in my kitch

Welcome.

"No matter where I serve my guests

they seem to like my

kitchen best."

--A plaque that was in

my mom's busy kitchen.

This is my work station.

I spend quite a bit of time on

that 11 x 7 swatch

of floor.

It isn't glamorous...

and after looking at these pictures

I can say with confidence

a little updating wouldn't hurt...

but...

it's mine.

The door leads to the basement

with a handy 2-step down landing.

Just the right spot for

shelving.

Rubber coated shelving

that holds my growing

whole food

pantry...

and other essentials.

My husband installed these

years ago...

and they were the gathering place

for everything from

batteries and light bulbs

to doggie treats.

Now they are an extension to

my kitchen...

when I open that door

the bright yellow light

floods in.

Easy access.

That's been an incentive of mine.

Like many, I have found myself

asking...

Why do I insist on putting

items I use daily in drawers?

The answer to that question

is taking shape

as I "remodel"

my space.

Just wanted to show my viewers

how cute May has been.

Way to go Warren Kimble!

Such an improvement over

ugly fish...

don't you think?

While visiting my kitch

let's see what the bitch has been up to.

Introducing kale to the family...

sneaking it in salads...

it's green so they didn't mention

a thing.

Tossed with other fresh

ingredients...

Blended together for a

good long time...

to create the

Green Breakfast Smoothie.

I find I only enjoy smoothies

during the warmer months...

this one was a surprise.

It tasted fresh and clean...

not adjectives I use to describe food

very often...

but as I travel this month long vegan path

I find they are the perfect choice

with so many

fruits and veggies

on my plate.

A glass for now...

the rest for the 4 pm zone-out time.

My one honest complaint with this recipe...

I was hungry an hour after

eating/drinking it.

Where is the protein that

holds me over until

lunch?

Not to be found in this one...

but I did enjoy it midday.

Make sure you have an audience as

you drink this bright green fluid...

they will ask oh, so many

funny questions

that will have you asking...

Would you like a taste?

Thanks for visiting my

 kitchen today.

You're welcome back anytime.
