View Full Version : View Out the Kitchen Window
TheCottageRose 12-23-2002, 01:51 PM Darlene got me to thinking about our view from the inside of our homes out.
She apparently has something that she really enjoys looking at and does so while washing her dishes by hand.
So, I thought it might be fun to post pics looking outside our kitchen windows.
Mine shows our shrub fence and I do enjoy watching the guys play basketball out back.
Since the stainglass blocks the view, this is taken 3 ft to the left.

And this is what I see most the time.

I hope one day to look out over a pretty english cutting garden and an herb garden with a few veggies.
If you need to email me your pics...I'll do my best to post them.
never2late2bfrugal 12-23-2002, 02:15 PM I can't post a pic -- but when I look out my kitchen window, I can see the trampoline, the picnic table, a large dirt pile that my dks play in, and some of the barn where our calves and chickens are. I also choose to handwash dishes instead of using the dishwasher. I love the view --- and also the fact that none of the kids seem to need my attention when it is kitchen cleaning time!! LOL

Michelle 12-23-2002, 02:17 PM Unfortunately my view is only of the house in back of us :rolleyes: Someday I'm going to have a ton of land and will be able to look out over lots and lots of my gardens :)
Sara Noel 12-23-2002, 03:05 PM I posted this last year, but here it is again. This is through my kitchen back door and shows a small section of the backyard.
SewCrafty 12-23-2002, 07:23 PM Here is the view from my kitchen window. I took this back in mid Nov.
TheCottageRose 12-23-2002, 09:11 PM Sara and SewCrafty....You have Gorgeous views!!!
I could wash dished by hand looking out over those lovely trees! And the snow is fabulous!
In Maryland we had a view very much like that. Deer would walk around, racoons, of course, and it was so healing.
simplemom 12-23-2002, 09:42 PM Wow! Some of you have beautiful views through your windows...
I wish I also had a view with acres and acres of land and woods...
Lucie :)
PennyPinchinPam 12-23-2002, 09:49 PM Sara,
Your view is now my desktop. ;)
Nelly 12-24-2002, 12:27 AM We have been in our new, first house for a year now and I just love the view out of the kitchen window. Beyond our fence yard and a small strip of bushes, tall grass and some trees and then a back road, is the most gorgeous view of a farm field. In the summer we'll see the crop growing. In the Fall we see the big, round wheels of hay all scattered in the field and then just beyond the field are huge trees which are next to a creek. When there is some fog, the fog cloud will be really low; this cloud will be below the top of the tree but above the ground. It is just beautiful. OUr sunsets are also spectacular. The bright oranges, pinks and golds are almost unbelievable.

cody15650 12-24-2002, 09:39 AM it didn't work:(
PennyPinchinPam 12-24-2002, 12:39 PM No kitchen window here either. :(
heaven 12-24-2002, 02:03 PM i get to see the fence and the neighbors house. Love your views though.
TheCottageRose 12-25-2002, 12:40 PM I watch that fence a lot...can't wait till the shrubs get tall enough not to see it.
But I Love to look outside...see the sky, watch the shrubs grow...they were so small, this is their second Fall.
I just htought it would be interesting to see the views.
Darlene 12-25-2002, 01:46 PM What size image can I attach?Thanks.;)
TheCottageRose 12-25-2002, 02:52 PM Darlene,
I try to set it at no larger than 100 pixels for either.
If you have a photo editor, do that, it will seem a teeny pic, but shows up bigger than it seems.
or email it to me... thecottagerose@hotmail.com and I'll do that....
I'll help anyone get their pics up, I have the editing stuff and all...so please let me make use of it.
Darlene 12-25-2002, 02:58 PM Thanks Melissa, I'll get it together soon.;)
cody15650 12-26-2002, 09:31 AM Let's try this again
TheCottageRose 12-26-2002, 11:40 AM That's Gorgeous!!!!
Well worth the wait....
learning 12-26-2002, 02:39 PM Wow, Love the pictures! The snow on the trees are beautiful!
I'm looking forward to the day we have our own home...(we're renting sm apt rt now)
doodlebug 12-26-2002, 09:57 PM Wow, I love the pictures! We don't have a kitchen window:weeping: but when we remodel we're putting in a window:D can't wait.
Darlene 12-29-2002, 09:58 AM Finally, here's the view from my kitchen window. Now you can see why I like to do dishes.
Darlene 12-29-2002, 04:21 PM Forgot to add that I love seeing everyones views. Winter wonderlands galore.:)
mrscornbread 12-29-2002, 04:24 PM Darlene, if you ever need a friend to help with dishes, just holler!!!
Darlene 12-29-2002, 09:07 PM Hey Robin... got some Rotisserie chicken and oven roasted potato dishes that could use a little attention. Maybe you'd like to wait til daylight.:D It really is heaven on earth with all the wildlife that live around here. Deer,ducks,eagles,geese,herons,fox, birds of all kinds etc. Still can't believe we found this place. I'm always looking out the windows for something.
bamamomto4 12-29-2002, 10:09 PM Wow Darlene!! I'm jealous!!!!
I love everyone views! I would post a pic but all I look at right now is a dead apple tree,clothes line and a utility building :rolleyes:
Maybe if we get snow (which I doubt) It'll cover all the ugly and be pretty enough to post apic LOL!!
TheCottageRose 12-30-2002, 12:09 AM Darlene,
That is so beautiful!!! and equally so in the Summer, isn't it?
SewCrafty 12-30-2002, 03:01 AM Ladies, your views are gorgeous!
Tammy, post one in the spring, and us in the north will be postively jealous! :D
