Chocolat - French for Chocolate. I adored chocolate from a young age when I had to sneak in the cupboard to find where my mother had hidden the Nestle's Chocolate Chips. Having read about the famous chocolat shoppes in Paris, when I finally got there I was determined to try a chocolate from every Paris shoppe. I invite you to share my adventures in creating, in travel, and in life.

Words to Eat By
"Though never a very good dieter, she'd found a rule of thumb that kept her from blimping out as her metabolism aged - eat what you want, but not all of it. So if she wanted cheesecake, she made cheesecake, had a slice, and took the rest to a friend or someone in her church who needed a pick-me-up."

The kitchen looks fantastic. I love white kitchen cupboards so it is not surprise I loved this one. I painted mine last summer and have loved my kitchen since then.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I'm sure she is as thrilled with the granite as I am with mine. I just wish I'd done it sooner. There must be something about a "new" kitchen that cries out for a container with lemons!!
ReplyDeletewonderful transformation!!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous transformation!! I would love it if you would link this up to my Marvelous Mess party. Here is the link: http://marvelouslymessy.blogspot.com/2011/04/marvelous-mess-7.html
ReplyDeleteGreat transformation! I love the light distressed look--perfect!
ReplyDeleteYour friend is lucky to have your help. Looks great!
ReplyDeletehmmm.. Granite counter tops you say? They look great in the combo you made there. Actually... I'm a bit envious that your friend got your priceless advice and help! sigh
ReplyDeleteWe're thinking about wood counter tops (we're having wood floors also so it should match, somewhat) but I admit I'll miss the temporary island I have now which has granite tops... I always thought granite tops were "colder" than the wood ones! What's your experience with the wood ones?
First of all you have such a talented husband. Gorgeous counters. This is such a lovely, sensible makeover. The upgrades are sooo smart -- stove top and the big sink. I just love this one and so appreciate you stopping by to see our bedroom redo ideas. Jane F.
ReplyDeleteHi, What a great job. We have been considering changing our oak also. You have inspired me.
ReplyDeleteThx
This looks so great! Help I need a bathroom redo! I love the milk paint -- it is just so bright and fresh! Joni
ReplyDeleteThe cabinets look wonderful! And the granite is just perfect with the new color! Gorgeous transformation! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteMiss Bloomers
What a gorgeous transformation. I'd so love to redo my kitchen.
ReplyDeleteits just beautiful!!!! I love all of it!
ReplyDeleteMake sure you include prices of the items so you have an idea of the discount countertops. Once you have gathered a lot of ideas about your new kitchen, grab a pencil and start to jot down the costs of all the items you want to include.
ReplyDeleteYour new kitchen is beautiful. Love the new paint job, and the granite too.
ReplyDeleteYou did a beautiful job on the kitchen, painting the cabinets totally transformed it, I'm your newest follower.
ReplyDeleteLove it! What a beautiful job and it really updated and refreshed the kitchen. The other rooms look pretty good, too!
