My Kitchen was Clean for 5 Minutes…

I managed to clean up my kitchen enough to get some pictures I deemed acceptable for a blog post. The bottles were washed, the dishes were put away, and the clutter managed to find a new home. The family room, however, looks like a war zone….

One of my favorite parts of our house is our kitchen. I’m SO happy we decided to do the upgraded kitchen which included a Palladin window and 5 extra feet of kitchen space. We opted for Aspen White granite counter tops and had the microwave built into the island. I knew I wanted a chimney range hood eventually (a project we just completed recently), so I did not want a microwave above the range top.
