Note that the title of this post is "I" have a new pantry, not "We" have a new pantry. That's because I am the one who has wondered about the lack of a pantry in this house since we considered buying it. I'm the one who watched the piles of junk and boxes and food items pile up on the counter space that was here. I'm the one who SWORE I'd be a happier woman and a better wife/mother if only I could actually store kitchen food/equipment IN my kitchen rather than in the coat closet down the hall or upstairs in the guest bedroom closet. SOOOO, Jon, being the amazing husband that he is, figured it was worth a few bucks and a mess in the kitchen for a few days to make me happy. And boy was it a worthwhile investment!!! The new pantry (which replaced upper/lower cabinets and the aforementioned countertop) has at least twice the storage space as the stuff that was there before. PLUS, it has a door so I can just close it and everything is hidden. YIPPPPEEE!!!!
The hole left after Jon and I did the demo (the fridge is on the right side of the photo)
It's coming along...here you see the new framing and drywall (fridge will be where the shop-vac is in the photo)
Ahhhh, doors!!!
Storage, glorious storage!! See, I'm pretty easy to please, right!?!?!?
