ok, I'm off to Publix to see if I can be inspired for dinner choices.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have kitchen cupboards whose doors are a hazard to my head if I leave them open--but Kat or lori or Allyson would be perfectly safe wandering under them. However, they'd pretty much starve to death (or go crazy from caffeine deprivation) since I don't think they could reach anything not at the front of the lowest shelf.
I need a very tall boyfriend, obviously, since I've put stuff where I can't get it back down.

This statement doesn't even parse in my 2-stepstools, plus a long-handled grabby thing in the kitchen world.
Not that I would object in any way to a tall boyfriend, mind you.

Long-handled grabby thing is a recipe for knockover disaster for me. I do have a stepstool, but I don't like how it looks, and hide it far away.

I don't have much choice. I'm barely 5'3" (5'2 1/2" if you believe my GP's nurse. I don't choose to), and I'm the tall one in my household.
Your plan has a tremendous amount of potential, though.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I have one that's fairly ugly, but it folds up and fits in between my fridge and the wall. I use it with frequency.
Epic, I'm 5'3", too. We buy our underwear in the same place and are the same height. We are TWINS!!
eta: AND! I am the tall one in my household too!!! Of course, the only other one in my household is a cat, but still, I'm WAY taller than him.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We have a stepladder in the kitchen, since the BF (aka "Tally McHeightypants") puts everything very very high. Since he does 95% of the cooking, however, I don't mind that I can't reach half our stuff without climbing.

At 5'8, I'm mildly resentful when I need to get stuff off the top shelf. On the other hand, this kitchen has more cupboard space than I can properly use (well, if you don't count that there's nowhere to put the mop or the garbage can), so I'm not up there that often, and I mostly just kneel on the counter.

Can I have some of your cupboards? I have very little storage space, which is why I use my stepladder all the time. I have to use every bit of shelf space I have.
