Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  I te raumati o mua, mō tētahi rōpū i te kāinga i Devon, i whakaaro mātou he mea whakamere te hanga i tētahi oumu oneone e keri ai koe i tētahi poka i roto i te kari, ka whakaoho i te ahi, ka tunu kai ai - i tēnei take, he reme - i te whenua. Engari i te 7 i te ahiahi, ka mārama kāore te kai i te tunu tere rawa. Kua tīmata kē ngā tamariki ki te whakakeke. He maha aku mangai hei whangai, engari kahore he mea hei whakatakoto ki runga i nga rihi. Ki te kore aku manuhiri e haere ki te kāinga i te hiakai, me mahi wawe ahau i tētahi mea. I rere atu ahau ki roto ki taku whare kai, a ka manawa manawa. I runga i nga papa he nui nga kai hei whangai i te rima mano. He pono, ko taku tuahine a Sofie e tawai tonu ana ka taea e mātou te ora i te hotoke karihi ki te ihirangi o taku whare kai. Ko Kirstie Allsopp (i te pikitia) e kii ana ko tana whare taonga pai te whakapehapeha o tona kaainga, ana i hangaia e ia tetahi whare taonga i muri i tana kitenga i tana kaainga tuarua kaore i tae mai me tetahi kua oti te hanga. Kāore au i te mea he mea e whakapehapeha ana a Jamie Oliver ki te whakaingoa i tōna ingoa, engari mai i ngā momo kai, tae atu ki te tōmato, te paraoa, te waiu, te tīhi, te pīni me te hinu tīhi, e toru ngā momo ranu i hangaia e au, ā, i whakahaeretia ki te rīwai. Kāore he tangata i mate i te hiakai. Na taku whare kai i ora ai te rā. E ai ki te rangahau, kua hoki mai te whare kai i te makariri. E ai ki a John Lewis, ko te haurua o ā rātou kiritaki e hoko ana i ngā kīhini hou e hiahia ana ki te whakauru i tētahi rūma ki roto i tō rātau hoahoa. I te wiki kua hipa, i whakaahuahia a David Cameron e whakarite ana i tētahi kai i roto i tana kīhini i Downing Street. I te taha o tana pouaka makariri nui rawa atu, he toa iti, engari he tino pai te hanga, he mea katoa mai i te Marmite ki te chutney mango. E ai ki ētahi, nā Downton Abbey te whakaoranga, me ngā whakaaturanga whakaaweawe o Mrs Patmore me te kaiawhina kai kai Daisy i roto i to rātau whare kai. He pono, ko te kupu <unk>larder<unk> e whakaaro ana koe ki nga ruma makariri i kitea i roto i nga whare rangatira penei i te Highclere Castle (kei reira Downton e kiriata ana), i te nuinga o te wa e pakaru ana i te kai tote, i nga peariki, i nga rongoa me te taro hou. Engari kāore anō koe kia waiho hei ariki hei rangatira mō tētahi whare taonga. I ngā tau rima tekau, ahakoa te whare hou tino iti...
E kī ana a Kirstie Allsopp kāore i taea e ia te ora i waho i tōna whare taonga pai. I mua i te wā i kitea ai ngā pouaka whakamātao i te nuinga o ngā whare he whare rokiroki. E whakaatu ana ngā rangahau kua hoki mai rātau ki te kāhua nā Downton Abbey.
