He's At It Again

Last winter, Doug gave us a stylish solution to losing heat in our kitchen.


After all, we do have this ginormous cubby that seems to be a doorless window to nowhere. The girls think of it as a place to play Rapunzel. I think of it as a great place to hide/store all the holiday decorations. Unless there is a large, sturdy ladder, no one is going near that place. Perfect.

So in the winter, we were losing heat. Now that it is the hottest summer on record (yikes!), we can actually feel the drafts of heat descending upon us from that hole up there.

And Doug still doesn't really know what he wants to do for a cupboard door. Me, I want it to disappear visually (not in actuality, since it really is a great holiday storage area). So a flat door or two with simple handles seems perfect. Doug is unconvinced.

Which is why we now have a large piece of cardboard duct-taped to the hole. Just as stylish as the paper he used before, don't you think? Oh, man. At least it's not so hot in here.

Right?

  1. Hopefully he'll get a round tuit and really do something about it before it's Sophie's turn to play Rapunzel ;)

  2. I'm afraid the duct-tape obsession comes from our mother. Sorry about that.
