Color in the Kitchen
This is NOT my kitchen. I know it is beautiful and it is very modern and quite fashionable right now, but it just could never be my kitchen. I need color–fashion be damned! THIS is my kitchen. I know–you thought it was a Mexican restaurant, but it is, indeed,

When I read that this rounds prompt was ‘Kitchen Inspiration’ my heart sank. Sorry Regina but the first thing I did was google the opposite of inspiration. I found disincentive, discouragement, hindrance, characterless, uninspiring, unstimulating and many more. Actually I think ‘apathetic’ best described my reaction to the prompt.
