Some of you have been asking, with all the outdoor pictures P and I are taking, what does the inside of our famous little blog cabin look like? So, without further ado... come on in and take a look around! It is cute, cozy and comfy! It's great for a wonderful weekend away in the country! Right now it is 1 large room with a full bathroom off the back. We have a queen size pull out that we crash on for the weekends, a small TV and DVD so we can watch some movies on rainy days and an every cabin "must have"...a trunk full of board games and a pair of snow shoes! Once the foundation is done we will start our addition for our new bigger bathroom and a brand new kitchen! It will be so wonderful to have a kitchen with a large fridge, a stove, a sink and a small dishwasher **sigh**Out of everything, I am looking forward to the stove the most. Right now our only means of cooking is a microwave and over an open campfire. We use the campfire for cooking the most and the food tastes unbelievably delicious, but it take a lot of time and prep work to get the food and coals ready. Having a stove and some counter top for prep work will be an amazing treat.
In the picture to the left you can see my most prized blog cabin possession to date! Our new red propane stove! This baby runs off a thermostat! It's great for early spring and fall and I can't tell you how wonderful it is to walk in and push a button to turn on the heat. We used to have a wood stove and that got old really quick! When it's freezing inside and your teeth are chattering finding dry wood, kindling, paper and matches is a chore - the last thing I burned was A through M in our phonebook ;)...not to mention the 20 minutes it takes to get the fire started AND, once it is started, it's not over! Keeping a wood stove lit is a whole other ball game! The worst was getting up 4 or 5 times a night to feed the fire and that was interrupting my beauty sleep so it had to go. The one thing I do like about wood stoves is smell of wood burning in the fall, but our neighbor has a wood stove (sucker) so we get to enjoy all the perks of a wood stove without the hassle :)
Anyways, take a look around and when you're done you can show yourself out...don't forget to lock up :)
Nicely done, J. Can't wait until the fall! :^)
ReplyDeleteThat cabin looks awfully cozy. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnna, Matt and the wee one. xoxo
I like where you put the chair. It must give you more room. I need to get up there again soon. Need a good fire and good company.
