A Mother's Day Gift (Early)

I've improvised and pictures are now returning to my blog. Since I can't find my memory card for my digital camera I decided to use my webcam that's built into my laptop. So the pictures won't be as good but you get the idea.

My wonderful Husband got me my Mother's Day gift early! It actually wasn't going to be a gift just an item we needed to get but I declared it a Mother's Day gift due to budget constraints. My new microwave!!


It really finishes the kitchen! There has been just a whole there for awhile now and a large old microwave was taking up way too much precious counter space. But no more! It looks very lovely.

From yesterday's post here is a finished picture of the Bay window "mis"treatments. Again taken from my webcam.


It looks so much better than that ugly paper and they are so much easier to move so I can see out of my beautiful window. Now if only I could move the houses across the street then I would have a clear view of the sunset. One mountain at a time I suppose.

That microwave looks eerily similar to mine. Hope you like it (I don't do well with new fangled items LOL).

Happy Mother's day!

I like the microwave. Practical gifts are the best. I would love a microwave above my oven but mine is on the counter for now. Enjoy!

Love the new microwave!! I'm angling for a new gas stove and then french doors ;-)
Congrats on your wonderful mother's day gift!!
