Mum : Hey, let's buy an Air Fryer Oven
Me : Hmm.. Ok, but only if you're sure.
And so begins the reshuffling of the entire kitchen.
And waiting, and waiting, and waiting for the Air Fryer to show up.
Which it finally did at about 7pm.
Ugh..
Once it did, and we plopped it down on the worktop, we realised that the kitchen worktops were getting kinda cluttered, and after about 30 minutes of trying to work it out, we opted to give up for the night..
Reorganising kitchen appliances is a tricky business.
There's an Air Fryer Oven, a Microwave Oven, an actual Gas oven.
There's a toaster, a kettle, and a Nescafe Dulce Gusto coffee machine.
There's the tea/sugar/coffee caddies, and a large breadbin.
... And there's only a certain amount of space.
On Tuesday when we ordered the Air Fryer Oven, we both considered the fact that it might replace the actual oven, and then we could get rid of that and have much more worktop and cupboard space in the kitchen.
Unfortunately, we neglected to consider the "until then..." situation, and now we have a cluttered kitchen.
Bugger.
Today, then, will likely be spent moving items from bench to bench, shuffling the dynamics of the room, and hopefully trying to figure out exactly how it's going to be organised. Because, right now, it really isn't very organised at all.
[verse]
The lovely new appliance.
Which warms up bits of toast.
Can make a plate of lovely chips,
Or cook a whole big roast.
[chorus]
The chicken spins. (The chicken spins)
A rotisserie. (around and round again)
Roasted meat. (The chicken spins)
From all the heat. (around and around and around)
[break]
[verse]
All the food that we could make, but first we have to sit and wait,
And design a kitchen layout. Move it 'round for another try out.
Soon we'll try to bake a cake, or cook a fish to put on our plate.
But first we need to organise, and find a place for it,
inside our kitchen.
[chorus - extended]
The chicken spins. (The chicken spins)
A rotisserie. (around and round again)
Roasted meat. (The chicken spins)
From all the heat. (around and around and around)
The chicken spins. (The chicken spins)
For all to see. (around and round again)
Warming all around. (The chicken spins)
Deliciously. (around and around and around)
[break]
[verse]
Soon we'll plug it in and then we'll try some roast potatoes.
Some with their skins on, Jacket style, and others peeled and boiled.
I hope it takes it much less time, than using all the gas.
It says it uses less electric, cooking nice and fast.
[chorus]
The chicken spins. (The chicken spins)
A rotisserie. (around and round again)
Roasted meat. (The chicken spins)
From all the heat. (around and around and around)
The chicken spins. (The chicken spins)
For all to see. (around and round again)
Warming all around. (The chicken spins)
Deliciously. (around and around and around)
[break]
[outro]
(around and around and around and around)
(The chicken spins)
The chicken spins.
(around and around and around and around)
(The chicken spins)
The chicken spins.
(around and around and around and around again)
The chicken spins around.
(around and around and around and around)
(The chicken spins)
The chicken spins.
Int. Dave's Garden - Morning
[Dave is stood beside a large cardboard box painted green, while Green watches from the patio]
Dave: Seven boxes out of two rolls of paint!
Green: Honestly, Dave, you don't need to get a tank.
Dave: But it's for authenticity! Like the taxi thing!
Green: Which ended with you getting a cease and desist letter.
Dave: That was completely a misunderstanding. Nobody would ever going to confuse a large green box with Atari 2600 Combat.
Green: ..Is that... my toaster?
Dave: It's for the tank's rough and ready texturing. Like what they do in films when they add bits of grooblie to things.
Green: I believe that's called greebling. And is generally for little models, not.. [points at his toaster]
[Dave opens a cardboard cutout door on the side of the tank]
Dave: Pew pew! Boom! Look, I even made proper tank controls!
Green: And that's my keyboard taped to a Coke can.
Dave: For authenticity!
Green: You know Combat was just little squares on the screen, right?
Dave: That's why I need a real tank! For reference!
Green: No. Absolutely not.
Dave: Matt knows a guy...
Green: Let's not get other random tank guys involved in this. This cardboard tank is more than enough.
Dave: ...maybe.
Green: And why is the solar battery set to 5,000 percent output?
Dave: But how else would it fire toast?
Green: It's not supposed to be firing. What the heck are you thinking?
Dave: .. That next time I'll probably use a air cannon?
Green: There won't be a next time.
Dave: Space Invaders is next!
Green: [sighs] At least that's just aliens...
Dave: And I know exactly where we can get a rocket!
[End credits roll as Green tries to explain why NASA won't lend Dave a rocket]
