       | Sounds like what you want is open a cafe!

       | This seems like a big part of the problem, and much more so if
       | you have a single huge, open room that combines all living areas.
       | 
       | Having said that, proper use of a living room requires a lot of
       | prep work so that you don't need to be up doing other stuff (like
       | if you're in a kitchen) and can actually relax with company. The
       | use of a living room would have been more straightforward when
       | servants were present.
