The Kitchen in the House of Sylvestermouse

The Kitchen is the Heart of Our Home!

The kitchen is the room in our home where I spend most of my time. I enjoy cooking, but that is not the only reason I spend my time in the kitchen.  A few years back, I moved my computer into the kitchen.  Now that my kitchen doubles as my office area, I really do spend most of the day there and I enjoy being surrounded by my pretty kitchen decor and select collectibles.

Small Appliances For the Kitchen

Small appliances are actually no small thing! They make everything easier and often a lot faster. I need my morning coffee and I certainly rely on my coffee maker to make it just right. If I had to choose just one, I would have to say it is the most important small appliance in our home, but they others can run a very close second.

One of my favorite collectibles is my teapots

I started collecting teapots long before I had a home of my own.  It was quite by accident really.  My first teapot was a gift, actually a memento given to me by a surviving spouse when his wife died.  He gave me the teapot so I would always remember my friend, and I do.  Every time I see the teapot, I remember the sweet elderly couple who befriended a young teenager.

My teapot collection has grown, as has my family and friends!

More for the Kitchen

 

There is always More for the Kitchen …….

Mugs, carafes, recipe cards and binders definitely have their place in what is truly the “heart of our home”. Since we all drink from our coffee mugs daily, they are a pretty important part. And, even though I know how to make most of my regular recipes, I still refer to my recipe cards for confirmation that I am not leaving something out. Having a binder to keep them organized is essential!
