Other than the amazing library, my FAVORITE part of the tour of Hearst Castle was the kitchen. …

Oh the kitchen …. I will never have a kitchen this size…. sad day.

It’s approximately L shaped, and you enter from the very top of the vertical part of the L …

The first room has tons of feet of counter space (and fake beer for effect). ..

Hearst has a Frigidaire … just like us!

And then there was ALL THIS space and appliances for cooking …

look at that stove top!

And that, my friends, is a Kitchen Aid mixer ….

(that vat in the back on the left of the photo? Yea, it’s for SOUP!)

(you like all the little visual cues to tell you what was prepared here?)

So.Much.Fun.

And far superior to my current kitchen, even if I am pretty excited about finally having an oven.
