The industrial side of things

There's a well known fact that the kitchen is the heart of the home.  No doubt you have a cozy sofa there in the other room but you and your guests stay and talk for hours near the sink, sitting/leaning against the counter.  Well in this heart of the home I have desires, let me clarify.  I have wishes to fulfill.  I desire great industrial appliances that function superbly as well as look pretty darn sweet.

There is the well know Wolf range which I was sold on this weekend as we perused a showroom with full to scale kitchens and heard all the fabulous facts.  But I have had the BLUE STAR range on my mind ever since I read an article in dwell magazine some years ago about a San Fransisco family who built their dream kitchen with all the bells and whistles covered & it included the BLUE STAR range.. they had a list of all the wonderful pros.  I cannot recall many of their sweet deatils since it was "years" ago but I remember being completely convinced that was what I wanted.. and since the search is on again I find myself smitten with this product.  Maybe this week we will check out the BLUE STAR first hand at a show room here in Dripping Springs, TX.  That my friends will be the tale tale of which range I might enjoy the pleasure of cooking from.

I love shopping for the home and this past weekend was testament to the fun I will have ahead assembling a home to our liking.

Here is some industrial eye candy. {wolf, sub zero & blue star}

Oh!  & my sweet family on the 4th.. We ate breakfast before a parade at the Monument cafe in Georgetown.  Oh what we do in the summertime!
