KITCHEN THINGS

buy Seroquel no rx Last night Jane had friends over for dinner, so Carol and I cooked a delicious three bean chili.  I will post the recipe later.  

Acerra Because a giant clam has taken over my dining table…..

Clam 

we decided to have dinner in my kitchen.  (my dining table is really my office anyway) Here is a photo of my kitchen.

It's been like this forever, and I think I'm ready for a change.  Just a little change, maybe a bit more formal.  I like this kitchen below featured in the current Elle Decor.

I love the china cabinet in this kitchen.

Elle decor 

I really love the color of the walls and the white cabinets.  I'm thinking of moving my hanging pot holder, and putting a little chandelier in it's place.  (we do bump our heads often)   Back to last night, here are some photos…..

Better biscotti 

Home made biscotti–again.

Roses 

Cornbread 

Carol and I made cornbread to go with the chili.  (I actually use Martha White's mix–it has never let me down, and I'm lazy.)

Cheers 

Jane and her guests.  I'll post the three bean chili recipe in just a bit.

    I think your home is beautiful before, after, during… it is beyond! Beautiful dining room.
    And Carol is really quite the chef! You and your girls each have their own way of showing their creativity. 🙂

    I love your plates (and your home, so beautiful). May I ask where your plates are from? The goblets are wonderful, too!
    Has Carol started a food blog?

    If only I were as stylish as Carol at that age! And, yes, Martha White has never let me down either – and I’m lazy.

    That is a gorgeous table! And I loved that kitchen in Elle Decor too (shocker). I just showed it to Bret last night for the paint color. xo
