My Fall Kitchen

Hi All,
I am soooooo loving the chilly weather. Took a brisk walk this morning, which was a good start to the day. I am sharing my kitchen with Julia over at Hooked On Houses. This is such a great site dedicated to showing homes,  of all sorts. She is doing a post on her followers kitchens and the photos we send her. Go over and say hi to Julia and check out her great website, when you get a chance. Here are the pics I contributed...
 My kitchen.  I changed out the lower cabinets from the apple green to a milky white and added new knobs...
 Of course, I can't do a kitchen post without highlighting my Flair!
 The nook area...
 Granny's hoosier, which I have shown many times...
And the door leading to the basement, which I turned into a chalkboard.  P.S. My daughter just pointed out I let the other "P" out of Pumpkin! lol

    I've visited you a few times now...took a peek around, and I must say I have never seen a Flair before. How interesting! I'm guessing this is your stove? Too cool! Thanks for sharing your cozy kitchen!

    Love the updated cabinets, looks like a new fridge too!
    Amazing how your stove fits right in. Love the chalkboard door, we have so much fun with the one in the kitchen at 1515

    I love your Flair. When I was growing up, a friend's mother had one. I always thought they must be rich. :) Your kitchen is so warm and inviting. I have 'half a hoosier'. It belonged to my mother. The top half got separated from the bottom at some time, and I only have the bottom. I painted and worked on it earlier this year, and brought it into my mud room. I enjoy it so much!

    Hi, I've never seen the 'Flair'. It's so cool!! Next time I watch an old re run of Bewitched I'll have to keep a look out. I love your kitchen redo! Beautiful job. I am following you. Please come by and follow me at Pinehurst Cottage. Come with us on our journey in finding a vacation cottage and the renovation of it. I'd love to get your opinion. ~Amy

    It's always fun to see your home, Robin. Your kitchen is so very charming. The hoosier is gorgeous -- such a treasure. I know I've seen the Flair before, but it always reminds me of the Tapan that we had when I was growing up. The oven was on the top and the burner section slid in and out -- that was good because my Mom was a messy cook and didn't like to clean up....lol!

    Hi, Robin! Glad I popped over in time to see your cozy, welcoming kitchen ready for Fall! I think the p in words like pumpkin and raspberry just seem unnecessary! :)

    There's no place like home! I love your kitchen with all it's little touches of red. Your housier is a delight...and it looks so nice with your newly painted white undercabinets. I can see you spending lots of time in this cozy part of your home.
    Have a great week and thanks for sharing your wonderful home.

    Never heard of a Flair before, it looks like a huge stove/oven. Like you cabinets all white. Everything looks so pretty. Thanks for sharing your inspiration with Sunday’s Best – you helped make the party a success!

    Hi Robin - I found you over at Julia's blog. The pic of your Frigidaire Flair took me right back to my teen age years. My mom had this same stove - in totally modern coppertone!

    I have very fond memories of my grandmother's Flair. She used to pull out the stove top drawer and sit three year old me on top of it so I could watch my Eggos toasting up for a couple of minutes in the glass front oven. Every time I see the picture of your Flair it reminds me of her and makes me smile.
    Thank you so much,
    Wendy
