I cant wait till you get back to the states and we can visit<br /><br />More counter space is a double edged sword.. I think I am content with what I have. It can be frustrating n ot having a place, but if we do as we are supposed to the table and freezer work well as prep area. but I prefer less as it limits clutter..<br /><br />Jessy, yes, I had to limit the amount of dishes.. one a piece. We wash by hand so I do not want them piling up.. We wash all of them after each meal. as with the counters, if we do it each time, it takes about 10-15 min to clean up after each meal. But boy, if we skip, it becomes a chore as you can see, there is little place for dirty dishesBlessed little homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17567436742546782175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7535750102059532978.post-57595981251301172262012-03-01T08:52:56.231-05:002012-03-01T08:52:56.231-05:00Oh, I like the idea of having the kids wash their ...Oh, I like the idea of having the kids wash their OWN meal dishes! Dishes are SUCH a struggle here! No one wants to put them in the dishwasher, let alone wash them by hand! And the kids go through 20 cups a day sometimes! (We're working on that too! I'd like to get plastic cups to put their names on in permanent marker and that's their cup to reuse and wash day-to-day.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06441870348048026971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7535750102059532978.post-27370767066486869492012-03-01T04:46:59.706-05:002012-03-01T04:46:59.706-05:00Wow!

The Amish know what they are doing when they build kitchens. <br /><br />Just a question or two for you. Do you ever wish you had more counter space? Do you have plans in the future to add more? <br /><br />I like that you have two crock pots. I will need one when we get moved. The one we have now, is 17 years old. I plan to leave it with a friend. I told my hubby we will get a bigger one. I figure after 17 years, I could get a new one. <br /><br />Just so you know, your family is an inspiration to me. You are such content people and I appreciate that in you. Despite our differences of opinions and such, I find I can learn so much from you. <br /><br />Take care and God bless you all. Stay safe in those storms. My parents' house was struck by lightning yesterday.Rachel E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06029197864979891111noreply@blogger.com
