I love it. I hate it!
I love it because it serves many purposes.
It is the "desk" on which my children do their homework, on which my husband
It is the place where all of my children can help make
It is the "tell-all" center, where we can just chitter-chatter away.
I hate it because it serves many purposes.
It seems to be a shelter for all "homeless" items...or so my children think.
It is a junk mail magnet.
It is never 100% clean.
If the island is a mess, the whole kitchen looks a mess.
I love it.
I hate it!!

I've got one of those in my kitchen and another in my classroom.
Ugh.
However, I can't live without either one of them.
Ohhh I would hate it/love it if I had one...then again if I had one...it would mean I had a big enough kitchen! =)
i know EXACTLY what you mean!!!
Oh, I've always wanted one of those kitchen islands! I love having extra counter space to use for cooking because not only does it take me twice as long to cook but I also take up twice as much space! Just thinking about your kitchen makes me wish I had a kitchen big enough for an island.
Have you seen my island lately?????
That's funny. I was just thinking the same thing about our dining room table. It seems to have become one big caddy for all of Funny Man's stuff when he empties his pockets at the end of the day. - G
i could not agree more! why does the kitchen become the place every item of clutter tends to end up?
i hate paper clutter and its always spread over my kitchen counter.
but i do love that we have meeting place and the kids come and talk to me while i'm cooking.
so yeah, love/hate. i get it. :)
We too have an island that serves many purposes, mostly clutter. We also have a small nook that serves many purposes, clutter......more and more paper everyday whether it be tyler's school papers, bills, mail, or walk by and drop it off in that corner. gotta love it. What would we do if we had no horizontal places in our house? Where would everything go?
We have one of those weird things known as a butlers pantry stuck in the middle of the walkway between front and back of house and it is a total clutter magnet, but doesn't even have the advantage of being a place to congregate as there is no headroom thanks to the cupboards above it!
I think I have that same love/hate relationship with my entire kitchen counter!
