That does not look like the same kitchen. You did a wonderful job - I especially love the added counter space - I want to say 'island' but I am not sure if it is correct. Also, the smaller the gap the nicer the grout!!
When noting detentions, you can use a white board marker on the windows. That is what I do. Good for diagrams too.
Detentions?
And thanks! It definitely doesn't look like the same space. It's a U shaped kitchen rather than an island. As the space is small, it's also our dining table and can host around 8 people with barstools, else we all eat outside on the outside table!
