Day 91: A Picture Isn't Worth What it Used to Be.

The whole a 'picture is worth a thousand words' thing is grossly overstated when the pictures don't really pick up the color and size and general awesomeness of the thing.

Note: And it goes without saying that my words are worth extra on account of the fact that I have lots of important things to say with my words. And to say with a flair, yes.

So here are a few pictures anyhow.

THE KITCHEN
On the far wall (see the ladder?) is the compartment for my gorgeous refrigerator with pantry and storage and whatnot. On the far wall sits my cooktop and two ovens with a mosaic tile blacksplash up the whole wall. There are two islands. The larger is the prep island and the closer is the 'other island'. It doesn't have a name yet. But it will, oh yes.

THE KITCHEN
From the piano nook. That's the stairway straight ahead as well.

FROM THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE
This shot was taken after entering the house. Notice the kitchen to the left. Everything else is to the right. But pictures are not worth that many words, so you can't SEE it, you see.

THE STAIRWELL
Here's where the whole color thing is hard to see. It's Classic Gray on the left and Thunder on the other two walls. But you kinda need to see it.

In other news, I have concluded that today, August 6, 2012, is the last day that I will cook anything in my laundry room. I've had it up to here with dishes in the laundry sink and laundry in the kitchen and using the washing machine for a drying rack and sweating over a hot cooktop. It's over, folks!

Yup. That's the fat lady you hear singing.

Heck, yes!
