The Kitchen

For the kitchen we added the peninsula, island, double wall ovens, and morning room.  Now many of you know that we redid our current kitchen in 2010 and added a ton of counter and cabinet space.  Looking at houses has been a challenge because none seemed to have the same amount of cabinet space.  Adding the peninsula and island helped with the counter space... and we finally have double wall ovens.  The Thanksgiving cooking should be less stressful for Rob (less of me saying get up and help!) and Christmas cookies should run like a factory.

The selections:

 

Kitchen backsplash (Baja cream tumbled Travertine) Looks like the tumbled marble we have in our kitchen now J



 

Kitchen Countertops (level 2 granite Giallo Fiorito).  Rob chose the countertop since he is STILL to this day reminding me that he made the selection of the granite in our old kitchen. 



 

Kitchen Cabinets (Timberlake Rushmore Painted Maple Hazelnut Glazed).

OK, those who know me are looking at this cabinet and thinking.. really?  Kim made this choice?  Where is the cherry?  Well, originally we selected the Cherry Bordeaux cabinets.. but we went into another model and saw these in the kitchen along with really eye catching wood floors (more to come on those) and I was sold on the floors and the cabinets.  Rob is still asking me to this very day if I'm sure.. but let me tell you the floors and the cabinets together were eye candy.  So goodbye Cherry Bordeaux hello Painted Maple Hazelnut Glaze!
