quick solution...

The kitchen set up was not working for me. I needed more counter space. My plan is to have an island built, a more custom looking one. That's not going to happen anytime soon. My handyman aka HMIC is missing in action. Till then I needed a quick fix. Here's a picture of the kitchen without an island.

Pay no attention to the mess in the background. That's what it normally looks like after breakfast. As you can see there's a big empty space. That space calls for something don't you agree. I got on the Internet and found my temporary solution.

My temporary solution arrived. Time to put it together. Hired free help {aka teenager that does nothing but sleep, who shouldn't mess it up and could probably figure it out if he put his phone down} to do the work.

The job ended up taking two teenagers, a leveler and a complaining mom. Next week I'll show you the final product as well as the kitchen.
