Oriental Spice and some Chocolate

Last week, I was doing my obligated cleaning round at home. As I was imagining how wonderful it would be if dust magically disappeared, dishes would clean themselves and how wonderful it would be to have my own personal cook during weekdays, another thought hit me. My cleaning dislike level is pretty high, but imagine how life was for a good 1950s housewife. A lifestyle without technological innovations like dishwashers, smart washing machines and induction cooking. More importantly, a time where a woman’s place was in fact often in the kitchen.

Being independent and living on your own was unthinkable and technological innovations were limited. If you had any other ambitions outside the household, you could flush them through the toilet 9 out 10 times. Therefore, appreciating the freedom you currently have is definitely something I do very often. On the other hand, a laugh a day keeps the misery away.
