My New Kitchen + A Video!
My New Kitchen + A Video! Here’s a full, in-depth look at my new kitchen, complete with links to find all of the major appliances, which quartz countertop I got, my pendant lighting and more!
When we were house hunting before the move here to Madison, the kitchen was the first thing I looked at. Of course I wanted an open floor plan and a big, spacious house but I was all about finding my dream kitchen. When we were walking through the house we are currently living in and own, I did not fall in love with this house. My kids did because of the back yard and the big play structure thing, complete with swings, a slide and a little fort house thing. My husband loved the neighborhood and price.
I was out voted.

I liked the house but if I’m being completely honest, I never liked the kitchen. The kitchen is the heart of our home and I spend like 75% of my time here. Maybe more when I have deadlines.
So, after 2 1/2 years of being in this house, my husband and I decided to remodel the kitchen. This was not a full, complete renovation. I did not get the white cabinets I wanted but I got my island, my quartz countertop throughout, a new back splash and all new appliances.
I am happy and very thankful.
I feel like this really is my home now and I am so happy with the new kitchen and can’t wait to entertain this summer! I’m planning on hosting a DIY sushi party, Korean food night and maybe even a tapas night!
You all know how much I love KitchenAid. I never ever ever thought I would have a double oven. I have one now and I’ve been using it (both ovens) 3-4 times a week! Granted, I am a food blogger but I know when entertaining and for the holidays, these ovens would get great use in any household!
My new refrigerator, dishwasher, hood, cook top and double oven all match!
Because I love it so much I didn’t think photos would do my new kitchen justice. So, here’s a look into my new kitchen! All product information is down below! And if you’re in the Madison area, I highly recommend Dream Kitchens, Madison Lighting, Kohler, and Shergenians! Please leave any questions in the comments section down below.
It’s simple and functional and I love it!
