After decorating I have to say that my second love is cooking. I know, I know, some of you must think I'm totally insane but ever since year 11 and 12 Catering class I have loved cooking and then the eating part that usually follows! Hence it was a no-brainer to start with the Kitchen which I would consider the most important room.. and the most expensive! I knew that I wanted a nuetral colour and I would team that with unique door hardware to give the elegant country affect I was searching for. I would later introduce a colour in accessories.
I had my heart set on the beautiful two door ILVE oven, yes the one that you see in all the magazines next to that gorgeous girl with the spaghetti dripping down her arms..you know the one! So the oven needed to be the centre point of the kitchen! I really had no idea how much the oven was going to cost me and I can assure you that the colour quite literally left my face thta day at Clive Peters when I read the price tag. Luckily they had that oven currently in at the home show as a display and they were willing to sell me that for half price $7000.00....OUCH!
I ummed and arred but it was Mr CathD that finally made the decision that that should be our splurge item. It comes with a life time warranty and because we plan on staying a lifetime hopefully I'll be still be cooking up a storm on this masterpeice in 30 years time!
