her head. "Not that bad. Come on. We gotta get changed anyway."

They went upstairs and Kim sat on the bed while Trini wrapped her finger with gauze and tape. She got Kim some ibuprofen for the pain. She left Kim to sit there for a bit while she put on nicer clothes than leggings and one of Kim's big t-shirts.

"Aw," Kim said.

"What?"

"I like when you wear leggings. Your ass looks great in them."

"Are you saying I don't look good now?" Trini asked.

"Hmm. Spin," Kim said. Trini rolled her eyes, but did. Trini wore black pants and a mustard colored sweater. "You look amazing, baby."

"Thank you."

Everyone had arrived and were seated around the table. They oohed and ahhed as Trini and Kim brought all the food to the table. They sat at either end of the table and Zack got up to carve to turkey. They all soon had their plates full. Trini didn't want to have everyone say what they were grateful for. She found it silly. They all knew they were thankful to be together.

"Thank you guys for comin'," Trini said. "Eat." She watched everyone begin to eat with pride. Then she noticed that Kim was shuffling her food around her plate, after taking one bite. She looked a little green. Trini raised a brow. "Kim?" She asked, knowingly. Kim looked up, ashamed.

"I ate a package of Oreos," she said guiltily.

"Are you full?" Trini asked. Kim looked like she didn't want to say it.

"I just need a second," Kim said. She looked down at her food.

"How are you full already?" Zack asked.

"Because she's been eating non-stop all day," Trini said. Zack laughed.

"Oh man, you're in trouble," he told Kim. Kim frowned.

"Please don't ban me from turkey next yea," she said.

"You agreed to it," Trini said, shrugging.

"I can eat! I can!" Kim lifted a forkful of turkey to her mouth. She held it there for a moment then put it in her mouth and chewed. "I'm gonna eat all of this," she said determinedly.

"Don't make yourself sick," said Trini.

"It'll pass and I'll be starving," Kim said.

"Okay..." Trini said.

When they were done eating, Kim was still very slowly working on her plate of food. She met Trini's eyes. "I'm not done."

"Okay," Trini said. She got up to start clearing the table. "You can't have dessert until you finish it though." Kim gritted her teeth and looked at her plate.

"I'll eat it," she said again. "Save me a slice of each pie. And the chocolate cake Mama Candace brought." Trini snorted.

"Okay."

An hour later everyone was in the living room with drinks, talking, and Kim was still at the table. She had finished her plate of food and was starting on the pie. Trini could see her from the living room.

"You okay, Princess?" She called. Kim burped loudly and long.

"Oh yeah," she said. "Got more room."

|Chapter•Sixteen|

•|Masterlist|•

"Alright, you guys ready?"

(M/n) and Mikah nodded, facing each other and ready to go at it. Gally smirked and tilted his head, stepping out of the fight circle, his eyes filled with amusement as he stared at them.

"Then... Fight!" With cheering going on in the background, they both charged at each other, laughing as they tripped and pushed each other, trying their best to win. Gally crossed his arms and observed in silence, while the rest of the guys around hyped them up.

He had been monitoring the fights (M/n) had with the Builders, and of course, he was being fair, he gave advice to either of the fighters, telling them what to do and what to avoid. They had been going at it since late afternoon, rushing their tasks as quickly as they could, just so incredibly hyped and excited to help (M/n) beat Stan's ass.

That, and it has been a while since a fighting circle was made outside the typical bonfires they had, so the expectation was high.

"Damn, you're tough," Mikah mumbled to (M/n) as he stood up after tripping over his own feet, but managing to not fall out of the circle. (M/n) smiled at that, and shrugged.

"I learned from the best," Gally felt his body warming up, and he made brief eye contact with (M/n)'s (e/c) eyes, who winked his way.

No one said anything about it, but they did notice the interaction they had, sparing glances amongst themselves, having a whole conversation through their eyes, but everyone continued cheering the fight as it dragged on.

