We have basically a home kitchen set up. One fridge (we donated a
bigger one than what was there originally), a small microwave, 2
stoves, both donated--one newish (around 2010 model), one older (shows
the coils) and a standard double sink. New folks, when they took over, cleaned out a lot of odds and ends (but still usable) stuff, did keep
the set of pots we'd donated about 10 years ago.

Looks good. I try to get an idea of allergies, etc if I'm cooking for a group so would have to check for dairy issues with this one. We had a family in church at one time who had a child extremely allergic to milk and milk products so I had to be careful when cooking, knowing he would
be eating whatever was being served. Made his day when he was 3 and had never eaten ice cream--we made a mango sorbet that he devoured. The
look of sheer delight on his face--an ice cream that he could eat--was priceless!
I have a grand nephew who had that problem. Couldn't do any milk
except his mother's. I told my niece to check with the pediatritian
for a usable form of Lact Aid - which proved to be a workable deal.
We used to go thru a lot of that. Steve has to watch his dairy intake
but can have some now, without Lact Aid. When he was younger, he needed
it with any dairy product. Our younger daughter had a milder
intolerance until a rough bout of mono as an early teen messed up her system. Don't know how she's doing now. We still keep Lact Aid or a generic on hand, grabbing it whenever we have baked (or otherwise)
beans.
My house mate is mildly lactose intolerant - and he didn't know
about Lact Aid until after he came to live here. I went down the
Walgreens and bought him a supply and also turned him on to live
