Chef Extraordinaire
I've just added 8.5 ft (well, not quite yet, I have pick up the table tomorrow and the cutting board is still in the shop, but still) of prep space to my kitchen. Granted, I converted the family room to where the table goes (it was in the kitchen), but I don't need a family room--I have no family and I have 3 extra bedrooms. I purchased an old oak library/side table for $20--it is 20 in. x 48 in. and 30" high, so I can sit down when I prep! I had the cutout for the sink (from my butcher block counter top the DH made) made into a cutting board that fits inside the sink (I'll take a picture when the DH finishes that). With the 24" re: the portable dishwasher top, the cutting board that fits over the sink (about 30"), and the table (on which my 18" x 30" slab of marble will fit nicely--picked that up with a bunch of marble at an auction for $20 years ago), I've just made my kitchen more user-friendly and created 8.5 ft of extra flat surface space. And, I will be able to shove three of those plastic rolly-drawer units (12 drawers total) under the table--in which to store stuff (rolling pins, etc.). Beauty! I might like cooking in this kitchen after all. I'd like an island, but that will come when $ is available, in the meantime, this table should serve me nicely.
