Our Cottage Kitchen

As promised, here are before and after photos of the kitchen. It's still a little bare, but we'll take care of that in no time! The color we chose for the kitchen is called Sweet Basil...

Before: A lackluster rental kitchen.

After: Life happens!

Before: From the dining room, through the wine room and kitchen to the mud room.

After: Looking the opposite direction.

Before: Dull, dingy kitchen and mud room.

After: Not so dull anymore.

And now, two bonus pictures:

Sweet Basil Cocktail
10 basil leaves, plus one for garnish
3 oz. Lillet Blanc
1/2 oz. gin
1 oz. simple syrup

Lightly muddle 10 basil leaves in a cocktail shaker. Add ice and other ingredients, and shake well. Double strain into a chilled coupe and garnish with extra basil leaf. Served in Baccarat, it's a perfect drink!






Pictures of the bathroom will come tomorrow.
