    One day I will have that much white stuff in my life. And less brown. Brown is only good in people.

    Congratulations!

    It looks about 20 times bigger. I can’t even figure out what is up where the table is — it seriously looks like you knocked out a wall. Everything looks so wonderful! I will have some iced coffee now, please.

    WOW. Wow wow wow. I am absolutely in love with all the touches of light turquoise blue. And also the under-cabinet lighting.

    @metalia: hee (snort)

    It is so lovely.

    Will my brain ever get over the plural of Chao being Chaos? AB is the very antithesis of chaos, it bemoans.

  18. 18 page said at 6:41 PM on March 2nd, 2009:

    It is stunning. I am envious of your endless shelving, in addition to all of the new wonderfulness. As per usual, fabulous work.

    So my question is, which room’s got next? And are you ladies annihilating the antique stores in Monroe and parts near and dear?

  19. 19 karen said at 6:43 PM on March 2nd, 2009:

    oh, ab - it is AMAZING. the backsplash tile turned out perfect. and the floor! *swoon*

  20. 20 ab said at 8:17 PM on March 2nd, 2009:

    Thank you thank you thank you! I am beyond happy with it, and so so relieved it’s finished.

    But now what am I going to do?

  21. 21 SFDC said at 8:18 PM on March 2nd, 2009:

    Wow, that second pic, with the arc of the lamp and the arc of the faucet and the arc of the kitchenaid…

    I have chills. Nicely done.

  22. 22 April said at 9:27 PM on March 2nd, 2009:

    Wow. I thought it was perfect before, but now? Now it’s perfect.

    Holy crap, I want it all; will you swap for New York City? We have rats! And snow! (Rats.)

    Still: it’s nice to know life is that bright and clean somewhere. Congratulations, and thank you for sharing it with us.

  29. 29 Julie said at 9:23 AM on March 3rd, 2009:

    BRAVO! The candy jars reminded me of Mitch Hedberg’s jelly beans…
    “Everytime I go to a craft fair I see a jar of jelly beans that says ‘Guess how many jelly beans are in the jar, and you win a prize!’ C’mon man, let me just have some. I tell you what, you guess how many I want. If you said a handful, you are correct.”

  32. 32 ab said at 10:17 AM on March 3rd, 2009:

    I just happened to find your blog and had to tell you I love your kitchen! I love all white and was stoked to see how brave you were with it! We are just now starting to paint our kitchen cabinets white (our budget renovation) and you can check out ours here: http://www.makemineeclectic.wordpress.com
    I will definitely stop back to see more!
