  Nancy Meyers doesn't create fantasies about romance; she creates fantasies about class status. That's why, in her movies, kitchens are so much more important than bedrooms.

  Nancy Meyers and Nora Ephron both have this cozy, cluttered feel in their movies that make them feel so REAL, and lived in! Its something that elevates their movies, and something that I feel like is missing from a lot of modern romcoms (and modern homes in general) Its not just that I want to experience a whirlwind romance, I also want to do so from my impossibly chic (but slightly messy) Manhattan apartment, or seaside bungalow! Like you said, the depth they are able to portray of these characters by just their surroundings is an amazing aspect of their beautiful films. And since we won't have any more Nora Ephron films (rest in piece you beauty) we NEED more Nancy Meyers!

  Two sinks, in case you have two knives you plan on using for another sandwich later.

  I was 8 years old when Father of Bride came out and I distinctly remember how the house, esp the kitchen, made me feel. Those feeling still ring true today. I think that's a testament to Nancy's ability as a story teller.

  My dream kitchen (  my dream house honestly ) is still the kitchen from Practical Magic. It felt so warm, and airy,  like magic could happen there.

  Nancy Meyers just knew what we wanted in kitchens before we did.  Her living rooms aren't too shabby, either.

  Your videos quickly became some of my favorites. I love your voice and pacing and humor and interest.

  IMO, Father of the Bride is the best kitchen. It’s cozy, lived in, and truly stands the test of time. It’s a 90s movie but you don’t look at that kitchen and think it’s stuck in just one decade. It also doesn’t feel like an extravagant kitchen. It’s the perfect blend!

  I can see why she doesn't want to be known for it, but it is interesting ... and I agree, let her cook. I always need more Nancy Meyer movies in my life.

  When not only is there a kitchen island, it is a second kitchen island with a second sink, that is fancy.

  There are few things I love more than a Kendra Gaylord commentary, made of one part takedown, one part envy, one part admiration, and one part hilarious petty.  I wish you posted more often, but it's always a delicious treat when you do.  Thank you!
