You will have to read this whole thread Amy, there are some lovely kitchen photos and it's interesting learning how we come by our forum names. Before and after photos would be nice.

Something happened to my first post Amy so this post is entirely a different context from my first - POST US YOUR CURRENT KITCHEN PHOTO  ha ha   ;D  ;D  !!!  I can't speak for everyone on this forum but I love to see photo's, whether its of food or your kitchen. Because of privacy issues we can't often show a portait photo of ourselves personally but when the closest connection we see is your kitchen 'atM we can connect it with you   :-*

Okay ladies :D I'm very excited. I'm going to take photos right now!!

You will have to excuse the funny walls and stuff though :-\ ... :)

Lol CP, I'm the same. I love seeing other people's photos, especially with some of the talent of the ladies on this forum!! I respect other people's privacy very much, so I understand why some people don't want to post photos of themselves (I'm one of them) :-)) But I might be able to treat you all to a hilarious photo of me when I was a little girl, if you'd like to have a laugh and get a bit of an idea what I look like now? ;)

Here's a couple of photos of our daggy little kitchen ;D

TM was busy cooking porridge, so couldn't wave to the camera I'm afraid :-)) That's my morning cuppa in front of the microwave. Behind the lovely new oven is a large hole in the wall, so standing at the stove in the morning is a bit chilly around the ankles! I'm sure you will appreciate our pink recycling bucket, which also serves as an extra sink to rinse dishes in when I am doing the washing up. I am glad I took these photos because it has reminded me that my bottle of conditioner is sitting on top of the fridge :D

I thought I would give you a little commentary on my kitchen because I'm very excited that you wanted to see it :D

Amy that is an impressive new oven.  Lucky you! 

I love the blue coloured ovenware you have up on the shelf.

Amy, that looks like my stove.  Is it an Omega?  I got the range hood to go with it.  :D

Thanks ladies ;D I love the new oven too! It is so much bigger than the last one we had, and it has a light that actually works, and the fan doesn't decided to go off suddenly whenever it feels like it ;)
Julie, yes, it is an Omega. We match!! :D

so what's the next step in your kitchen renovation?

We're getting new everything Judy :) New benches, new sink, new fridge, new floor... its going to be great :D :D It will probably take a while though, because we can only get a bit done at time when we have enough money to pay for it. So you might get some progressive photos before the finished kitchen!! :-)) ;)

Love it Amy! Can see its a work in progress, but its a very useable kitchen. Very homely.

Thanks CP :) It is only really usuable for one person at a time though. Otherwise we end up doing weird dances around each other :-))

Its certainly very handy Mandi (Lol that rhymes!! :D) It will be very convenient for when I finally get around to doing my baking for that market!! I can fit lots in the oven at once ;)

Well, I can safely say my eyes are about to fall out. It has taken me a couple of hours but I have read all 59 pages, and I'm so glad Judy said I should!! I love everyones kitchens, and there were so many lovely stories along the way, I feel like I know you all so much better. This is truly an amazing forum, and I'm so happy to be part of it :D

Love to everyone :-*

Glad you enjoyed it Amy - it does make you feel as if you know everyone that little bit better when they share their stories and pictures.  We're glad you joined this big family too Amy.