All the noise caught the attention of a few Gladers walking near the place, and they would either walk away or approach someone to ask what was going on, "We're helping (M/n) get ready for his fight with Stan!" They would cheerfully answer, receiving raised eyebrows in surprise.

Many of them were skeptical about the whole "fight ordeal" and were pretty sure a girl had no chance against someone like Stan, but seeing them fighting Glader after Glader made them feel like they underestimated how strong (M/n) really was. And this made more of them gather around, wanting to watch or even participate, but the sun had started to set, so they really didn't have many options other than to leave it for tomorrow.

Now, Brick-nicks, Slicers, and a few Runners had heard of this "tournament" Gally and (M/n) were doing to get the latter ready, and they asked to join, receiving an affirmative answer from both of them.

Of course, with all of this situation going on, someone had to inform Alby about what was actively going on in the Glade, that someone was Fry, who was still worried about the outcome of this fight, but even if neither of them were happy about it, both sides -(M/n) and Stan- had agreed to it, so Alby had no voice over the matter now, even as the Leader.

While enjoying their dinner between laughs, Gally made sure to explain to (M/n) and everyone around the rules, which were similar to the original ones, but a little bit different.

"If (M/n) pushes you out the circle within five minutes, he wins, but if he doesn't, you win," He told to them, and (M/n) nodded, getting more food in his mouth.

"He has won 9 fights out of 10 so far," Doug added, an impressed and proud look on his face, while those that hadn't been around to witness it frowned, asking who beat (M/n).

"Gally," (M/n) muttered while still having his mouth full, making a few grimaces while others chuckled at his manners, "I'll win someday... Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but I will," he locked eyes with Gally, who had a smirk on his face, glee showing on his face, "Mark my words, big guy."

Dinner continued for another while, deciding to simply chill and talk with each other, a few of them making up tactics that could work against (M/n), using his weak spots to their advantage, and of course, (M/n) was planning how to counteract those tactics in his brain.

He had a feeling the next few days were gonna go by exactly the same, or they pretty much will.

///////

The next day was a little busier, they had work to do when something broke and they had to completely replace it rather than fix it, even so, they fought between breaks, at least a few fights until they were done with work, the guys who had already lost taking care of building while the others waited their turn.

Gally was a little stressed having to supervise the fights and the Builders, but Alec had taken his place as the "referee" while he was away.

It was fun, even if not much happened. Unaware of how Jason and Zachary had been spying on them, before tailing back to Stan to tell him what was happening regarding his "rival".

And being around so many guys, specifically Gally, meant that Lucas wasn't around to bother him, just... Staring from a safe distance, always making sure he didn't lock eyes with Gally, who would rather watch (M/n) having fun and hearing his happy laugh over getting his mood soured by a dude who couldn't take a hint.

And, like the previous night, the day ended with more talking, planning tactics, and jokes.

The afternoon and evening of the next day went pretty much the same, this time adding the sounds of the Sloppers hyping Stan up as he also did his own "fights". He was fighting the skinniest and lightest guy in the Glade, who was poor Ty, another Slopper.

They didn't try to fight in a secluded area like (M/n) and the Builders did, they were fighting out in the open, in the actual fight circle where everyone could see them. Worse was that Stan was pretty proud of his strength at being able to throw the smaller guy around as he pleased. Even Lucas got dragged into it, and (M/n) enjoyed watching them, amusement shining in his eyes as he observed Stan struggle against the greenie, who was putting up a fight against the guy that had become officially his Keeper.

Yeah, Lucas wasn't good at anything, so it was fair he would be put there.

As he watched, he couldn't help but frown at the realization that Stan might as well not be taking their upcoming fight seriously, he felt as if the Keeper was mocking him, in a way. Even so, (M/n) was taking it seriously, and that's all he needed really.

But he wasn't gonna waste his deserved break just watching Stan make himself look better, he rolled his eyes and made his way back to the treehouse. Pretty much everyone was lying around on the dirt, most of them in complete silence but others, like Doug and Lee, who were messing around, chuckling to themselves.

