You might think it's gross... but it's great.
Get a rug. Not just the small kind you put in front of your sink. Like, get a big area rug that covers your kitchen floor.
I can sense the sharp intake of breath many of you took that after reading that advice. Once, I too stood on the grossed-out side of the kitchen rug debate. But that was before I moved into an apartment with corpse-grey, mostly-cracked, truly heinous kitchen tile. As someone who spends a decent amount of time in their kitchen, having a space I enjoy is important to me. My need for a beautiful workspace outweighed the apprehension I felt about covering my kitchen floor in textile.
Even though my first kitchen rug was purchased in a state of desperation, I've since learned the distinct pleasures of having a covered kitchen floor. Besides keeping my feet warm on chilly Brooklyn mornings, my kitchen rug has held up under dinner party prep, baking projects, tipsy houseguests, and the general wear and tear of living with a dog. If anything, having a rug in the kitchen makes me a more careful cook, and reminds me to tidy up more often.
Maybe you've been especially weirded out by this article because you've imagined me standing with my feet planted in a shag rug, pushing tomatoes through a food mill while sipping a glass of red wine. I'm notcrazy. Find a hardy flat-weave rug that has less places for the inevitable spill to seep into, and one that can stand up to a spot cleaning. Opt for natural fibers like wool because they're easier to clean.
