A few weeks ago, I shared the start of our kitchen remodel journey. I compared re-doing a kitchen to editing a book. Books and kitchens are big projects that challenge our imagination, planning, and determination. Plus more calmness then I have ever before shown and a sense of humor helps, too. Now that the kitchen is finished, I can say that writing a book and building a kitchen are more than just tasks and jobs. It’s about the heart and soul of each creation.
Now that I have had a few weeks to get acquainted with my new kitchen, I have to say that I’m happier, I really am. I’m calmer, more serene, and more joyful, too. I am uplifted by the beauty and craftsmanship- I have a happy oasis.
(And yes, I did mumble something to my husband about adding to the value of our home, resale, investment, blah blah, but- whatever!- I love my granite countertops!)
I am a writer, blogger, book reviewer, and bon vivant and encourager. I have lived my entire life in Tropical Ohio. My goal is to make friends with everyone in the world. I wrote a fiction series, The Golden Age of Charli, that presents the problems and praises, and the love and laughter of family life and retirement. My passions are blogging, reading and reviewing, and writing. My life is a WIP.