(M/n) smiled and shook his head, quickly realizing Gally hadn't come back yet, having muttered something about getting his sketchbook, before making his way up the ladder and going inside to fetch a book. He sat on the balcony, his legs propped on one of the steps as he opened the book, resuming his reading session.

Less than five minutes had gone by when Gally showed up, his eyes landing on (M/n) as he quietly read to himself, a focused yet relaxed expression on his face, the occasional hint of a smile pulling his lips. He got closer, slowly, so as to not distract him, and he heard the faint sound of him humming the lyrics of a song.

Something in Gally's mind clicked, having some sort of déjà vú, as if he had already lived something similar to this or, more specifically, already heard the song, listening to the few lyrics (M/n) would mumble to himself. He didn't know where he heard those lyrics before, but he didn't really care, he had an idea in mind he needed to draw now.

He got on a comfortable position against a nearby tree, having a good view of (M/n) from his spot on the ground, and he got lost in his drawing as if he were trapped in a trance. His drawing turned out to be a mixture of his reality and his imagination, or more so, like the images his foggy memory showed to him.

There was something about these dandelions that he couldn't really understand, they always felt special to Gally in a weird yet comforting way, and he constantly wondered why. But now, observing the image of (M/n) he drew, sitting on a field of dandelions while reading and the wind flew his hair around, he could somehow put two and two together, but that didn't help to answer his wondering thoughts.

He just knew there was a reason why (M/n) and he felt so familiar, getting along so quickly and feeling comfortable around each other.

And why being around (M/n) made him feel safe.

///////

The dawn of a new day arrived at the Glade, slowly waking everybody up.

(M/n) yawned and stretched as he sat up, pulling the sheets aside and rubbing his face. Some light came through his slightly opened curtains and he sighed, remembering that the fight with Stan was that day.

He didn't like to admit it, but he had been questioning his decision to fight him ever since they argued that day, maybe a fight wasn't necessary and it definitely wasn't the best approach, but it was something he said in the heat of the moment, it'll be too late and cowardly of him to back away now.

And his friends were more hyped about the whole thing than he was, which was kind of funny.

He stood up and made his way out and down the ladder, gently petting Bark who stuck his snout out of his house and (M/n) continued making his way to the Homestead, wondering if there was any coffee left, worst case he'd ask for more next Box day.

He greeted Fry, John, and Jack as they cooked breakfast, a few guys were sitting around the living room, talking in a mumble or falling asleep on their seats, (M/n) smiled at them and made his way to the kitchen. Fortunately, there was some leftover coffee when he checked the bag, and he made himself a steaming cup of coffee.

(M/n) was standing outside the kitchen, by the door, holding the cup in his hands and gently blowing on it before taking a few careful sips, and his hearing picked up the distinctive sound of Gally's footsteps as he walked out of his room. He hid his smile behind the rim of the cup as he thought of how he was able to tell the footsteps belonged to Gally, not really finding it weird.

And there he was, Gally walked down the stairs while messing with his hair, yawning as he reached the bottom, his eyes were barely open, but he managed to see (M/n) standing there, watching him with a heavy stare, making him feel vulnerable.

"Morning," he placed his hand on (M/n)'s head, messing with his hair and chuckling at the sound of his groan.

"Sleep well, big guy?" Gally hummed in response, just a neutral sound that didn't say 'yes' or 'no', it was an 'I slept' hum.

Without saying anything else, (M/n) trailed behind Gally as he got his tray, a plate filled with breakfast and a cup of juice, before making his way to the usual table they sat at. There was a comfortable silence between them for a while, until the dining area began getting lively as more Gladers showed up, and now, their table was filled.

Kurt sat next to (M/n), a mischievous smile on his face, "I'm gonna beat you today, (M/n)," they chuckled at that but Gally perked up before the (h/c) haired male could retaliate.

"Oh, about that," they looked at their Keeper, who had managed to get the other guys' attention, "We'll let (M/n) rest today to get ready for tonight, so no fighting," Kurt whined but accepted, while (M/n) had a pout on his lips.

