Our Not Quite New House (part 1)

So here is the first in the series of pictures of our new home. Please disregard the clutter, for once I am posting pictures that highlight other people's deplorable housekeeping skills. Kind of refreshing, really.

The Kitchen:

The cabinets and all that:



The wall next to the door:



Under the sink:



Over the sink:



The fabulous stove:
















I am in love with that stove. I love it so much I want to give it a name. Maybe Lola. Lola the Stove.Of course, then I will be the crazy lady who named her stove, rather than just the crazy lady who always has sock needles poking through her purse, so maybe I will keep the whole name thing to myself.

We priced some matching refrigerators - let's just say that is an idea that will be biding it's time. I didn't even know you could pay that much for a fridge that didn't come equipped with it's own personal chef. The original (totally awesome) sink is currently sitting in the garage, and the previous owners agreed to leave it for us. I can't wait to install it. (Or at least watch while someone else installs it.) Questions like "How hard can it be to install a sink?" are super fun, aren't they?

I see big things when I look at this kitchen, and it makes me happy just to look at these pictures. Even the ones filled with other people's clutter. Especially those filled with other people's clutter -like I said - very refreshing. I will post more pictures of the house this week, along with some of our grand remodeling plans.
