I've been living for three years now, while we renovate our 150-year-old Victorian, with a completely unusable kitchen. We're using the former "Butler's Pantry" as our kitchen--it has eight total cabinets, most not wide enough to fit a modern-sized dinner plate inside, let alone a skillet or wok. We have no working oven (because the one in the actual kitchen doesn't work and there isn't ANY place to put one in our makeshift kitchen), so I cook and bake with an electric skillet, a hot plate, a microwave, and a small toaster oven. Don't misunderstand, I'm not complaining--my kitchen situation is awkward and very ugly, and frustrating beyond belief, since I'm an avid cook and baker, but I'm sure there are plenty of people trying to work out of kitchens even less usable. Plus, we bought this house (our "Dream Home") knowing we'd have to improvise for a while. <br /><br />I wouldn't have liked having to cook and work in your former kitchen. There doesn't appear to have been a nice stretch of countertop and, you're right, it was a bit unsightly, but I think you were a lot more fortunate than you realize. All those cabinets? An oven that while unattractive and old, still worked? A built-in microwave? It was more than serviceable--there are a lot of people who would happily take over a kitchen like that. I don't know you, I've never read your blog and I try not to judge, but this post made you sound like such a spoiled brat.Katenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-80600609324577373752011-04-13T13:41:40.811-04:002011-04-13T13:41:40.811-04:00What an amazing kitchen transformation!
