Glade Blooming Peony & Cherry

I have been showing you around my house this week and now it’s time to move to the busiest room of the house…my kitchen!

I spend a lot of time in here. I cook for my guys, develop recipes for the site and bake just for fun. Of course when I have company over, this is often where folks congregate. I anticipated this being the popular space when we were designing the house and decided on two big islands so that there would be plenty of room.

The bar island is a great area. There is a top level for the boys to sit and do their homework or have a snack. Plus when friends visit they can pull up a stool and hang out with me as I do last minute preparations. Then the lower level is perfect for setting out big buffets so folks can munch as they mingle.

I also have tons of counter space around the perimeter of my kitchen which is fantastic. I don’t like a lot of clutter so there’s always room for anything that I might need to do.

I spend most of my time on my prep island. It’s the perfect height and with my handy little sink, I really have everything I need in one place. You can’t tell but I have a pull out trash can and a trash compactor on the other side, plus a cabinet under the prep sink. It really is a wonderful place to cook.

I spent a long time designing this kitchen so that it would work for me. As you can see I opted for tons of drawers – that was an awesome decision! My big bar island has massive storage which is fantastic. I am not sure there’s anything I would change. It really is my perfect kitchen.

Since this is the space my guests and I spend the most time in, I like to keep it tidy and smelling great. The easiest way to make sure your kitchen always smells uplifting is with Glade®.

I keep my Glade® Wax Melts going pretty much all the time. The warmer is just part of the decor in my kitchen. Each package of wax melts lasts up to 96 hours – continually filling my space with scents I love.

As you’ll soon see, I am a bit of a wax melt junkie. I have them all over my house.. Best part? They are easy to use…simply pop in a little cube and go. That’s just my speed!

As you can see I currently have the Glade® Blooming Peony & Cherry™ fragrance in my warmer. The new variety is a combination of fresh peony and pink roses mixed with cherry. I think that apart from my cooking skills, the alluring and uplifting scent is what draws everyone into my kitchen.
