The kitchen is my favorite room in our house.
I love that we were able to do everything we wanted to when we renovated.
(I really do have the most magnificent husband ever)
I could spend hours here, planning meals, baking, and talking with family and friends who sit at the bar while I work.
The kitchen is directly adjacent to the great room.
It is where we spend most of our time when we are home.
We are blessed to have boys who like to hang around their parents (granted their parents are incredibly cool... - I can write that because they NEVER read my blog...).
It is also where I display most of my collections.
(my boys DO NOT understand why I would want said collections...)
Have a lovely evening mes amies~

Seriously, your kitchen is AMAZING! WOW! LOVE IT! I'm on my way over to prep a meal with you!
I've just met you and I too think you have the most wonderful husband in the world (if he gave you a kitchen like that!. Beautiful home.
I'm dying for white carrara marble counter tops someday. Do you find them hard to maintain?
Oooooooo, ma petite chou...I'm dying over here! That is one of the most beautiful settings I've ever seen. Why would I imagine anything else for your abode? I'm so excited to see it in person.
You ARE a stylist and don't ever say you aren't.
(I now have ideas for my vintage cameras) :)
oxoxoxo

a few things for you...
first, how could you look at the photos you take and think that you need someone else to do the styling for you?!
second, that's your FOR REAL house?! my jaw is sill on the floor!!
three, HI :) You're amazing
that is all for now...
If I didn't love you so much I'd hate you for that kitchen. Kiss Kiss. ;0)
Very dreamy kitchen! Great touches you have styled as well.Show us More.................Thanks~Kim
Your home is amazing! I'm drooling!
Seriously though, how do you keep white sofas with boys? I have three boys, 9, 6, and 2. Is it just an age thing? Will they outgrow the messy stage? :) Can i just move in with you!?!
Your kitchen is so stunning!!!
Dreamy...your kitchen is like a spa...I wouldn't want to leave it either...
Thanks for sharing!
Lisa
Wow,
I love your home! I do recall you having an earlier post about needing a stylist. What was that about???? You are a stylist! When is your book coming out? I will buy it. Your pictures are amazing. I would love to cook in that kitchen! Where did you get your pillows? I love those! Love the collection of clocks.
Look forward to your next post!
Take Care,
Maria

Darling I'm speechless! These pics are soo inspiring. Your house looks stunning and your kitchen is amazing! I'm so in love with it!
Thanks so much for sharing with us all these fantastic pics!
I have a question for you darling, I really love your photos and I'd like to be able to take beautiful photos like yours. Could you please give me some tips? The light and the soft shape is fantastic. How you edit your photos?
Thanks soo much for your help!

P.s. The headband is still not arrived...
What an amazing kitchen! I have tap envy! I am intrigued though how to manage that beauty with family life. I try, but seem to spend too much time tidying up and wonder will my kids look back on their childhoods and think 'Mummy spends alot of time cleaning...?' x hope not... :-)
che bellooo!I agree with other girs...Really: how think that you need someone else to do the styling for you? I NEED YOU in italy!
Oh goodness, your kitchen is just beautiful. So warm and inviting, I can just imagine you and your friends spending many happy hours sitting around your bench baking, sharing and laughing. Meredith xo.
KIm your home is gorgeous! Love your kitchen! I have a clock collection to and just love it! Thanks for the peek!
Bonjour Mimi,
I can see why you can spend hours in that gorgeous kitchen. You did a wonderful job, and so did that husband of yours!
Have a great day!
Your kitchen is absolutely wonderful. I would never leave it!
Your living room looks beautiful too, I love your collection of clocks.
Thank you for showing us!
Have a wonderful day!

So simply perfect.

Someday I will sit at that island with a glass of wine, then curl up in that great room of yours and have some girl talk....someday! xo
I can imagine why the kitchen is your favourite place: it's amazing!!! If I had a kitchen like this I would never go anywhere.... But also the rest of the house reflects your classy taste. Hope you will show us other magnificent photos... Zaira
Absolutely gorgeous! I would spend most of my time there too!
Wow! You have a gorgeous home:)
It's all so beautiful, but that floor is making me swoon!!!
Your home is beautiful - warm, cozy, inviting - If I lived near you, I'd be at your house all the time. Be glad I don't live near you, haha! Seriously, you have an eye for detail and your style is awesome. Thanks for sharing......
Blessings,
Lisa
And it looks just like you, which means it is a successful kitchen renovation. It is stunning! You don't need a stylist, you are one!
Oh my -- I can definitely see why your kitchen is your favorite room -- it is so lovely! Boys just don't understand collections -- unless they are collections of rocks or spiders! Have a great WEdnesday!
Janet
I agree - I think you have an inner stylist you were somehow unaware of. Your home looks so picture perfect! It's lovely. And that clock collection is super fun. :)
Thanks for having us over to your lovely home! Eye candy at it's finest. :)
Enjoy your Wednesday!
I thought it was out of magazine! Gorgeous! And I hope my boy grows up and wants to hang out with me too!
Michelle
**swoony** your home is just fabulous, I would actually cook if I had a kitchen like that Kimberly!! wow, and your collections, darling...I want to see more..is that being too nosey?? :) thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your incredible kitchen and family room with us. My kitchen is pitiful to say the least so I would definitely LIVE in a kitchen like yours and I don't even cook!
Gorgeous! The pictures feel so serene. Just lovely! Great inspiration for a girl who can't wait to do her own kitchen makeover!
~Karla @ It's The Little Things...
Your kitchen is the favorite room in my house too, lol! Simply amazing!

Oh. My. Word. Hello neighbor! It's so nice to meet you!! This kitchen is to die for!!! I am so happy that you commented on my blog, because now I get to follow YOURS! We live right across the lake, over in Magnolia. But right now, for a few more months, we are in Houston, TX for my husband's company. I am excited to say that we'll be back in Seattle as of June 1st! I'm so happy to have found you, and can't wait to read the rest of your blog.

I agree with Mikal, I would never leave my kitchen if it looked like yours!!! It is just beautiful! I would so love to have a big island like that, where everyone can hang around......love all the pics!
Shellagh
Your kitchen is really beautiful!
That is an amazing kitchen! Wow, you guys really did a beautiful job. I would never leave it either! It looks like you have a lovely home. Thanks for sharing.
What do you mean when you say you are not a stylist? You definitely are! I could move in tomorrow...
I don't know why you think you need a stylist? Every angle of your rooms looks like a stylist did them.
I thought the kitchen was a photo from a magazine!
I love your kitchen. I have white cabinets and love them too. I love the island. You really did a great job designing and putting it together.
