I applaud writing IF from what I assume was scratch, nice!
Unfortunately I can't simply take saucepan, and take saucepan from cupboard informs me that there is no cupboard on the counter, which has me a bit stuck.
Im kind of aware my choice of command names is pretty cryptic, there was absolutely 0 playtesting involved. Moving items around the room uses the move command, take is for getting contents out of a container.
In hindsight I regret the decision that you need to move items to the counter to use them anyway, I don't think it adds anything.
