I love our stove. The Spark came with the house. The oven heats unevenly and a little wildly. Sometimes I think the Spark considers itself an Aga: perpetually heating the room with its pilot and loose oven door. The broad space between burners stays so hot, we can plate food and keep it warm off the burners. But the stove has character. It works well enough. Heats high and simmers low. And it looks GOOD.
And it goes with the floor.
People either love this floor or hate it. What do you think?

I go back and forth on loving and hating- it hides food really well, and strangely it blends into the room so much I forget it’s there. But on close inspection, not a lover of the pattern.

This is my first time responding to a blog. Your floor must mean a lot to me. But how do I feel about it? It’s so out it’s in.(and out again)

It’s those upcurved floor-wall margins that just, well, hmmmm, how to express my feelings about them? Your kitchen is as retro as mine, though, so we retro-kitchen owners have to stick together.

It hides dirt and other small objects VERY well. And I stare at it, tracing patterns, when I’m on the phone. I think I would REALLY miss it.
