A kitchen that is not quite so tiny

Yesterday was a major home improvement day. Colin, Mike, and I took a field trip to Ikea. Mike, because he just moved into a studio and Needs Stuff. Colin and I to enable a vision of a more spacious kitchen with a ton more storage space. Also because Mike and I like to look at all the gloriousness that is Ikea. Colin was a good sport. All those arrows on the floor really help keep people moving in the right direction. They need to put some of those in the cafeteria.

Anywho, this field trip began at noon and ended when Colin and I brushed off our hands and examined our work: a new countertop and shelves in the kitchen, the cabinet/shelf combo moved into the dining room and spruced up with some wine glass holders and a table cloth lining the shelves. I think it looks smashing, and having a smaller structure in the kitchen does so much to help open up the small space. The extra counterspace came just in time to host Thanksgiving, too!

Pictures will be forthcoming when I can offer better than an iPod picture taken at 10pm.
