The Goodrums

More pictures. Today we'll do kitchen areas.

The kitchen is probably the biggest upgrade we received in moving from our apartment to the new house. Before our entire kitchen was the size of the sink and refrigerator half of our new kitchen. We have about 20 extra cabinets now. The spiffy KitchenAid mixer that we have had for the past 3 years finally got to come out of the box (it's been in storage since our wedding because we didn't have space for it in our old kitchen). And I finally used it on Sunday to make cupcakes. It's ridiculous how much easier baking is when you use a mixer!















Overview Picture

More pictures - moving clockwise from bottom left above...




















We finally got rid of the ugly blue plastic trash can from college. A grown up trash can! :) The blue one was fine when it was hidden away - but this one is much better, especially given that it's out for all to see!















Lots of counter space... Such a great thing!




















A fun, new gas range (I'm having to reteach myself how to cook - but everyone says that gas ranges are so much better once you learn how to use them). Michael hasn't made much use of it yet - as excited as he was about it. :)

The pantry is off to the right of this picture. It's not a walk-in (darn) but it's still an upgrade over what we had before.

The laundry room is to the right of the pantry (12 noon in our clockwise rotation from above). And then we circle around to the other side of the kitchen...















New refrigerator - and the mixer I mentioned. Fire extinguisher not yet put away in the lower cabinet (still have a few unfinished projects).




















Close up of the spiffy mixer :)















We are also loving our deep sink - and the little spray hose that I was never allowed to use as a kid. Sure makes doing the dishes easier.
