Sink Skirt and a Recipe

  Hey friends! I sure hope you are doing great! It feels like fall here in Louisiana, finally…so we enjoyed roasting marshmallows around a bonfire today 🙂 fall kitchen sink I thought, just for fun, I would share my burlap sink skirt with you. It’s just a coffee bean burlap sack cut to fit over the opening. If you have been around awhile, you may remember our recent kitchen remodel HERE. fall kitchen pears  fall kitchen pears 2  I was using an antique grainsack as the sink skirt… however, for Fall I wanted a little warmer look. So, I put the burlap skirt back on. fall kitchen burlap sink skirt And because I love changing things often, having the cabinet left open under our sink gives me several options. I just have a simple spring-rod in place…and I can switch out different fabrics for different seasons. fall kitchen bread boards Can you believe our basil is still growing strong in our garden? I like keeping some near the sink for salads and cooking. Not to mention the aroma 🙂 fall kitchen basil This is how our kitchen looks most of the time, if I’m not cooking a meal. Just plain and simple. fall kitchen vent hood Speaking of cooking… I made up my own chicken salad recipe! Can you believe it? I can’t either. rustic chicken salad I am calling it my “Rustic Chicken Salad” (I don’t why, I just like the word rustic 🙂  Here’s the recipe, in case you want to try it: 6 organic chicken breast fillets, boiled & shredded 2 hard boiled fresh chicken eggs, boiled & chopped 2 small dill pickles, chopped 2 sweet baby whole pickles, chopped 1/2 jalapeno pepper, chopped 3 slices peppered-bacon, fried crispy & chopped 8-10 black seedless grapes, chopped 1/2 cup or more mayo 2 or 3 tablespoons spicy mustard salt & pepper to taste Mix all ingredients together and enjoy on wheat bread, with chips & crackers, or on a bed of greens. fall kitchen table I added fresh baby spinach & tomato to my sandwich. (You could add or delete whatever you choose to make this recipe your own) Celery, pears, apples…but of course, I think the bacon made this delicious 🙂 rustic chicken salad sandwich And before I’m off…let me ask if you are enrolled in the Creatively Made Home E-Course? The first week has been very inspirational! Go check it out! Thanks for visiting me today 🙂 Have a lovely week! Blessings,

    Your kitchen is so beautiful, Becky. You and Mr. Buckets did such a marvelous job with the remodel.

    it's so nice to see someone else not cluttering up their counters with 'do dads'…I just got done doing the same thing this morning…I have a corner on my kitchen counter that is perplexing me though…what do you put in yours?

    love the range hood…that's awesome.

  11. I adore the clean, simple, fresh look your kitchen has, Becky! I never thought of putting oregano stems in water. Duh! lol! Your range hood is absolutely amazing, too! Love it all, girlie! 🙂 Oh….and thanks for sharing that yummy recipe! I'm making it!
