Well, here it is. The Big Reveal. I just know you have been so anxious to see it all! At least, that's what I tell myself.

The first picture is a shot of the kitchen from the living room.


Now, this one is standing in the kitchen almost in the exact opposite spot, only on the kitchen side looking into the living room. I love the backsplash behind the sink and my fancy tall fixture, don't you?

I did away with my weird little pull out and back pantry area and gained a new desk area that I am crazy about. It just looks cozier to me.

This view is from the new desk area towards the hall and the dining room.


AND NOW.................for those of you who remember the blog about wanting and needing a little nook for me for reading and studying...........................................
............................................... get ready to be................................so............................
envious! Here it is-My Little Reading Nook:



I hope you enjoyed the tour. And, I hope that I get to have each and everyone of you at some time in my kitchen for a meal or a snack or a cup of coffee. I might even let you sit in my reading nook chair!

Your kitchen is so gorgeous! It looks a lot different than before (from the pics I saw) doesn't it? We are hoping to do our kitchen with our tax return next year.

Melinda, I should have put up a before picture. Yes, it is very different. My cabinets were white and I had laminate, not granite. Thanks for the compliments, girlies!

V, it's simply fantastic!!! I'm so very happy for you! Can I come for a cup of tea instead of coffee? Or, I could just join Terry for fried tacos. :)

Even as I viewed the pics, I prayed over your kitchen - that God would protect it from any more disaster, and that much laughter and love would fill that place. You are truly blessed, friend! Love you much!!!!!
