We painted our kitchen last night. At 5:00 p.m., I woke up from my marathon afternoon nap and Jesse asked what I wanted to do, listing out several options. I immediately vetoed “take a walk” because I was too exhausted. A couple hours later, I stood bewildered in my kitchen, a bucket of purple paint at my feet and my husband enthusiastically taping around the windows. Guess I should have just opted for the walk.
Our kitchen is now purple. The color’s name, to be exact, is “soapy water.” I can’t imagine what was going through the mind of the person who generated such a color name. But, it seems appropriate for a kitchen.
Pictures!
Soapy water!
Note the child locks on the cabinets under the sink...to keep Oliver out of the trash.
Cheap souvenir from Paris
Cat clock! Black and white, because the purple in this picture looked funny...

Gorgeous!
I love your house. And you. 
This is awesome! I love the color. I can’t believe you did this all in one evening!
You certainly have an “eye” for color. I remember you and Jesse painting your entire house in a weekend. We’ve been here three years and still have three rooms yet to paint. Procrastinate because I just can’t decide on colors. Glad the old saying, “Like mother, like daughter,” does NOT apply to you.
It looks wonderful!! Now I’m going to have to come visit again to see it! lol!!
Good job!!
Love it! I’d totally hire you to paint my kitchen. I had a painting party over a year ago, and the kitchen was the one room that never got done. Never.
