    Greetings,

    I've recently taken a shine to advancing my cooking skills. As I've been grilling up new and exciting dishes, particularly the fishy ones and the ones utilizing various parts of our furry friends, something occurred to me. I've got nowhere to store these culinary delights. Sure, I could stuff them in a chest. But surely the flies and maggots would make short work of them--long before I have a chance to use them. So I thought it would be nice to have an icebox. Something along the lines of our earthly antique iceboxes of the early 1900's:

    I'd certainly be willing to lay down some gold for such a practical add-on. What do y'all think?

    Cheers,
    Cornfellow

    Good idea. In Rift's End, Governor @Kvow Triumvir has built huge freezers in the crafting area for the preservation of perishables using the ice blocks.

    The only downside for Portalarium is they would sell fewer outhouses if they provided containers to keep perishables fresh. We will see what is more important to them - the health of avatars or cash flow. :D

    Both the elven wardrobes work great for meat lockers you can place the items on the shelves. Still waiting on ice that will fit in them. The big ice set is too big for this application

    I thought Budner already has been putting his meat in the box, no?

    I have been converting a keep arena basement into a ice house. Here is just one pic where I am using to store meat and fish.

    You can see the meat and fish in some spots appears to be partly in the ice itself. :)

    I just had to come here to make sure @Budner wasn't snoozing... :cool:

    And to like your thinking on this subject, @Alexandra Cornfellow ! But..... I'd rather have a "smoker" of some sort, as currently I don't have to worry about cold storage - since meat, so far, doesn't go bad - and I want to sell my awesome smoked Obsidian Stag strips !!!!! ;)
