The Rabbit


My mother is remodeling her kitchen. It is an exciting time for her because I think she's been wanting it changed since about the day she moved in, 24 years ago. She has painted the countertop, painted the backsplash tiles, she even painted over a stained glass window in one of the cabinet doors. She's done a lot over the years to change the way the kitchen looks, but she had not yet torn down walls or taken up the floor.

Those days are coming soon! I hope she takes lots of pictures.
The thing that I have always loved in my mothers kitchen is the rabbit head. It is kind of a scary looking thing if you start to stare at it for any length of time, but for the most part, it has just been a part of the kitchen - always holding the dishtowels with such ease.

I wonder if the rabbit will be a part of the new kitchen?