I wanted to play around with the others...

Gally had to take a deep breath and look away, otherwise he would've given in to (M/n)'s puppy eyes.

They continued eating breakfast for a while, and shortly after, when the food had sort of settled in their stomachs, they went to get the little work they had left to do. And soon enough, they were gathered around the Box, just playing and joking around while they waited for it to arrive.

Gally watched from his spot, a smile on his face as he heard (M/n)'s laughing mixed with the others.

"God... I can't breathe..." He mumbled between laughs, standing up from his place on the ground, "Well, I'll go take a walk around, see you guys in a bit!"

Complaint whines followed his words and (M/n) simply mocked them, shaking his head and heading into the Deadheads. He greeted Bark and made sure his bowls were full, which they were, so he didn't have to fill them again and he made his way past his treehouse, further into the forest.

He hadn't really explored the Deadheads besides that one time when he came across the graves, and he was enjoying the sun shining through the leaves and branches, recognizing and finding the exact spot where Gally did some of his drawings. He wondered if there was a reason Gally would seclude himself from the other guys in the Glade, and even though he had a slight idea, he'd rather not assume, so he let the thought slip by.

He was really tempted to go back and get his Polaroid just to take pictures of the place, even if it was only trees and bushes around, it was beautiful in its own way.

With his mind busy as he contemplated his surroundings, he didn't realize the group of Gladers sneaking up on him.

The next thing (M/n) knew was that his body jerked violently as he was pushed against a tree, losing his balance and falling face down to the dirt. He coughed and gasped for air, his arms trembling as he tried to pick himself up, but a hard kick to his ribs made his hold falter, followed by the pressure of someone's foot pressing to his back, keeping him pinned to the ground.

He didn't know what was happening, he had probably hit his head against the tree because he was dizzy and disoriented, his hearing sounded as if he was underwater, and he was wondering what the shuck was going on.

"You sure about this, man?" The shaky voice of a guy asked, followed by a scoff.

"If you're gonna be a pussy then you can leave," (M/n) couldn't recognize any of the voices, so he tried to look at them and see who they were, but he was greeted with another kick to his torso, knocking the air out of his lungs, making him cough.

After that, silence engulfed them, followed by more kicks and punches. However, this attack was previously planned, his aggressors were avoiding hitting him in places where the bruises would be visible. They knew what they were doing.

He wanted to scream, he tried to, but his mouth was covered, a cold and sharp blade pressing on his neck, "Uh uh," was all the voice said, their warm breath hitting his ear and making his stomach churn. He could vomit right then and there. But he didn't.

(M/n) simply resigned himself to being beat up, taking short breaths as he kept his eyes closed and head covered, the dizzy feeling remained and clung to him.

But almost like a miracle, someone came by.

"(M/n)?"

Newt...? Newt!

He started squirming around, trying to get a kick to his aggressors, who groaned in pain and hit him harder, making him release a loud grunt, successfully getting Newt's attention, "(M/n)?!"

At the sound of an intruder, the guys around his beat-up form began scurrying away.

"Hey!" They made sure to keep their heads low as they ran through the dark parts of the Deadheads, avoiding Newt's vision as they ran away, "Shucking..."

"Newt..." He whispered weakly, struggling to sit up against the tree, and he watched with glossy eyes how the blond rushed to his side, cursing at the pain in his leg. Newt knelt next to him and helped him until he was sitting up, his back and head tilting back to rest on the tree behind him, groaning with every deep breath he took as he held his sides.

Newt didn't know what to do, (M/n) was badly beaten up and dirty, and he didn't have to ask to know what had happened, he had to get him to the med room and tell Alby what occurred so they could find the culprits. And tell Gally, who had asked him if he could go find (M/n) while he was busy with the Box

"Okay, uh... Wait here, I'll go get Gally-," Before he could stand up to leave, (M/n) held his wrist, tightly, preventing him from doing so, "(M/n), I have to tell them what happened-"

"No," he muttered, teeth gritted as he pushed himself to kneel on the dirt, "You can't tell... Anyone about this, Newt..."

