Mine currently has none. The closest one is in the dining room, so we knocked down part of the wall between the rooms to let in more light. I totally understand the need for windows. BTW, your new kitchen here in Athens was truly a great kitchen. OH, to have a kitchen with WINDOWS! Mine currently has none.

Katherine, the eating bar was precisely for that purpose. What good is a kitchen if people can't sit and watch you cook? Liz, you were right on. My last favorite kitchen was in an original 1940's apartment flat in Knoxville. The whole place had huge casement windows, and the kitchen was not spared that luxury. It was filled with outdoor light until the sun went down. Rebecca, I think a window sink is a huge plus — in fact, it could be key.

I enjoy remembering your explanation for all your decisions in that kitchen, way back when we got to stay with you that one night. And I've tucked a few of those ideas away, also hoping to one day indulge in our dream kitchen, at least to some extent. When I first started reading the post, I was guessing “windows.”

Congrats on selling the house.

I love the looks of your renovated Georgia kitchen. You've got such style! 2. I'm so glad you sold your GA house. 3. The kitchen I've loved most in my life so far was in our initial-three-months-of-Blacksburg sublease. It was *perfectly* arranged, and with a sink window overlooking a park. The whole three months I knew I was falling in love with it, and it is still painful that that's not the kitchen I own. I mean, I'm glad we own a kitchen, attached to a whole house that is ours! I just wish it was that other one. 1. I love the looks of your renovated Georgia kitchen. You’ve got such style!
