A Room of One's Own

See that coffee press on the top left? How I missed it! I bought a small Keurig for the renovation, but I am not a big fan of the machines (for the cost and waste). I have to thank my little Keurig, though, for getting me through the month+ of time I have been without cooking devices (I know, first world problems--I'm fully aware of how stupid I have been sounding over the past month).

And while I plan on keeping the Keurig for when I need a quick cup, I'm going back to French press life. Still have no kettle (haven't since our kitchen fire a year ago), but a pot boils the same!

My eat-in kitchen area has the new black circular table (and I stained my chairs black to match). On the wall (not pictured) is one of my bw photos framed. It is the first time I have really placed my photography in a room with purpose--that felt good! It completes the room too.

This is my breakfast. A half-pita toasted on the cast-iron pan, with a fried egg, spinach and tomatoes.

Yes, I like this place. Like a lot. A lot a lot.
What a beautiful and tasty looking still life.

@jgpittenger Ok, now you have to come! And now that I think of it, I am hoping you, Taffy, and Junko can do a fall trip to Smoky Mountains like last time (Bruce went to the Summit and we had our own "Summit"). Oh, good times!