The blond frowned, annoyed and confused at the way (M/n) was acting, "Listen, I don't know if you've realized, but you were used like a bloody sandbag less than five minutes ago," (M/n) didn't care, he pulled Newt closer to him, their faces inches away, trying to get his point across.

"You won't say anything about this, Newt," his eyes stared into Newt's, determined and sure of his words, "Promise me."

Newt huffed and tried to pull away from (M/n)'s grip, but it only tightened around his wrist, now hurting him. His frown deepened, his jaw clenched as he held a pained groan, maintaining eye contact with (M/n), who refused to give in.

In the end, Newt sighed, defeated "Fine, I won't tell anyone," (M/n) didn't back up, his grip loosened but he was still holding him, "You have my word, shank," after a couple of seconds went by, he was convinced that Newt wasn't gonna say anything or run away, and he let out a relieved sigh, groaning at the pull around his ribs, "Are you even in condition to fight tonight?"

Newt looked at him, worried about his current situation, but (M/n) shrugged and slowly started getting up on his feet, "Yes, of course," he responded in a breathy voice, and Newt let out a deep sigh, messing with his blond hair in frustration. He obviously wouldn't be able to withstand the fight, and yet, he was so prideful and stubborn to back off.

He stood up as well, observing (M/n) with his hands on his hips, silently judging his decisions, "Well... Gally told me to come get you, so let's go," grunting with every step, (M/n) followed Newt, trying to rub off some of the dirt sticking to his hands and face, something Newt realized, "Hold on, let me help you," he pulled the sleeve of his shirt down and held it, using it to wipe (M/n)'s face.

His expression relaxed and tears brimmed his eyes, "Thanks, Newt..." The blond was caught off guard, and he simply showed a weak smile.

"Yeah, well... There's some cream for those bruises in the med room, if you need it," (M/n) nodded and they soon continued walking, albeit a little slow since his ribs were hurting pretty bad.

By the time they appeared behind the trees, Gally was done unloading the Box and putting the supplies in their place, just a little worried about why Newt was taking so long to come back with (M/n), but there they were.

"There you are," he dropped his arm around (M/n)'s shoulder, who tried not to flinch at the pain and smiled at Gally, "Why are you so dirty?" He chuckled and reached his hand up to pull some grass out of his (h/c) hair.

"Oh, I was just playing with Bark," Newt was almost surprised at how well (M/n) was able to lie, a smile on his face and a chuckle escaping past his lips, but he saw how he shifted in place, his arm wrapped around his stomach and holding gently onto his side.

He couldn't handle watching Gally's behavior around (M/n), so he simply left without saying a word, and almost immediately making eye contact with Stan.

The Keeper of the Sloppers was surrounded by his friends, who were gossiping and laughing, while Stan had a victorious smile on his face.

Somehow, Newt wasn't surprised that he had pulled this whole stunt with (M/n), but he could only play with fire for so long before getting burnt.

One of is very young, around 10 or 11, he isn't really sure, but he always feels super uncomfortable and scared to front because of how little he is... How can we try to reassure him with that? Sorry if this is a little weird, but you're the first account I've ever founds that supports us and offers advice

-🐣

I'll list some things that makes our system kids the most comfortable when they're out!

Having someone in front nearby, if it's possible. It's nice to have an adult around in case there's something they genuinely can't or don't know how to do.

Pajamas! Whatever fits y'all's vibes, but for us, it's really loose ones with lots of layers (especially if they have trauma related to being naked).

Consider things like small, kid friendly snacks. It doesn't have to be junk food necessarily, just something you know you like! Try to make the large things bite-sized by using a tool (like an apple slicer for apples), or getting the adult I mentioned to cut it up.

Kid's media! Especially nostalgic ones.

If you're able to get one, buying a sippy cup was honestly life changing for us.

