Heart of the Home

Shelia - over at "Note Songs" has invited everybody to a party! And you know I just love a party. Now she wants a peek at everybody's kitchen. Well, my kitchen is a most humble one....but it's still the heart of our home...so here goes!



This is a view of the kitchen from our dining area -- we have an open floor plan and most of you have been in my dining room for Tablescape Thursdays -- you've probably gotten a few peeks at the kitchen before...but today...it's all about the kitchens!



This little bar is the only thing that seperates the kitchen from the dining room. My little half round table makes the transition from one area to the other.



You can see the ceiling beams and my little microwave/coffee area.



My window view from the kitchen sink.



This may be hard to see because of the sun shining into the window.



That's a little better.



The kitchen sink.



My little rooster rug where I stand when I'm washing dishes.


Uh oh.....looks like Nana's cookie jar is empty! I think Poppa Daddy's been sneaking all the cookies!



My mother gave me these canisters 25 years ago. I still love them.



Soon we'll be cooking up a storm! All decked out with Halloween dish towels.



Another view.



Counting my blessings.


The pooch corner.



This door leads to the laundry room and downstairs power room.



Counting sheep.



The "wine celler". Cookbooks are stored in the cabinet underneath.



This little area leads into the greatroom.



The heatpump is on one side and the pantry is on the other.


Our kitchen table.



Pictures above the table.




Phone and message center and then we're back to the dining area. Hope you've enjoyed a peek at my little kitchen -- be sure to visit "Note Songs" on Wednesday the 13th to see all the kitchens across blogland...I'm sure there are going to be some amazing ones. I'm looking forward to some peeking myself!

See ya!
