My title is a sad reference to a line from the movie Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead. Anywho, my kitchen is finally done and I am in LOVE. My kitchen was sad and ugly before but now it's so beautiful. My husband and I keep saying we feel like we broke into someone else's house and are using their kitchen. I can't even use it comfortably as I am not ready to break it in "Sabreena Style". I am not one to do dishes immediately after a meal, they will usually sit for a few hours if not overnight but now I feel like I have to do them or ruin the new sink. Though I love this kitchen this new urge to keep it nice is really cramping my half-ass housekeeping style I have worked so hard to perfect. I am sure this temporary OCD will wear off and I will get back to the lazy old me but for now I will slack off in other departments like laundry or dusting to make up for the extra work I am doing in the food containment area of our house.
Here are some pictures of the new kitchen:

ReplyDeleteI SO want a double-door fridge with a bottom freezer. I love that.
Thank you Karen! I thought it would be a pain to have the drawer at first but it actually gives more storage and organization. o glad the project is done.
ReplyDeletewow, it came out awesome!!
ReplyDeletei am sure it now was worth the mess and last penny spent... it looks great.
ENJOY
OMG! It's BEAUTIFUL!!!! Wow! It's really fantastic! Congrats on being DONE!
ReplyDeleteIt was all worth the mess but it drove me crazy. I will not be eating fast food for a very long time which is very disconcerting to my children. Now I just have to get used to it as it is the nicest kitchen I have ever owned.
ReplyDeleteI love the cigarettes on the counter. I mean, the counter...
ReplyDeleteLOL! Yeah, the cigarettes add that white trash ghetto fabulous vibe that was missing when the kitchen was finished. If I showed you a pic from today the cigarettes wold be there. We are nicotene fiends.
ReplyDeleteWe are re-doing our kitchen. We have one wall left, the stove and cabinets. My husband re-did it all. He put in this huge pantry and island. I miss a stove. We are going to get a gas stove with a convection oven. I use an electric skillet and a toaster oven. Your kitchen looks great. Love the floor.
ReplyDeletethat is a pretty swank kitchen, if i do say so myself...
ReplyDeleteIt looks so good. I'm loving the floor!!!! I can't wait to do ours!