Can't believe I got this far down the list without mentioning it; plushies!! Our system kids LOVE plushies, and it's their top comfort item.

At the end of the day, these are just suggestions. It would be best to ask your kiddo what he likes, and compromise where you can! There may be something he needs or wants that I didn't list here, so be sure to check!

Hope this helped! Have a great day!

🖤💜💙💚💛

I love dealing with people who take pride in their work, and they’re nice about it too.

Several times lately I’ve tried making Philly cheese-steaks. I cut the meat as thin as I can, but I want it even thinner.

The grocery store closest to my house has an excellent butcher shop. The selection is amazing and it’s extremely clean. One of these times I am going to try one of the $42/pound cuts, after I practice preparing several less expensive ones first.

The guys working behind the counter are the best. If you bring in kitchen knives they will sharpen them while you shop. I heard that they will slice steaks too.

I asked one of the butchers about that, wondering if they’d use one of those big Hobart deli slicers.

“No, we don’t have any raw-food slicers.”

Didn’t hurt to ask, I thought. As I turned to leave he said, “But what I can do is slice them thin by hand.”

He gave me a big smile. “I’m really good at cutting very thinly. And when I’m done, I’ll put them between some wax paper sheets and press them even thinner. You’ll almost be able to see through them!”

I asked what it cost. He started to look at the price cards in the case. “Well, this cut is...“

“No, the cost for the service,” I interrupted nicely.

“Oh, no charge for that,” he said as he gave another big mile.

I’m starting to drool just thinking about the thin sliced steak for my next Philly cheese steak sandwich.

#In college I cut my finger tip on a Hobart slicer.#I didn't need stitches but it hurt like hell #Nearly four decades later I still get shivers when I see a Hobart slicer

workplace whump: restaurants

regularly using sharp knives means sooner or later you're going to draw your own blood

Dull knives can also hurt you and worse (take care of your knives)

Ticket stabbers are sharp and a real pain in the hand to slam your hand onto

Some of the worst kitchen injures I see online and in person come from mandolin slicers (likely because the blade never gets sharpened properly)

Regularly using fire means sooner or later you're going to burn yourself

Burning yourself through a wet spot on the towel you grab a pan from the oven with

Grabbing a metal bowl that was left on the flat top that you didn't know was on the flat top with full force and dropping the bowl full of food on the ground and also burning your hand in the process

Hot oil splashing at your face

Dipping your entire hand into the hot fryer (I don't know how this guy has survived till now either but he did do it a second time apparently. Cowerkers that should get their own whump prompt post)

Standing all day

Hot as fuck kitchen with minimal air circulation meaning the entire room is hot and humid and you have to wear long black pants, black sleeved shirt, and a hat (Healthcode+dress code)

Exhaustion. Imagine working 10+ hours 5 days a week and then on Sunday being required to work a double on your day off cutting your weekend in half and the one remaining day being spent at your parents house to spend mother's day (because you weren't there yesterday. Because mothers day is a restraunt holiday. Which means you work more not less) so good luck finding time to relax or get chores done before jumping in to another busy week.

Finding things you didn't know could break skin: tin foil seal edges of oil bottles. Edges of sufficiently fucked up cambros that should have been replaced a year ago. Freezer doors where the plastic has chipped off.

Hungry. Stealing food. Figuring out what food is safe to steal. Never eating more than a mouthful at a time. Chef gives you a mistakenly made side Mac and cheese. It's slightly cold but it's the best thing you've ever tasted. By the time you can actually finish it, it's been stone cold for three hours (deluge of tickets ringing in)

Banging your head on the pots and pans hanging up by the sinks.

Shucking oysters means shucking your own hand on occasion (record here is needing 7 stitches I think) don't be stupid with a shucker it's sharper than it looks.

Contracting something from sticking your hand in the dirty silverware bucket.

Stabbing yourself by sticking your hand in the dirty silverware bucket.

