Show Off Your Cottage "Kitchen" Monday!

This is my favorite room of my house. This is where I spend hours engage in delightful things such as cooking, baking, talking, laughing, sharing, singing, dancing, praying, and cleaning much!! And guess what??? Blogging too!
One of the things I truly enjoy about my kitchen is the three windows overlooking the garden… They're not big or anything special, but while I cook or wash dishes or clean the floors, I always have to pause to just take a look outside and see what new treasure nature has in store for me… Nature never ceases to amaze me, to entice me with a regalia of symbols… like this morning's unpredictable moment when I paused to drink in the smell on the winter air. Truly wonderful!

    Those kitchens are heavenly! Makes me want to redecorate. I linked up my dining room. Hope that's okay. It's where I have my tall skinny Xmas tree.

    Thank you for featuring me too, Cielo!
    I finally got the post up this morning. Blogger called it a Bad Request last night and wasn't working right.
    I love your kitchen, it is so inviting and warm and lovely. You look lovely, too, as you work in it!
    Have a wonderful day, and thanks again!

    I am honored you posted the picture of our eating area in our small cottage kitchen, Cielo. I loved seeing the pictures of the pretty kitchens, and yours is especially lovely, Cielo!
    Now I am going to look at all the links posted. I love kitchens, and I have a nasty habit of buying too many kitchen magazines, even though I am not planning on renovated or redecorating anytime soon, LOL!

    Thanks Cielo...yeah, blOgs have some issues sometimes, I don't know why they came out like that! I'm new at this too. Click on the large pics and they get to be the right size so you can see better, what can I tell you. Thanks for visiting, though.

    Feliz Navidad con mucho cariño para ti y los tuyos.
