A soufflé pan would be awesome.

They also have the sword they hide under the counter. Maybe the oven's in the back with the coffee beans and the monster spiders.

Espresso machines are really expensive so while Dora may be a bitch at times, being a bitch about an espresso machine breaking is more then understandable, it is practically required.

Could you give us a price range on those?  I tried looking up how much one would cost.  Most of the small, residential use ones I saw were roughly $100, but I did see one of similar size to Dora's priced around $6,000.

She has been worried about money lately.  Foreshadowing perhaps?  Finally get around to firing Sarah perhaps?  Though the ethical firing would be of the most recently aquired employee, Penelope.

Though she shouldn't have to close the shop over this.  She can still make coffee and tea, but no espresso, cappuccino, or latte.

$6,000 sounds about right, though if business is picking up or the shop just wants to get a sexxy new (read: not so new) machine the price can get up to 10,000-13,000. The shop I work for has the Marzocco Linea EE 4 Group and it set us back about 10,000...and that was a steal. Also, depending on whether or not Dora is able to do the actual setup some places will add a setup fee which can be costly. Though I personally would hope that Dora, as the owner of a coffee shop, would be able to perform the basic setup...

I am thinking way to much in to this aren't I...

Also, the $100 dollar home use espresso machines are glorified crap-tastic toys. Steer clear at all cost...pun not-so-intended
