16. One of the first things I did when I bought this house

Was take out the divided kitchen sink and replace it with a deep, wide, undivided one. After a lifetime of those crappy divided sinks that nothing fits into, it's so nice to be able to wash my cookware without drama.

My range is dual-fuel; gas cooktop and electric ovens. Works out well with our frequent power outages or "Crap! The tank's empty again!" (We're out of range of gas lines, so we've got a huge propane tank, like everyone else up here ... but we don't have a landline, so the tank can't call in when it's getting low.)
