I love a great kitchen!

I love a great kitchen!

My wife and I just moved into a new home and the biggest improvement is the kitchen.  Wow!  What a difference a gas range can make.  We both love to cook and spend a lot of time in the kitchen so it needs to be big, with plenty of cabinet and countertop space but it also needs to be workable.  My wife Tara and I can actually cook in the same kitchen, at the same time together!  I know, this is not normal but it’s been that way for over 20 years.   If you enjoy cooking and entertaining like we do then the kitchen is crucial.

Buying a new home!

Most newer homes have larger more open and better appointed kitchens with side by side refrigerators, gas ranges, hood vents,  granite or quartz countertops and soft close cabinets.  http://www.pinterest.com/davewestfal9659  Most older homes don’t have these features and aren’t as likely to sell for a good price.  However lately, many older homes have been remodeled to include these amenities and it can make a world of difference.

Wine?

We also love to enjoy a fine wine with our meals and need plenty of space for wine and stemware.  Look for my next blogs on great wines and how to grow your appreciation for pairing your meals with fun and delicious wines.  Cheers!
