She had accepted an invitation for dinner at our house, and it was our chance to impress her with our cooking skills.
I am a chef by profession, although I rarely have the chance to make a meal for someone special.
I do not cook in our own lake house most of the time because I have our meals at the restaurant. She was someone I was hoping to build a future with, and so I went all out with the meal. That afternoon I even passed by the local corporation to chance an whole-house air purifier I had ordered the previous afternoon. The heat pump’s air purification plan cared for the indoor air quality, although I still felt the need to ensure that all was perfect. The same afternoon I made the order, a professional came in for maintenance and duct cleaning. The cleaning was because there was a foul stink coming from the air ducts, which I highly suspect was a dead rodent, and duct sealing to eliminate such an occurrence in the future. It also necessitated an air quality systems unit to rid the lake house of the stink because I did not recognize that the heat and A/C products would get rid of the smell when our guest arrived. I had also updated the air filter with a new washable filter which I found more economically favorable. With the air duct rid of vermin and the control unit reset to achieve the best when it came to indoor comfort, I could comfortably cook for our date and give it our best. Since it was an early dinner, by more than five Saturday, she had arrived, and we enjoyed our meal. I didn’t come apartment to an empty and cold apartment a year later.
