An attractive ceiling rack or wall hooks are always good for pots and pans, but generally my pots and pans have been subject to too much use to be attractive on public display. I’d certainly love to have a wrought iron ceiling-hung pot rack filled with lovely dark copper sauciers, but I would never be able to keep the pots looking good. Stove drawers are good for junk drawers. A magnetic knife rack is not as good as a butcher block holder. Sometimes I have found a small kitchen easier to work in than a big one, as an example, peggylou’s kitchen is a bit of a trek from sink to stove. I used to complain about my tiny kitchen until I saw the kitchen on the U-boat at the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. You couldn’t even call that a galley or cubical, and they were cooking for dozens of men.
