making our guests happy...

It took at least 12 trips to Lowe's before I was satisfied with the layout of the new kitchen and what cabinets we were purchasing and where they would go and what I would use them for and how many drawers I wanted...and then at the very end...I talked to the designer over the phone and changed one cabinet around and lost the cabinet I really needed... 

There is no where to set a trash can in the kitchen.  There are no niches, no end of the cabinet available, no pantry closet to stick it in...  Since October I have put a plastic bag in the kitchen sink for all the trash acquired during cooking and then just tied it up and tossed it into the trash can...which sat in the laundry room...behind an always closed door...   It drove my girls crazy...it drove my sister crazy....it drove everyone (but me) crazy...

 TA DA!!!

This morning before I got up Rich put together two more chairs for the dining room...

we retired the bench that sat on the other side..

And today is Spaghetti Sauce day....

with meat

without meat

And the meatballs are ready to fry...  so that's all for today...

Did you notice the new blog header?  We are on the Missouri flyway for Canada Geese and every few days we get a flock of them landing in the pond...