#pyreprompts #whump prompt #whump scenario #whump prompts #Could chef be considered a whumper #All of this is personal experience either I did it or saw it #I've lost track of how many cuts and burns I've gotten that weren't so much life threatening rather than #'Fuck I have to spend time cleaning and bandaging it and putting a glove over the finger bandaid #And if I was at home I wouldn't give a shit but blood is apparently a 'biological hazard' or whatever and cant be put in the food of guests

Modular Kitchen Accessories | Simplify Your Cooking Experience with the Best In-class Accessories

Cooking is an art, and like every artist, each cook needs the right tools. A well-equipped kitchen can transform your cooking experience. No more struggling with obsolete cutlery or inefficient equipment, the right kitchen accessories will help you whip up a treat every time.

Unleash Your Inner MasterChef with Quality Kitchen Accessories

Gone are the days when kitchens were only used for cooking. Today, the kitchen is the heart of the home, where you not only cook but also bond with your family over food. Modular kitchen accessories, with their innovative designs, are revolutionising how we approach cooking and kitchen management. They optimize the kitchen space with their sleek and compact designs, being both practical and aesthetically pleasing. Imagine a beautiful set of wall-mounted racks or an elegantly designed spice carousel - these are not just accessories, they're conversation starters.

Additionally, these accessories are made to be cleaned easily, which adds to the hygiene and cleanliness of your kitchen – an aspect that cannot be overlooked. Also, their advanced mechanisms and tools can cut down on cooking time significantly. From smart touch faucets to multipurpose slicers, the objective is clear: to make your time in the kitchen productive, enjoyable, and filled with culinary exploration.

Why Opt for Wooden Kitchen Products?

Imagine this: you're preparing a wholesome meal, and you reach out for a cutting board; it's solid, feels good to touch, and has that timeless look that only wood can provide. This isn't just a fantasy – wooden kitchen products bring this elegance and so much more to your kitchen. The charm of solid wood cannot be understated, especially in a kitchen setting. Integrating wooden kitchen products into your modern kitchen does not just exude a vintage charm but comes with a load of perks.

Wooden items are renowned for their durability and longevity. When treated right, wooden kitchen products like cutting boards, utensil holders, and spice jars can last generations. Plus, they add a warm, natural aesthetic that is difficult to replicate with any other material. They bring a piece of nature into your space, creating a cosy and inviting environment. Moreover, they are eco-friendly, supporting your drive towards sustainability. In a world where environmental consciousness is not just appreciated but necessary, using wooden accessories is a step in the right direction.

Stay Well-equipped with Wall Mounted Accessories

In the race to make the most out of every inch, wall-mounted kitchen accessories stand out as an innovative solution. Space is a precious commodity in modern-day kitchens, and these accessories help capitalize on vertical space that is often underutilized. They save counter space, making your kitchen appear more organized and clutter-free, a quality that is aesthetically pleasing, as well as functional. You can easily reach for pots, pans, or spices without having to navigate through a labyrinth of kitchenware.

Wall mounted accessories also offer easy access to commonly used items. Consider having a magnetic knife strip or a hanging utensil rack – they not only store your tools efficiently but also put them on display in a manner that is both accessible and stylish. Additionally, they add a decorative touch to your kitchen. With various designs and materials available, they can serve as an expression of your personal taste, uplifting the overall atmosphere.

Invest in High-Quality Cutlery

Every masterful meal is as good as the cutlery it is prepared and served with. High-quality cutlery undoubtedly lasts longer, resisting wear and tear and proving to be a cost-effective investment over time. But the benefits don’t stop there. It elevates your dining experience; picture the feel of a perfectly balanced knife as it slices through a tender piece of meat or the elegance of a beautifully crafted fork as it complements the table setting.

Moreover, exquisite cutlery speaks of your exquisite taste when you entertain guests. It's all about the details – the weight, the material, the finish – all contribute to that special feeling of a well-curated dining environment. When it comes to hosting, your choice of cutlery can become the subtle centrepiece that signifies sophistication and attention to detail.

