Welcome to Bonnie and Parke's Bitchin Kitchen!
Woo Hoo! We did it!
Our kitchen is no longer a Pit of Despair!
No longer does the floor slope 6 inches!
When we cook, we look in the pot with wonder, to see the soup is now level!
It is hard to believe this little kitchen was once 3 tiny rooms when we bought the house....
2007 will go down in history as the year we ACTUALLY FINISHED a room in our house!! The year in review: |

Parke kind of freaked out when I painted the walls 5 different colors! But he likes it now. These are the cabinet boxes he built... |
||||
And now ladies and gentlemen, let us present the finished room: (This is the part where we cry and jump around hysterically, like on TV.) |

Parke made the walnut cabinets out of a dead tree he cut down from his Grandma Murphy's farm in 1982. Each door and drawer is book- matched. That means Parke split the board and glued it together, so it looks like a mirror-image. That Parke. Can you believe him?

Here we have Aunt Bonnie's iPod. It holds 200 songs, and if you wanna move it you'll need five people! After I cleaned the drywall dust off the records, I glued glass blobs on to the juke box - oh, the beauty! Desmond's favorite song is FunkyTown. G7. Yamni likes D5 - I Think I Love You! |

Just look at that wood - can you believe how pretty? It grows out of the earth! |

I made the glass drawer pulls.  |

Behold the Cat Shrine! This is the window the cats look out of to see who is home. I'll say it again: IT IS REALLY FUN Try it! |

Ever since my surgery, I really cherish my thyme. |
