More Space in the Kitchen!
There's always been only two things I didn't like about this house. The master bathroom has no counter space - which can't be remedied without knocking out walls, and the kitchen hasn't had enough storage space, but this is now changed! Since it's open to the family room, there are only three sizable upper cabinets in our kitchen and it's isn't enough! There is a small pantry but it too is very small. Though Joe loved having the little bistro table in the kitchen to sit at, it now lives on the lanai and actually looks good there too. Only minutes ago, the countertop installer left and it is done! I love it! It has added atleast 50% more storage and 7' of added counter-space. I've already moved into it. I don't have to take all the spices out of the cupboard anymore to find what I'm looking for, or go to the laundry room to get paper towels or napkins, or go to the garage to get the canned goods I need. It's now all in the room it should be in. Everybody's happy.
This is how the wall used to look.

what was on that wall before? I can't remember.
Then again, I can't remember ANYTHING anymore.

Barry, Barry, Barry,
(I said your name 3 times in case you forgot the first one or two)... As gently stated in Shirley's post, there'd been a little bistro table at that wall.
The little round bistro table is now outside, and we added 3 barstools at the kitchen counter, which is where I now eat breakfast. We pretty much never use the real dining room :)

I'll add the 'before' photo.

That looks great! however...I think I will need to come and see it in person to really get an idea.
