Kitchen

Every kitchen Bob and I have ever had has been quirky. There's always been something odd about it; A drawer in an odd place, a funny nook, a wonky floor. This place is no exception. In the pictures it looks larger than it really is. Once you're in there it shrinks. The dishwasher is in a weird location, all the way in the back in that weird nook. Only one person can unload/load it at a time.

I got used to all the space in the Seattle kitchen very quickly. We had cabinets that were still empty. So when we got here we downsized quite a bit, I'm still getting rid of stuff. Which is for the best really. How much stuff do two people really need?

So here it is:








I'd like to do something interesting with that arch. I'm not sure what yet. Maybe a huge wall decal or something.

Did anyone notice my mixer changed colors? It totally did. I sold my old one and bought a new one before we left Seattle. I had orange mixer envy for a looooong time.

  3. I love the crisp white with the color accents. I've always lived in a home with frustrating quirks, my kitchen is tiny and seemingly impossible to keep clean. I'm envious of the size of yours and the big, sunny window :)

  4. Van- I've ALWAYS wanted a window above this sink. This is the first time I've ever had one.

  5. It's really nice, bright and simple. You are right about the space over the arch, it is crying out for something.

  6. I really like it, especially how all the aqua and orange pieces look so fresh against the white!

  8. Louryne- Those are from Target, I got them last year. I just saw some in the same color but round for $10 there yesterday.
