Here you go...
(FYI: Fridge is just to the left of this photo at a right angle.)
Dear neighbors, I hope you don't mind watching us wash our dishes. We quite enjoy spying on your dinner time! ;)
One of the few bowls of REAL fruit I have in the house!
FAKE fruit and an apron WAY too cute to actually cook in. I have ruined many a shirt in favor of preserving the apron - a wedding gift from my "trendy" friend Amanda.
And the infamous... "Wall of Fame." (Sorry friends - I hope I didn't invade anyone's privacy too much here!)
I like our kitchen a lot - especially the bead board back-splash (say that six times fast) and the color... Neither of which we picked out. (We bought from a family with great taste! *Many of you have asked for the names of paint colors recently. I promise, I'm not avoiding those questions on purpose. I just don't know! A lot of our stuff was already done when we moved in, and often I'll have a color custom done at Lowe's to match something else. Sorry!)
BUT, in our next place... I would definitely NOT want white cabinets/appliances! Those blasted things are NEVER clean! Not good for a slightly obsessive compulsive scrubber...
Finally, although it's not very big, there is plenty of space for what I do in it. I don't think I'll ever be one for investing TONS in a gourmet kitchen... I'm really more of a "living room" kind-of gal. Small, bright, non-white, and stainless steel for me please! (Check out more kitchens at Kelly's Korner!)
Oh, and a BONUS:
A close-up of the hearty beef-stew my cute "House Husband" made for dinner last night all by himself. I realize that a close-up of stew isn't exactly pretty; but, I wanted to document this to show our kids one day! ;)
We're off this afternoon to Northern Virginia for my Aunt Trisha's memorial service. Please say a prayer for my family... That there will be peace and sweet time together! Love ya'll!

Love the backsplash!! Great kitchen!
ReplyDeleteYou know I love your kitchen! Although I certainly wouldn't call myself "trendy," even with the quotation marks :) I'm going to have to get you a not-quite-as-cute apron that you'll actually wear-- I have about three and love wearing them! Thinking of you and your family. Love.
