Kitchen Declared a Disaster Area

I have so many memories of the kitchen in my childhood home. The science experiments we conducted on the stove, the time a water fight turned ugly and we shot our mother with the outside garden hose through the window, hiding my sister’s favorite stuffed animal in the oven, exploding things in the microwave, storing snowballs in the freezer so we could have snowball fights in the summer, and the time I had a fight with my sister and she almost broke my neck jamming it between the refrigerator and the back door. The list could go on and on, but there is one common theme to these memories... none of my childhood memories of the kitchen have anything to do with what kitchens are for; cooking, eating or entertaining. This is because this kitchen was poorly designed, horribly maintained by the previous owner and incredibly inadequate for doing anything other then boiling water. With your help, all that can change, read more to find out how…

My childhood kitchen needs a little TLC, the kind that comes from $25,000 and a professional decorator. Here is where your help comes in. Visit my mother’s page on the We network’s “Style Our Space” contest and vote that her kitchen is a total disaster. You can vote her kitchen as a “10” every day so we can see once and for all if my mother is really a bad cook, or if it was just because her kitchen didn’t allow her inner Emeril to shine. Vote early, vote often and spread the word... if this kitchen wins, Mom will cook us all dinner.
