Foodie Friday -- March 28th

Welcome to Foodie Friday, where great cooks gather to share recipes.

What have you brought today?

It's been a while since I've given you a kitchen update. The backsplash 

has been installed.

I'm waiting for the beadboard panels to be installed. Below, you

can see where I tested various colors. (More later.)

And here is the good doctor, checking out the refrigerator. 

The beadboard panels have been painted BM Fieldstone. 

I'm inching forward, trying to decide about the kitchen's style direction.

I do like black and white, which will allow me to decorate with tartan reds and greens in Christmas

and pink in the springtime. It's safe, will work with just about all tablescapes, and I like that.

I like the Madeline counter stool from Restoration Hardware.

In the breakfast room, we're adding a bay window.

I am drawn to upholstered chairs (I know).

Love chairs from Ballard Designs, too. I could order several slips--and I can

choose the finish on the legs.

Adorable pleated slips.

And then I saw this photo on Pinterest. I tracked it down.

The furniture is made by Baker. The chairs are dark, but not black.

Love the shape. Wonder if they are comfortable?

I found another inspiration photo and tracked the source. The furniture is, or was, made by Lexington. I love the white slips and dark wood.

Here and HERE.

It just so happens that I have a roundish table, though it will need painting.

(Hello, Spring and fresh air for DIY projects!)

Below,  you can see a little bit of the breakfast room. Excuse the refrigerator. The room was been painted BM Simply White, and a bay window will be added.

Do you think it'll work?

If you are contributing a recipe to this week's Foodie Friday, locate the blue Inlinkz icon in the lower, left-hand portion of this post. Click on the icon and follow the directions.

You can read a complete guide to this linky party HERE.  It's pretty simple. You don't need to "like" our Facebook page or be a follower of this blog to participate. Nor do you need to include a backlink or Foodie Friday button in your post. Add as many recipes as you wish, old or new. If you love food, we love you.

Pretty please do not pin images from the FF thumbnails. Visit the source blogs. Thanks.

   

If you'd like to share your food photos--or photos of other FF participants on Pinterest, join the Pinterest foodie board, Consuming Passions. Leave a message on the most recent "pin" if you'd like your name added to the list.

Every Friday, we are joined at this big, virtual table--thank you for stopping by today. I'm grateful to all of you who spend your days cooking. I'm grateful to old and new friends who contribute recipes every week. I'm grateful to friends who leave a comment. I'm grateful for the silent folks, because you are brought here by your love of all things culinary. We are food people. And that's a marvelous thing. 

Until next time,

Foodie Friday Linky Party


Have a nice day!
