I am not really a fan of the kitchen. There I said it. It is definitely not an issue of feminism. I enjoy cooking on rare occasions and there are times when I wish I was more confident in the kitchen and had a variety of recipes up my sleeve.

Frosted cabinets are great for a more modern element, while painted cabinets make for a nice but inexpensive touch.
