Clean Kitchen, New Year Mantle
Morning sky is so pretty. I rarely see it, so this morning was the Early Bird Surprise for the people in my house who normally don't know me to get out of bed before they do. My stomach was begging for a break of the fast. I indulged. Then I got busy. My kitchen is so very neat and tidy right now and when Hubby saw it, he said, "It's NEVER this clean"! Whaaaaat? Of course, it's been clean (THIS clean) before. It's just been so long that he's forgotten what THIS clean LOOKS like. So here. And then, my mantle dressed up for the new year, new growth and all. (Wow, I'm on a ROLL today!)

The kitchen looks great. I for one am not believing your hubby......I am sure it has been that clean before!!! The mantle looks great too. Thanks so much for sharing all your wonderful pictures with us like you do! I love your "eye"
It's beautiful, Gail -- I love the theme of your mantel, and I wish I could just wiggle my nose and have as clean a kitchen as yours!
looks awesome!
Your kitchen looks very nice and very CLEAN! =)
I like your mantel, love the pinecones. It looks great!
The morning sky through that tree....beautiful!
@oldfatgramma - It DEFinately has been this clean before! I go nuts when it's too disorderly and gunky. I enjoy sharing the photos as long as you enjoy looking at them!
@slmret - Janet, if I lived close to you, I'd come and do your kitchen for you! ( 8
@redladybug18 - Thank you! I need to look at your blog and see what photos you've done latelly!!! It's been awhile!
@Elizabethmarie_1 - Thank you, Liz! I just realized what my kitchen is missing! APRONS! { 8
@Richgem - What a wonderful idea!! But I'd have to clean it up first, like for the cleaning lady!
@Richgem - Ahhhh!!! You NEED aprons!!! =)
@slmret - Lol! I would do that, too!!!
@Elizabethmarie_1 - ( 8 One of these days I'll make my own. Every time I go to Anthropologie, I think "GOSH, I could MAKE that!!!" Well, for cryin' out loud, FIRST I have to have our daughter's sewing machine repaired! So, it'll be awhile!
I notice that you have two mixers?? We must get you at least one apron!!
I have seen this kitchen clean like this when you first finished it, but I think it is even nicer in these photos because it has a few things on the counters and is so homey. The colors you all picked with the cabinets, counters, and floor look great.
California Impressionists- should be beautiful.
I like the white with green decor on the mantle.
We have a field trip to a museum tomorrow morning
Love your home! It looks like it is from Better Homes and Gardens!
@ABAHM - Yes, two mixers, both gifts for the Big Baker! As for white and green on mantle, it's a combo I love. I could totally snag your green table cover that Mary gave you! ( 8 A trip to that museum....perfectly glorious way to spend a Friday, I'd say! Hugs to you, dear friend!
@Lucy_or_Ethel - Your comment made me crack up laughing! It just tickled me! You're a DEAR!
