La Mia Cucina

We have spent most of today lazily lounging in cozy warmth as a nor'easter storm has unleashed its frozen fury outside.  Always one for comfort food on stormy days, I've made pancakes, nachos, grilled cheese sandwiches, and chocolate chip cookies (although not all for the same meal!)

All of this work has really made me appreciate the kitchen we designed for this house.  I love the open shelves and deep cabinets, where I have easy access to baking accessories.

The sink is deep and wide, and of course the dishwasher is such a time saver!

We still have a few projects left:  a door to hide the cluttered pantry, paint for the trim, a kitchen island, and a sliding barn door that will go on the wall to the left of the opening below:

At the end of the day, we especially enjoy a nice cup of coffee (or cold iced tea in summer) in the little nook at the end of the room.

Buon appetito!
