  • But now that I’ve said this, does it make you feel unsettled about it?

    Considering that rice cookers are expensive where you are from, I suppose it is a sensible choice. I can’t exactly say I’m unsettled. Let’s suppose these devices being much cheaper relative to local salaries and there being plenty space for a rice cooker, then I’d be unsettled.

I wouldn’t know where to begin and I take it it takes a few weeks to get a basic structure going that feels comfortable. I’ll try it though! Thank you for the good suggestion
