I had to cheat.

A keeping room is an area just off the kitchen of a home. Keeping rooms date back to Colonial times when families would sleep in that area when the rest of the house was cold. Since the area could be heated by the kitchen stove, it often provided the only heated place in the house.

A keep sounds like it could be a cellar, where they "Keep" their food, where it is cool.

This goes back to the middle ages.  It refers to the tower where the "lord" of the area lived, I believe.
