I grew up in a traditional Italian family. The kitchen was the center of the house, especially on weekends when neighbors and family would gather.
Most of the boys would avoid the kitchen but I thoroughly enjoyed being the little cute kid who would be smothered with hugs and kisses by the women crowded into such a confined space.
I was attracted to the laughter and vibrant gestures in the kitchen rather than the dull and predictable living room where the adult males would sit to lazily watch sports.
I did not know that the kitchen would also spawn several sexual affairs after I just turned 18.
I would cut grass for several of my neighbors on Saturdays to raise a little extra money. One neighbor was in her late 30s with a lovely full body which I never really noticed previously in any sexual way.
She would hug and kiss me like all the other close neighbors and friends and hold me close to her ample breasts but I never really considered it erotic in any way; that is until one Saturday afternoon when I went into her house as I usually did after cutting the grass.
Elizabeth's husband worked as an insurance agent on Saturdays so I would help out cutting the lawn in the early morning. After entering the house, I could not see her in the kitchen so I went into the living room expecting to get the usual nice hug and kiss along with my $20.
I was very comfortable in her house and this was not unusual for me to be wandering around on Saturday mornings.
