Katie's 95% done condo kitchen - pics take a bit of time to load

Here is our kitchen! We still need the glass for the glass cabinet and a couple of pullouts and another spice rack, but it is mostly done. :) I will try to resize the pics because they are huge, but photobucket is really slow at the moment.

Before: view of fridge and tiny pass-through:

kszal- You can resize your pics on photobucket. Just go your album, click oe Edit, and resize to 50% of original. It's hard to see the pics when they're so large.
