Because he shares his work space with his home, Tim is able to work right up until lunch, or even start cooking while he finishes up a project. Even on the long days, he tries to set aside an hour for lunch and for dinner. With the taco meat already heating on the hot plate, Tim was able to go straight from work to retrieving his various toppings from the fridge. Tim’s kitchen includes a shelf pantry, fridge, microwave, tabletop electric oven and a hotplate - and of course, a coffee pot.
