The one where she talks about her favorite room

Well, I think we have survived the Last Cold of Spring, and as with labor (and many other things), just when you think you can't take it any more things get better. After a pretty tough night of getting up about every 20 minutes between the three kids, I really thought I was going to die. (Just call me Anne with an "e.") I got about 2 hours of sleep Saturday night, and that was WITH my husband taking a few turns comforting hacking children who can't breath out of their nose so they can't suck their appendages. But enough of that. The kids are on the mend, I'm feeling much better, and we are just trying to keep WH and the baby from getting anything more than a scratchy throat.

Still no dining room curtains. So you may just never see that room unless you visit. But that's not my favorite room anyway, so on to the kitchen.

My bedroom is A favorite, especially since I have a fabulous bed. Our new bedroom is bigger and has almost no clutter which makes it even more of a retreat. However, my all time favorite room would have to be the kitchen. Which makes my mother wonder if we are actually related.

My current kitchen doesn't have enough room for my stainless steel island, the one that makes me feel like the Pioneer Woman when I cook. But I'm getting over that. If you like to cook, there are endless possibilities of creativity in this little room, and since almost everyone loves to eat, it's a place for providing a daily source of happiness to my family. I'll have to wax eloquent on my love of the kitchen another time.

Here are the only things worth noting about my kitchen:
These are my window mistreatments. My old curtains tacked up to my new kitchen window. Nothing spectacular but it took me 2 minutes and they make me happy.

The fridge of my dreams. I've never really had a dream about a fridge with a freezer on the bottom, but if I had to choose any model it would have been this one, and we don't even own the house! (My dream fridge of this make and model would, however, have a working icemaker.)

And my new little island where all my important work takes place. Tomorrow is grocery day, and I haven't had a two-week trip since we moved so I need to go finish my list. Do you see that amazing looking Double-Caramel Turtle Cake on the cover of that magazine? It is delicious in real life.
