A Fun Surprise!



This blog is really quite new, but I think I have shared a bit about the sweet cottage that we live in. We purchased the home from our neighbor next door who had completely gutted the house and built it back up, restoring lots of the original vintage character. During the process, the kitchen of the home was used in an episode of HGTV's "Kitchen Renovations" and along with that was photographed by Better Homes & Gardens. Well, low and behold, MY kitchen is featured in the current issue of Remodel "The Kitchen Issue", a Better Homes & Gardens special interest publication. I tried to get images on the BHG website but was unable to locate any, so if you want to see my kitchen before I lived in it, check out pages 68-75 in this issue. If you want to see what the kitchen looks like today, I took this picture this afternoon. Pretty much the same with a few changes (lighting and replacing the steam oven with a convection/mircrowave).


I love my kitchen. As is usually the case, the kitchen was the biggest reason we purchased the home - that and the mudroom (I will show you that too someday!).

As a pretend decorator and lover of all shelter mags, I often have fantasized about my home being magazine worthy. This little suprise this week, I expect, will be the closest I get.