Harness the Power of Advanced Cooking Tools

Embrace the marvels of technological advancements with modern cooking tools that are nothing short of a blessing for passionate cooks. These appliances, infused with the latest innovations, can drastically cut down on the time and effort required for your cooking routines. This means that you have more time to concentrate on perfecting flavors and exploring new recipes rather than being bogged down by preparatory tasks.

They speed up the cooking process with efficient energy use and often come with pre-set functions for specific dishes which ensure uniform cooking – a critical factor for tasty, well-prepared meals. Besides their operational advantages, these advanced tools are designed with user safety in mind, featuring secure locking systems, auto shut-off functions, and cool-touch exteriors. With these, cooking fast doesn't mean cooking reckless. They are intuitive, safe, and user-friendly, making them a must-have in the modern kitchen arsenal.

Reap the Benefits of Storage Units

The secret to a seamless cooking experience often lies in the art of organization. When you can locate your ingredients and utensils without a moment’s delay, cooking becomes less of a frantic scramble and more of an artful dance. Modular storage units, designed to use space effectively, are essential to achieving this level of harmony. They provide that much-needed organized storage for easy access, allowing you to find what you need when you need it, without any unnecessary hassle.

Moreover, they help maintain cleanliness and order, which is paramount in a kitchen environment. A neat kitchen clearance mentally prepares you to handle food safely and allows you to put more focus on creating rather than cleaning up clutter. With the right storage units, every spoon, knife, and jar has its place, contributing to a sense of calm and order that is pivotal for any culinary creation.

Choose Durability with Stainless Steel Accessories

Stainless steel accessories are not just about the gleam and shine they bring to your kitchen; they are about making a wise, long-term investment. They are rust-resistant and promise longevity, remaining unaffected by the humidity and wear that kitchen accessories typically go through. Also, they are a breeze when it comes to cleaning, resisting stains and odors that can compromise your kitchen’s hygiene.

The sleek, shiny finish of stainless steel brings an element of style and sophistication that echoes through the space. Be it a set of measuring spoons or a spacious sink, the visual appeal of stainless steel is undeniable. It complements any kitchen design, from the traditional to the ultra-modern, proving that these accessories are not just durable but also versatile in style.

Rethink Comfort with Modular Kitchen Furniture

Pairing comfort with style in the kitchen is a masterpiece in itself. When your kitchen furniture aligns with the modular setup, you ensure that every square inch is put to good use. Choosing furniture that seamlessly merges with your kitchen’s layout intensifies the overall functionality without compromising aesthetics. Sink into a comfortably cushioned chair at the kitchen island and you'll find that the time spent in the kitchen is not just about cooking—it's a comfortable and enjoyable part of your daily routine.

Apart from providing functional comfort, the furniture enhances the ambiance and aesthetics. Whether it be chic bar stools or an elegant dining set, the right furniture can convert your kitchen from merely a place to prepare meals to a luxurious and welcoming space where memories are made.

Embrace Innovation with Smart Gadgets

A smart kitchen is the hallmark of modern living, and the layer of convenience these gadgets bring is nothing short of transformative. These smart gadgets, from programmable coffee machines to voice-activated ovens, not only enhance productivity and efficiency but also pave the way for a more eco-friendly lifestyle through energy-saving features.

Moreover, they are designed with user-friendly interfaces, which means that they are intuitive to use, making cooking less of a chore and more of a delight. The seamless integration with other smart home devices adds another layer of convenience, allowing you to manage your kitchen appliances with a single tap on your smartphone or a simple voice command. Innovations like these redefine what's possible in the kitchen and open up new horizons for culinary expression.

Remember, cooking is not just about putting food on the table; it's about the joy of creating, the excitement of experimentation, and the warmth of sharing. Modular kitchen accessories facilitate all these aspects, turning the kitchen into a sanctuary of culinary delight. Whether you're a busy professional seeking efficiency or a passionate home cook looking for elegance and convenience, modular kitchen accessories cater to all your needs. So why wait?
