my kitchen...

I was going to wait till tomorrow, after Don edit's about half of the pictures but..... I've waited for 6 mos to show you all my kitchen and I just can't wait til tomorrow!

when we bought the house, the kitchen was painted Pepto-bismal pink, dusty pink formica counters, all white appliances and sink and no island. I hated that kitchen, big time!

first we painted and replaced the sink and applicances. then I found Italian porcelean tiles, 18 x 18" that look like stone. Don did all the tile work. the island is a John Boo's hard rock maple piece and I can seat 6 - 7 around it. I should have the cabinet doors replaced in a few months with a simple, hardwood door and we'll be putting in a hardwood floor

in the summer.

the kitchen is now warm and welcoming and the reason I've got back to cooking again smileys/smile.gif

annnd, the reason there are so many pics of me right now is cause I usually won't let Don photograph me cause he's a perfectionist and wants to pose me, which annoys the crap outa me and I usually walk away. I convinced him to use the speed shutter and let me play with the camera and we had a blast last night!

Beautiful Randi. How I envy you your big kitchen. I miss mine so much (m)

since we moved into an apt. with a closet size kitchen and so little storage space. Guess I have too much "stuff", but hate to part with any of it. Enjoy and have fun.

 
Wow! That is one magnificent kitchen! Congratulations, Randi, and tell Don he did a great job on

the tile work! Now you both should come over here and help me completely redo my lousy, ugly, falling apart 1960's kitchen!

 
Very nice kitchen! I love the fish aquarium. Except there is only one fish?

In that big tank? Looks lonely!

 
LOL, my love of sushi preceeds me. there are 5 goldfish in the big tank. I've

been having some probs keeping it balanced and head to "strip" it down. the 10 gal tank has neons and a betta and a little catfish. they are all my "aqua angels" smileys/smile.gif

 
What a gorgeous big kitchen! I'll bet it will have some stories to

tell! It makes me miss my big kitchen in Scottsdale. Have fun with it!

 
I especially liked the "Vanna White" shots! Very cool kitchen...keep us posted on the updates.

We finished our kitchen a year last September after living in a "tract house" kitchen for 34 years. So I know what you mean about loving the new one. Our old kitchen had wood grain contact paper over pressed wood as the cabinets>>>ugh!
CONGRATS!

 
Really Beautiful

Randi, your kitchen is really beautiful. I love it. I so miss my big kitchen and wonderful appliances. I hope you enjoy yours for many years to come.
