Unpacking the Kitchen(s)

We are settling into the cooking spaces in our new house.

While our daughter sets up her play kitchen:

the grownups are busy unpacking and organizing the family kitchen:

Located near each other, we can keep one another company while we cook away. I’ve been informed there are chocolate cupcakes and baked potatoes in the oven. Should we save you some? I’m not sure we’ll be able to resist the yumminess, but we do love to share.

Now please excuse me while I go unpack some more kitchen boxes. I know the measuring spoons are around here somewhere.

Here are some of our favorite play kitchen items, many of which are shown above: our handmade felt salad greens and mushrooms, cookware and dining set (made out of recycled milk jugs!), thrifted tea service and mini Corningware dishes, cake decorating set, pop-up toaster and mixer, cutting food and fruit crates, ice cream shop, checkout cash register, and colorful mini colanders.
