Natural & Black Kitchen Obsession

Big. Fat. Sigh. I think it's safe to say that I am obsessive. Not in a creepy single, white female way, but obsessive in the way that I find it hard to pull myself away from a project. For some reason, I've decided that this is the week to schedule nothing, so I can organize every room in my house (and the garage). The bad news is I'm exhausted, the good news is I haven't washed my hair or gotten dressed in days, and I'll tell you, it's not half bad.  I'm not sure if Hubs would agree, but I'm sure he already thinks the house is organized...which it is, but it needs to be organized even more (according to me). I need to get my hands on some of Stella's toys that need to be donated or trashed, and I need to do this alone. I tried having her help me, and I swear to you, every little, crappy stuffed animal, toy from the dentist, and broken slinky happens to be the most important thing that she just can't part with. Trust me, she won't miss them. Why do we spend money on toys, again? (I feel like I should be doing an evil laugh after that. I promise, I won't get rid of anything she truly loves.) 

Anyway, I had to pull myself away from the playroom tonight, before I skip sleep altogether. But, speaking of obsessions, I've broadened my horizons, and I've found a kitchen (other than white) that is pretty much obsession-worthy. It's very different, and the giant white space above the stove needs to continue the black cupboards (IMO), but obsession-worthy regardless, dontcha think?

  2. That is definitely a kitchen to obsess over. And once you're done organizing your house, can you come do mine? I still have little baby toys that are useless. You're definitely right about getting the kids involved in that stuff...everything becomes their favorite toy when it's time to purge. Maybe you could convince her that a certain number of toys need to be donated (and therefore need to be in good condition)? That might help spur a little bit of letting go.....
