Woman, it seems that you have nothing meaningful to say on this thread. Why dont you go find something that will interest you instead of forming boss on nairaland. Madam feminist.

Well, many people would be peeved but come on civility is what it is.

Death for the car thief? Nah. Just saying ko ni fe te. Hehehe. They can only drive if there's an emergency. Have you ever come across someone just taking their host's vehicle for a spin? Nah, cooking food for survival is one thing, driving off in my volkswagen beetle is another grin. Besides, it's got an immobiliser.

True

Lol @ ko ni fe te...

Cooking food for survival grin

I would have appreciated if some peeps answered yes or no than go on and on how their kitchen is a home to all..

Some poster on the other thread clearly asked what we will all do as the guest.... not as the host.

Nice thread anyways...

Gimme your house address.... I might want to try taking your beetle on a spin.... for survival of course! cool

Lol, glad you got my drift.

Meanwhile, why do you think the babe got up to cook that early, if their want some form of hunger-induced discomfort? Ulcer? Weakness? Coulda been anything, you know?

Per other posters, you juts need to be a good host , this is your kitchen thread, after all. tongue wink. Live and let live, sis.

You stylishly pre-asked for permission to drive the Beetle abi? Anyway, I keep the keys in the freezer cos Junior's hands can't get there. wink

Lol, why are people comparing kitchens to cars? I'm 100%, without a doubt, more concerned with where my car keys are than who's in the kitchen, or any other corner of the house.

For those seeing this as an issue of civilization or whatever,just remember that people are different. Cultures are different and all that.

Living in the west where modern houses are open floor plans doesn't make one more civilized than a nigerian resident whose modern house has a separation between living room and kitchen.
That seperation is probably what turns it into a private arena. Just saying.

Ehen so gentle gentle with the jabs. undecided

It is definitely not an issue for me.

It may not be a big deal to you too for a guest to saunter into your kitchen and make themselves a meal, but then it may be a huge deal for your host if you go into their kitchen even if you're related.
In order to avoid friction in your host's house and maybe have them complaining about you to their hubby or whoever when you've gone be sure they are cool with it.

When you reach your own house, you can be civilized all you want.
Do I have an open floor plan where any guest who walks into my house is privy to my kitchen space? Yes I do.
Would I mind if they walk over and spend some time with me in the kitchen or even cook? No I don't.

But it doesn't mean I expect the same from them.
So just in case,I hold off for a bit and find out if it is ok by them before I go ahead.


The funny thing is, it has nothing to do with the kitchen per se (from my viewpoint). It's not like I'll be angered or bothered with with the guest for daring to cook, or whatever. To me, the idea of the guest going in the kitchen to cook for the home is akin to him/her going out to mow the lawn, or cleaning the house, i.e, what a poor host(ess).

That's how I see it. I suppose it's all about perspective..

Hosts now encourage you to come along with your int'l driving license so you can use a car for shopping and whatnots or lease a car

Some go for as low as 60$ per day(insurance inclusive)

Why should a host be driving around all day or cooking all day

in my experience so far

In the West-- kitchens are open and no biggie
Some even allow use of cars as i noticed there was a comparison of car to kitchen

Here - kitchens are temples and are forbidden to everyone but the hostess
Some even dont allow their husbands to take meat from pot of soup.

The hostess was out of line
She did not like the girl frend and had a superiority complex

Hosts should be accomodating
You allowed them in





Ok...I no get pawa again jare seems the etiquette/manners point is subjective.

Hosts be accomodating, ,guests just carry go grin

Abeg who will host me out of all this excellent hosts we have on NL I will be coming with my 2 year old who is one man ransacker grin grin grin you must not vex if he ransacks your underwear cabinet o tongue grin grin grin
