My place and yours: Kitchen Love

My kitchen is a bit of a work in progress, perhaps pathetic since I've been here for nearly 1 1/2 years. I've also wanted to have a kitchen that was wonderful and homey and vintage and nanna, and my kitchen is not what I want it to be yet.

But there are still things I love about my kitchen. Number 1, is my fridge. It's my baby and pride and joy of the kitchen. An Original 50's Kelivinator, complete with blue freezer and alphabet magnets. I cannot tell you how much I love this fridge. All my life I've wanted one of these, ever since I was little and I remember my grandmas one down at the beach house. And thanks to ebay and some strong men, the dream has come true. I'm not sure why Puddy sits on top of it, but he's been there for while, and he quite likes it there, the view and easily access for a snack. ( I tell a lie I think he is my favourite thing in the kitchen)

Also the fact that my kitchen is yellow. Aside from the Kelivinator fridge dream, there has always been the yellow kitchen dream, and when I moved into this place, the wood was the most horrible piney veneery stuff, that just seems to be calling for a paint brush and now it is very yellow.

And like all the rooms in my place, there is plenty of bears and related things but in case your were having any doubts about my bear love.

THanks so much to Nic and Tracey for picking the theme for this week My Place and Yours. I've been loving seeing so many wonderful kitchens and related items over at Punky and Me.
