The house is flooded with light - the kitchen gets the morning sun. A "bright" house was important to us. And one of my favorite things about the kitchen is the big side window. The house next door sits farther back in the middle of the block, so their front yard has become our side yard. When I cook, I get to enjoy the beautiful views of the big hydrangeas, our brick wall, the neighbor's tremendous magnolia trees, the iron fence and the street beyond.
