Yep, this my pathetic excuse for a kitchen. Thank God I'm currently renting, so I don't own this kitchen. Needless to say, it's tiny and only 1 person can comfortably cook in it. The stove is uneven and electric (I hate electric stoves- gas is the only way to go), the frig is tiny, the dishwasher doesn't work, the floors are awful, and I have no cabinet or work space. However, I've created a lot of meals and desserts in this tiny kitchen and it's challenged me to think of ways I can cook using a small space. It's pretty difficult rolling out pasta dough, pie crust, or even have my essential appliances readily available (most of them are in a closet in a spare bedroom), but I'm glad that I've had the experience of cooking in this small kitchen. It's made me appreciative for larger and better functioning kitchens.
The good news is that we're hopefully moving soon to a bigger house with a larger kitchen. My fear is that I won't know what to do with extra space, but I'm sure it won't be a problem! Until then though, this my tiny kitchen where I'll keep cooking and dreaming.....
Oh yeah, see the picture left of the window? In case you're wondering, it's a signed picture of Ina Garten that my husband got for me. I like to think that she smiles upon me in the kitchen :)
