WOW, Keith, you really do do things to the extremes, don't you! That kitchen is definitely one extreme to the other. The new is definitely beautiful, so streamlined, looks so fresh & clean. And definitely forward thinking with the slide out bottom cabinets! But the 'old' kitchen is more along the lines of my personal style, looks cozy. The wood cabinets are very similar in style to what I have. The only thing I don't like about them is the way dust and grime (and yes, grease, too) accumulates on that bottom ridge of the door panels. If I had thought it through thoroughly when I had mine done, I would have gone with a smooth fronted cabinet door. And I like the way the chair backs 'match' the cabinet door design. Bet y'all are really enjoying this gorgeous new kitchen.

We are having a winter day today, 55 degrees, heavy cloud cover, and light rain, which is badly needed! Kind of puts me into the Christmas spirit. Even though I've lived in S Texas for over 50 years, I still can't get used to, (or learn to like) 85 degree Christmas days!

The pictures below are from a couple of years ago, plants I rescued from Walmart after Christmas a year before that. They are setting buds again now. Probably won't be open by Christmas, but they seem to bloom on their own time schedule, which is fine by me!

Ju,, that looks like a lot of seed you are cleaning, will you plant them all?? ?

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

(ETA. . . . . Oops, the last picture is an Easter Cactus I had for awhile, it apparently is more 'touchy' about its care than Christmas cactus are, it didn't survive very long)
