Growing up, I was mostly in the kitchen with my mom in the evenings.
I would help her cook and prepare meals for the week.
I didn’t mind it because I would catch up with my mom and talk about our days. I would tell her about the latest drama in school and she would tell me about what she would experience at work. My favorite meal to help her prepare was lasagna. It would turn out to be really good then we would do the dishes and clean up. Doing the dishes was fine but we had no garbage disposal. So we had to scrape all of the food on the plate in the trash. My parents were talking about installing one so I mentioned it to them one night. Then after a few weeks, they called a plumber to come and install one. Because there is a decent amount of people in my family, our plumber recommended installing a 1hp model. This is because since there’s more people in our home, there is more food waste. He told us that he was going to install a 1hp model that contained stainless steel parts. Stainless steel is corrosion resistant and will last longer. The plumber told my parents that the stainless steel will cost more. They didn’t care because they wanted the disposal to last longer because it would be used after every meal. Plus it would eliminate future repairs because of a better quality garbage disposal. Now after every dinner that we make we will be using our new disposal.
