I apologize for the lack of posts going on around here. I’m trapped in boxes and packaging tape over here. If I see a roll of tape I’m going to throw it out of the window! And boxes – I’m so tired of them! They are going to haunt me for quite some time.

The hardest part so far is trying to find room for everything. Our new apartment is smaller than our last apartment. It’s like trying to fit 10 lbs of sugar in a 5 lb container.  So I’m going to have to put my organization skills to the test and see what I can do! But in due time everything will be unpacked and have a place to go!

But our new place has a killer view. You have to see the beautiful view from my living room. It’s absolutely gorgeous.

I wanted to show you the beautiful home for my cookbooks. It’s the Lack Wall shelf from Ikea. And it’s a steal at $49.99!!  It’s like the perfect space for them. Although as you can see, I don’t really have much room to grow. If push comes to shove I can always find a new home for my Staub Vertical Roaster (that I absolutely adore!).

I mean seriously – wasn’t that Wall shelf MADE for that kitchen?

It’s funny because I bought that wall shelf when we lived in our old apartment. And Mr. Curly Fry kept going on and on about how I didn’t need that, it wasn’t necessary, blah blah blah. Well when we moved into our new place and I put it there, he said it looks great and we may need to get another one. What?! I made him repeat himself. That was music to my ears.

So that’s what I’m up to. Unpacking. And it’s really no fun. But what I am looking forward to is getting back into the kitchen! I can’t wait to cook and bake.

Something new for my kitchen is coming via UPS today, and I’m SO excited!!! Stay tuned to see what it is!
