One of the biggest joys of owning an old home is discovering new things about it. The other day I was in my basement doing laundry and started thinking about the brick chimney that leads upwards from there. It made me realize that there’s a chimney hiding in my kitchen! Part...
Don’t be alarmed. If you’re trying to get to kerryandco.blogspot.com, you’re in the right place. Welcome to our new and improved blog, Burritos and Bubbly!! We’re really excited about the changes that we’re making. KerryandCo started as a way for me to talk about my new house and along the way...
As you may know, we’ve been working on getting a new garage around here for a very long time. It’s finally here! But before I share pictures of the new garage, I want to pay respects to the old one. What we called a “garage” was actually originally a horse stable,...
Today’s post is all about the final details, and the big reveal! You could scroll down to the end just to see the finished product, but really, that’s pretty much cheating. I urge you to start at the beginning. The payoff will be worth it, I promise. Last time we talked...
The bronchitis I’ve been fighting for the last two weeks really delayed this post (I’m on my second round of meds), but I’m so excited to share pictures from our last stop in Italy. I could easily share a hundred pictures with you because there was just that much worth...
Holy moly. We did so much this weekend. Two full days of work on the house and we are soooo proud of what we knocked off our to-do list. Paint the bedroom? DONE. Clean out the garage? DONE. Even time for margaritas and a picnic? DONE. We started Saturday by putting on our painting clothes and clearing...
Earlier this week, Andy shared with you our cabin kitchen layout plans, and today I’m going to show you what it’s going to look like! This is where it really gets fun (for me!). While it’s taken us a while to make all our design decisions (and we haven’t made them...
I’ve been noticing a slight shift in my taste lately. I found myself a couple days ago saying to Andy, “I’m really into neutral spaces right now”… and then I went, “whoa, three years ago me never would have dreamed of saying that!” There’s a trend right now towards lighter, brighter,...
We have good news, you guys! Our new kitchen cabinets were delivered yesterday, which means our big renovation is starting soon. Eek! Not a pretty picture. But this is our life right now. 139 boxes of kitchen cabinets and parts — that all need to get assembled. It’s exciting. And stressful. And chaotic....
Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend like we did. Saturday I had lunch with a friend and, since she’s also pregnant (so much fun!), we also went maternity clothes shopping. Yesterday Andy and I took Ruby to the Hingetown Sunday Market, where she proceeded to act horribly and...
