Keeping It Real!

Keepin it real on the home front. I have a little secret about myself. I like to see how other folks live. I enjoy seeing how other women decorate a room, creative ideas, and of course, do normal people's houses look like the pictures in a Better Home and Garden magazine spread. Here is my reveal of truth. This is my kitchen this morning. Stock pot from last nights boiled chicken for my homemade chicken potpie. Man, that was good! Alas, the mess was not. Rotting carved pumpkin from a week ago, stacks of newspaper coupons from last Sunday still needing to be clipped, and everyone's drop zone the breakfast bar. There is my recipe box and stacks of cookbooks piled high in that tray that doesn't go there. You can't see it but that stove top is spotted and crumby.

The reveal! Ahhhhh, that's nice:) If only, it could last for a little while.

My favorite room ! Well, at least the room I spend the most time in.

The beloved coffee station! Thinks it's that time of day for a fresh pot. I love a cup of afternoon coffee. I love to sit down with my new issue of Southern Living and a cup of java. It's the Thanksgiving issue!

If I get really brave, perhaps next time I will reveal my laundry room. Oh my goodness, that will be a big job to organize. Ta ta for now!
