into the kitchen | The best part of working out of my house is that my work breaks generally involve me puttering around the kitchen -- fixing some tea, a little snack, a light lunch, a nice dinner. The kitchen has always been my favorite room in the house, and not just because I love to cook. This is the one room in the otherwise small, compartmentalized 1950s-built house that feels open and spacious and airy. Renovated a few years before we moved in, it features tall ceilings and ample counter space.  >
