I handwave a looooot of stuff with "shards make it happen", tbh.
Like my character has a chilling cupboard (fridge) powered by ice shards, a bath/shower that can be heated more or less instantaneously with fire shards, and, yeah, indoor plumbing, since the housing items we're provided with seems to imply it exists.
His oven is an Aga-like construction that's always on & therefore doesn't need to be pre-heated. I think it's powered with regular ol' firewood, though it can probably be done with fire shards too.
I say that the shards are by far the most expensive thing on his groceries list, and they're also the first thing to drop off if he's short on wages that month. Because of their huge versatility and relative (relative) rarity, as well as how comparitively difficult they are to import/export due to... you know... MSQ occurrences, I figure they're probably pretty expensive as convenience materials go. It explains why regular joes don't seem to use them as a matter of course.
