A feeling of Homeness!: I love Kitchens!

I have this thing for kitchens. For the past several years we have been in and out of the house market, and I can't begin to tell you how important the kitchen is to me. They are my working space. I love to cook more than I like to bake. Maybe its because I feel I have more freedom in creating my own version of the recipe. I think I am more creative and daring in the kitchen than I am in interior design. One down side to living in a finished rental home is that you generally can't change things.

My dream kitchen will have color. Greens and reds make me happy and feel inspired. My first kitchen was lime green (yes I did it on purpose!), and my second kitchen, after we renovated it, was red with a hint of orange. Or was it burnt orange with a hint of red? Anyway it made me happy!
My dream kitchen will have lots of storage space and a pantry off of it. I would love an island in the middle with a bar fridge built into it, and a line of vintage bar stools.

The kitchen in our rental house is better than I have ever had so far, so I will enjoy it to the fullest till the day comes that I will have my own. I would show you a picture of it but, it is not very picture worthy at the moment, I made pasta today, so my kitchen isn't totally spic and span.

For now I will share with you some inspiring kitchen photos. Enjoy!
