I do hope you are able to renovate your kitchen as I can relate to a kitchen not having enough space for more than one cook. It never hurts to dream and dreams can come true :)Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-55120048315057497382008-09-03T16:16:00.000-04:002008-09-03T16:16:00.000-04:00Thanks Tammy, Meg and Sandra :)Thanks Tammy, Meg and Sandra :)Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-23416894234776640872008-09-03T16:14:00.000-04:002008-09-03T16:14:00.000-04:00Thanks Lynne :) Pull out shelving would be really...Thanks Lynne :) Pull out shelving would be really nice. I have a large walk-in pantry, thank goodness. It takes a lot of pressure off the kitchen. Magazines organize to maximize the effect for photo shoots but sometimes the layout is not always practical in a busy kitchen.Garden Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560748179792613782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-6576365385965557842008-09-03T16:10:00.000-04:002008-09-03T16:10:00.000-04:00Thanks Mrs Mecomber!

And yo...You and your DH have done an excellent job. And you have managed to keep your sanity too! Well...mostly. I admire your skills, perseverence, initiative,motivation and especially your love and respeoct for each other. My husband and I will retire to family property, where my parents currently live and lived in the house my Grandfather built until 2 months before his death. The kitchen is where I learned to cook and can, but my dream is to expound on what my grandparents had. Papa had hoped to have a walk in cooler but it became a pantry for lack of fund and time and remained that way. I would love to have it a walk in cooler just as he envisioned. I want to enlarge the kitchen so it is not a "2-b--- kitchen"(think your rear end)that my grandmother, mother, and aunts always called it when they were trying to fix big family holiday dinners. I would also like to have a small powder room just off the kitchen to run to during critical cooking times. I have dreams and they may end up just being dreams, but they keep me smiling and hoping.gramminonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15359921418376010810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-25654468318037111272008-09-02T11:42:00.000-04:002008-09-02T11:42:00.000-04:00It really looks good, lots of work but worth it.Sa...It really looks good, lots of work but worth it.<BR/>SandraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27248498.post-46732530350063065562008-09-01T21:12:00.000-04:002008-09-01T21:12:00.000-04:00It looks beautiful!
