My fridge and my stove are on opposite ends of a long kitchen. This is quietly maddening and very inefficient when I'm cooking. Why would anyone do that?? I also have the same problem with textured walls ans stove splashes, although "backsplash" is new terminology for me! But I guess I want that!

Anyway, I obviously did not get to design my kitchen. I don't even have a garbage disposal or a place to install a dishwasher. *sob*
