I think I have seasonal affect disorder. But opposite. I’m tired of sun and heat. Here in DC it’s chilly and crisp one day then the next it’s warm and I have swamp ass (mostly because I’m inappropriately dressed for the weather which is a common thing for me…as if wearing a sweater wills Fall to come faster).
I guess if you have a dishwasher you don't need a real sink? (via The Kitchn)
I’m feeling a little moody right now. I’d love to have some cuddle up on my couch with some tea, it’s too cold and cloudy to even bother going outside type of weather. (Pretend I hyphenated all that, please.)
Splinters, anyone? (via The Kitchn via The Savannah Cabinet Shop)
So instead of showing you the usual “bright and airy” kitchens I love I thought I’d share some that have liberally applied the colors black and brown in them. I love the dark, rustic feeling in these.
Plus, the first one has a dishwasher and that alone makes me swoon.
Which reminds me, The Kitchn is doing their Fall 2010 Kitchen Cure. So if you’re tired of opening drawers and seeing a tragic mess, or your pots and pans are falling over themselves, or you don’t want to make muffins because your tin is at the bottom of a pile of stuff…it’s time to admit you have a problem and clean. I like the Kitchen Cure because it breaks up what can feel like a daunting all day activity into small tasks over four weeks. One task a week, and a month later you have a kitchen you can actually cook in. Check it out!
Enjoy! :)

The kitchen in the house I grew up in had a brick fireplace on one wall. It was so beautiful and inviting! Dark & Stormy doesn’t need to be a bad thing, right?
I was hoping this was about the Dark and Stormy Drink. But alas not. That second kitchen is rustic and awesome.
