Archaeological discoveries show that, in their most basic form, knives have been made and used for as long as humans have existed.  

The anatomy of a modern kitchen knife includes the point, the tip, the edge, the spine, the blade, the heel, the handle, the holster, the tang and the butt.

Multiple different shapes and sizes of knife exist for different uses and although you do not need them all it is a good idea to have a range so you can choose the right knife for the job.  For example have you tried peeling a potato with a chef's knife?  

Knives could be stored in a block, a drawer or a chef's wrap.  In some houses the knives need to be kept hidden away, out of site, just in case. 

A recent UK survey of couples living in mixed gender households found a considerable divide between roles performed solely by males and females.

In over 40% of the 1314 households surveyed in 2019, men were responsible for putting out the bins and gardening.  However in over 50% of the same households women exclusively cleaned the bathrooms, did the laundry, dusted and polished. Although 17% of households reported men were responsible for cleaning the oven, the number rose to 47% of women.  

Women really can have it all.  They can go out to work and carry on working when they get home too.

The phrase 'naughty but nice' to sell fresh cream cakes was coined by author Salman Rushdie when he worked in advertising pre The Satanic Verses controversy.

Rushdie isn't the only famous person to start out in advertising.  Fay Weldon is responsible for the team that came up with 'Go to work on an egg'.  Dr Seuss drew the illustrations for beer ads in the 30s, Jim Henson of muppet fame wrote over 100 coffee commercials and John Hughes worked on the KFC account pre directing all those 80s brat-pack movies.  

An insulated, padded glove designed to easily protect the wearer's hands from heat when working in the kitchen.

Personally I never use an oven glove as I find them cumbersome.  I use a tea towel instead, a habit I picked up when working in professional kitchens 30 years ago.  I find this a much easier alternative (just don't use a damp one).
