My family room gets way too sizzling in winter.

I honestly love to cook.

I’ll spend hours making a recipe from scratch.

The problem is, it gets honestly sizzling in our new family room in our new house, especially in the Winter time with the central oil furnace going. As much as I love to cook, I don’t love to sweat unless I am getting paid! So, I turn the temperature control on the central oil furnace down when I am cooking, but someone in the home inevitably turns it back up again, but really, is it so difficult to just put on a sweatshirt plus socks? Especially when I am slaving over a gourmet brunch that everyone will enjoy. There is no room in the family room for a fan, unless I get our wife to install a ceiling fan, but who puts a ceiling fan in the family room? The family room is just too small plus the window isn’t large enough for a fan. I’ve even considered putting an air conditioner in the window, but, of course, one wouldn’t fit either. I guess I could try a portable air conditioner, but, again, there is no room in the family room. The family room is hot in the summer time too, but it gets especially sizzling in the Winter time with the central oil furnace going. I’ve decided to just start opening the window when I am cooking during the winter. I don’t know if it makes the central oil furnace kick in more, but, at this point, I don’t care. I just don’t love being sizzling plus if they want to continue to love their gourmet brunchs, I need to cool off the family room.
