Kitchen Compromise.
Remember when my kitchen counter looked like this?
It was pretty wasn’t it? Styled with a beautiful light fixture, repurposed fruit containers from Crabtree & Evelyn and vintage salt and pepper shakers. Well, lets just say a little bit of compromise has gone on since then and the counter is currently housing a GIANT bucket of protein powder, the blender, a bottle of fish oil supplements and a box of men’s sport vitamins.
And the worst part? I’m under strict instruction not to put the powder in a glass jar with a fancy scoop, no stenciling the container and no hiding it in a cupboard. It’s killing me. But I have to remember, it’s not just my kitchen and sometimes I have a tendency to favour design and style over function. I know I’m not alone in that. I think it’s a women thing. Have you made any style or design compromises for your, less than design enthused partner lately?
I totally hear you on this one! For example, my husband’s road bike seems to have found a home in my dining room. Oy. My gentle suggestions that there’s a lot of space in the basement have not been met favorably.
I have to admit, I like the look of the first style better
BUT I know what you mean. It’s all about compromise 
Dude. Yes. I gave D his own bowl to catch all his crap – wallet, phones, keys, sunglasses, money, whatever. You think it ends up in there? Ohhhhh no. It ends up all over my pretty little kitchen counter. Hmpf.
I totally feel your pain! My husband has a drawer in the kitchen that I am forbidden to touch, but I am DYING to organize it!
Lol. I feel your pain. My husband needing a recliner was just the start of the fun. I am not a huge TV watcher, but I agreed to a TV in the kitchen, and he is trying to convince me that we need one in the bedroom. I would rather cook and eat in the kitchen and sleep in the bedroom…but I suppose sometimes you do have to compromise =(
Haha…oh, there are SUCH differences between men and women! You are a great sport for compromising!
i know EXACTLY what you mean. Husband things find themselves everywhere. I have a giant shoe rack in our huge closet and his size 12 shoes are everywhere, all around it, in other rooms…anywhere besides on the rack.
