    I love your kitchen.


    The kitchen at our old house was small 9ft x 6ft - I have one about 2.5 times the size now. But yours looks lovely - I do have finished kitchen envy now.

    Thanks MCI.
    It looks like a disaster zone now as we emptied the pantry contents onto every available surface.

    The walls have been filled and we will paint it tomorrow.

    Blithely chucking out anything that expired before 2013!

    Done and done.
    The pantry looks so much better whitewashed ( sounds so much better than painted, and actually the dulux was a bit flimsy). I have my kitchen table back.

    I need to give myself a talk about random AF purchases and stock rotation.
