I've never really liked upper cabinets, though. <BR/><BR/>Maybe one reason though is that most Mexican women are short and they wouldn't be able to reach into the cabinets without a stool. <BR/><BR/>I'm planning on some stainless steel shelving above (next time I can get them from IKEA) and a kitchen island made by a restaurant supply place - probably 4' square!<BR/><BR/>So it will be a blend of Mexican and modern!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15016075941355264454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36412663.post-77704125435672274902007-11-29T22:40:00.000-07:002007-11-29T22:40:00.000-07:00Your Kitchen is huge and beautiful.

Your photos show that not only is it possible, it's pretty darned amazing.

I loved the picture of your son and wife, how wonderful that they speak spanish. You are right that it is a great blessing to be friends with your children when they are grown. We are both lucky to have kids we like as adults.<BR/><BR/>You can never post too many construction pics as far as I am concerned. I love watching what you are doing with the house.Jonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775514857047122526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36412663.post-78291033085833887822007-11-25T20:34:00.000-07:002007-11-25T20:34:00.000-07:00It is beautiful!It is beautiful!Cynthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10494829427921648472noreply@blogger.com
