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!
