I need Kitchen Elves, dammit
Is wanting a little creature available 24/7 to cook and clean for me so wrong?

6. I am the elf too.
The magically shining kitchen, the full cookie jar, the homecooked meal most nights, the ordered takeout on the not-homecooked-meal nights, the fully stocked pantry and refrigerator...all the work of the family elf.

2. No, house elves like to serve.
Too bad there aren't any available.

4. Not dwarves - elves
They still work for Santa no problem.

7. Whatever

just make sure they have their green cards and you pay their employee taxes.

Especially if you plan to be in the Cabinet

5. Not at all. I could use a Kitchen Gnome myself.
Especially now, when I'm sick. x(

13. No, I want one too.
I heard someone on a talk show once claim that there was a ghost in their house that did cleaning. I could live with that too.

14. As long as I don't have to pay payroll taxes on it,

I'd love to have an elf help around here. Preferably with the cleaning as I'd rather do most of the kitchen stuff myself. (I love making stews and soups in winter.)
